President Obama Fires The Head Of The IRS For Targeting Conservatives (Video)

Oh, This Just Got Serious!


U.S. President Barack Obama has fired the head of the IRS, Steven Miller, over the current controversy, regarding the agency targeting conservatives based on political leanings. Obama fired IRS Acting Commissioner Steven Miller, regarding an upsetting scandal the Judiciary Report broke first, after being targeted by the agency, in conjunction with the FBI (The FBI And Ethics). The president branded the misconduct by select IRS employees "inexcusable." Congress is conducting its own review of the matter.

Due to items I wrote on the Judiciary Report, criticizing the government, my mother and I were audited three years in a row and sent a defamatory letter last year that brought the issue to a head, resulting in me informing the agency of my intent to sue to rectify the problem. Once again, the matter has since been resolved, the IRS retracted their claims and without litigation.

IRS targeted groups that criticized the government, IG report says

At various points over the past two years, Internal Revenue Service officials targeted nonprofit groups that criticized the government and sought to educate Americans about the U.S. Constitution, according to documents in an audit conducted by the agency’s inspector general.

The documents, obtained by The Washington Post from a congressional aide with knowledge of the findings, show that on June 29, 2011, IRS staffers held a briefing with senior agency official Lois G. Lerner in which they described giving special attention to instances where "statements in the case file criticize how the country is being run." Lerner, who oversees tax-exempt groups for the agency, raised objections and the agency revised its criteria a week later.
