CAN LOIS LERNER AND THE OBAMANITES SPELL CRIMINAL
CONSPIRACY?????????
Breaking Report: Lerner
Conspired With Justice Dept. In IRS Targeting
The email exchange
between Lerner and Flax was completed just one day before the former infamously
blamed “low-level” IRS agents in Cincinnati for the improper targeting of
conservatives.
An
initial email, sent May 9, 2013, from Lerner to then-Acting IRS Commissioner
Steven T. Miller’s chief of staff Nikole Flax, attempted to coordinate action
between the IRS and Eric Holder’s Justice Department to take down certain
nonprofit organizations.
I got a
call today from Richard Pilger Director Elections Crimes Branch at DOJ … He
wanted to know who at IRS the DOJ folk s [sic] could talk to about Sen.
Whitehouse idea at the hearing that DOJ could piece together false statement
cases about applicants who “lied” on their 1024s –saying they weren’t planning
on doing political activity, and then turning around and making large visible
political expenditures. DOJ is feeling like it needs to respond, but want to
talk to the right folks at IRS to see whether there are impediments from our
side and what, if any damage this might do to IRS programs.
The
senator she referenced, Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, held a hearing the
previous month during which he wondered why the DOJ had not prosecuted
nonprofits the IRS claimed had made false statements regarding their political
activity.
The
emails, attained through a Freedom of Information Act request by Judicial
Watch, included Flax’s apparent approval of Lerner’s proposal, which was sent
the following day.
I think
we should do it – also need to include CI [Criminal Investigation Division], which we can help
coordinate. Also, we need to reach out to FEC. Does it make sense to consider
including them in this or keep it separate?
According
to the emails, Lerner contacted IRS senior technical adviser Nancy Marks to
coordinate a meeting with the DOJ and, possibly, members of the Federal
Elections Commission.
The email
exchange between Lerner and Flax was completed just one day before the former
infamously blamed “low-level” IRS agents in Cincinnati for the improper
targeting of conservatives. Later the same month, she refused to answer
questions during testimony before the House Oversight Committee.
She
retired from the IRS in September and, earlier this month, was found in
contempt of Congress by the House Ways and Means Committee.
