Proof IRS and Justice Department Colluded to Prosecute Conservatives




The biggest fear every American should have is the criminalization of political opponents.  This happens all the time in third world countries.  The Obama administration has demonstrated they’re not above the tactics of a banana republic dictatorship.

Judicial Watch has proof the IRS and the Justice Department colluded to prosecute conservative non-profits as a means to eliminate opposition in a presidential election.  Here is an excerpt from the New York Post:


Via Freedom of Information Act lawsuits, the watchdog group Judicial Watch just got evidence of the plot. A “DOJ Recap” on an Oct. 8, 2010, meeting tells how officials from the three agencies discussed “several possible theories to bring criminal charges under FEC law” against groups “posing” as tax-exempt nonprofits.


As part of the project, the IRS handed the FBI 21 computer disks with 1.23 million pages of confidential IRS returns from 113,000 nonprofit 501(c)(4) groups — nearly every 501(c)(4). This, though federal law generally bans the IRS from sharing such data


People should be prosecuted for this, but we all know Democrats aren’t subject to the laws like the rest of us.

EPA to Investigate Bias Against Conservative Groups





The federal government is corrupt from head to foot.  Here is a report of another agency abusing its power:
The Environmental Protection Agency’s inspector general will review claims the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) refuses to waive public records fees for conservative groups while granting the waivers for environmental organizations.

Acting Administrator Robert Perciasepe asked the agency’s inspector general to review claims after GOP lawmaker accusations of a double standard.

The charges came up Thursday during a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing, where Republicans compared the EPA's actions to the IRS’s targeting of conservative groups.
Perciasepe told lawmakers he’s asking the inspector general to help conduct a “programmatic audit” of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request fee decision.

The action follows a May 14 report by the conservative Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) that claims the EPA waives the fees for major environmental groups more than 90 percent of the time, while often denying fee waivers for CEI, Judicial Watch and other groups.
