CHUCK SCHUMER CALL ON IRS TO CRACK DOWN ON TEA PARTY FUNDING: ‘REDOUBLE THOSE EFFORTS IMMEDIATELY’

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that the Internal Revenue Service should be used more aggressively to keep Tea Party funding in check, explaining that this would help “weaken” and “exploit” the conservative movement.

Schumer during remarks to the Center for American Progress argued that Tea Party groups have an unfair financial advantage over left-leaning groups because of the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision, at one point even suggesting that President Barack Obama go around Congress to impose stricter campaign finance laws.

Long term consequences and all.

There is no IRS..... there are lots of people who are employed by the Internal Revenue Service. The question will boil down to can you separate the wheat from the Rat scum

Federal employees should be unemployed so that they can find honest work. It will cleanse their souls.

Unfortunately I believe the GOP establishment quietly supports this too.

So... who actually sics the IRS on conservative groups (i.e., enemies of the State)? Believe that has to come directly from POTUS as chief of the administrative branch of government.

Cheesy Chuckie can rant & urge Obama to `get those rightwingers’ but he lacks authority to actually send in the flying monkeys. Sure, Chuckie could threaten the IRS (”Do you want me to f*** with your budget!!?”) but that would be counterproductive.

If the IRS makes a move, it will be in direct sunlight. Nobody operates in a vacuum anymore, this isn’t East Germany. Schumer is a despicable fascist, but his power is not unlimited; he even had to speak before a nongovernmental group to advance his undemocratic agenda.

I agree, Schumer just did what unseated Nixon. Time to remove Schumer from office.

...Schumer have decided to go full Nazi on conservatives.

It is like the Nazis of NYC need Lebensraum in upstate. Next step will be concentration camps for upstaters who refused to leave.

The fact that an American Senator holds this point of view and is supported my a majority of his electors should provide a clue as to the ultimate outcome of our republic.

Worse: This asshat, a sitting United States Senator is calling on the Internal Revenue Service to harass average, ordinary American's who support fiscal responsibility and are working LEGALLY to effect change to force the Government to do the same.

His asking the IRS to harass everyday, American Citizens is an IMPEACHABLE offense in the United States Senate. He should immediately be CENSURED and REMOVED.

It's just too bad we have "leaders" like John Boehner who lack the testicular fortitude (read that: "BALLS") to do thier jobs as House Speaker.
