The IRS’ Washington, D.C. headquarters targeted conservative groups in part due to pressure from Democratic Sen. Carl Levin, according to emails obtained by the watchdog group Judicial Watch and reviewed by The Daily Caller.
Levin, chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs’ permanent subcommittee on investigations, wrote a March 30, 2012 letter to then-IRS commissioner Douglas Shulman discussing the “urgency” of the issue of possible political activity by nonprofit applicants. Levin asked if the IRS was sending out additional information requests to applicant groups and citing an IRS rejection letter to a conservative group as an example of how the IRS should be conducting its business.

The KKK Kapo Karl Levin
I sure hope there’s more e-mails tying Elijiah Cummings to this.
hopefully enough to get him kicked off the Oversight Committee for his obstruction and lies
Levin has decided not to run this November...
one has to wonder if this news might be “why”...
The November race will be between Gary Peters(D) and Terri Lynn Land(R).
Carl Levin got 63% of the vote in 2008.
Exactly!
Mark Levin on IRS emails: Carl Levin should be dragged in front of a federal grand jury
if there is no consequence, then there is no crime
How many times did the IRS head visit the White House? This scandal goes much higher than that putz, Levin.
” - - - Then-IRS deputy commissioner Steven T. Miller sent Levin a 16-page response explaining that the flexibility of IRS rules allow for the agency to “prepare individualized questions and requests.”
Is this the same official that visited the WH over 130 times?
One time was to accompany his son for the WH Easter Egg hunt?
This should be a huge scandal. However, CNN is still having a fit over Sterling (when I last checked) and probably will get back to discussion of not finding the airplane.
By all that is right and holy criminal charges should follow...
Loathsome POS.
Just another phony scandal. Move along, folks, nothing to see here.
I think Terri Land is going to pull this one off. She has both tea party support and establishment backing plus she’s consistently leading.
She’s no firebrand but she’s no Olympia Snowe either.
It definitely is, to any decent person, a crime.
However, we’re not talking about decent persons here.
In fact, there really is no other reason to attain power,
in a leftist’s mind, than to do exactly THIS with it.
