Issa Implicates Cummings in IRS Targeting of True the Vote


Ahhh the game is afoot! These documents produced by Rep Darrell Issa puts the heavy resistance and trivializing of the IRS scandal we have seen from Elijah Cummings during all the Oversight hearings into perspective now doesn't it! Clearly Lois Lerner knows things people in high places do not want her to share leaving you to wonder, regardless of Cummings response (below), who she is protecting!? Maybe Sub-President Jarrett or other regime members prepared to fall on the sword for his royal majesty emperor crybaby?

And a game is all this is don't you know! We are never going to get a straight answer out of anyone until someone gets locked up. You can be sure Cummings will now change the narrative calling this case witch hunt against anyone who defies the evil GOP. He will whine and carryon about the wasted tax dollars investigating a non-event as he tries to make this about him again!

The communications at one point involved Lois Lerner, the ex-IRS official whom Issa's panel is poised to hold in contempt of Congress on Thursday for refusing to provide testimony about her involvement in targeting conservative groups.

“The IRS and the Oversight Minority made numerous requests for virtually identical information from True the Vote, raising concerns that the IRS improperly shared protected taxpayer information with Rep. Cummings’ staff,” a statement from the Oversight panel reads.

According to Issa, Cummings and his staff sought “copies of all training materials used for volunteers, affiliates, or other entities,” from True the Vote...

...In his response, Cummings said the GOP has falsely accused him of wrongly contacting the IRS about True the Vote. Cummings said in the letter that he has publicly stated his interest in finding more about True the Vote, which supports voter ID laws that Cummings opposes...more
