The IRS Scandal, Day 1250

IRS Logo 2World Tribune, Unforgiven: IRS Has Not Only Continued Its War on Tea Party Groups, But Taken It Public:

After admitting it targeted tea party groups for special scrutiny in 2013, the IRS promised to process the groups’ applications in a timely fashion.

Three years later, tea party groups say the tax agency has begun a new round of harassment.

The IRS has sent a new set of “prodding questions” to the groups, demanding still more information, according to an Oct. 4 report by The Washington Times.

The IRS also publicly released one of the sets of questions it sent to the Texas Patriots Tea Party (TPTP), which made public secret taxpayer information that is supposed to be protected, the group’s lawyer said. ...

Two other tea party groups that were targeted by the IRS are still awaiting approval. Unite in Action, a Michigan-based group, applied in 2010, and the Albuquerque Tea Party applied nearly seven years ago, in December 2009.
