Trey Gowdy Goes Off on IRS Commish for Claiming No Criminal Actions at IRS...
The Blaze ^

Posted on 06/23/2014 8:35:56 PM PDT by TigerClaws

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) late Monday criticized IRS Commissioner John Koskinen for claiming there’s no evidence of criminal misconduct at the IRS over the targeting scandal, even though he hasn’t bothered to examine the criminal code.

“You have already said multiple times today that there was no evidence that you found of any criminal wrongdoing,” Gowdy said. “I want you to tell me what criminal statutes you’ve evaluated.”

“So that’s Jay Carney and the president both inserting themselves into the IRS scandal,” Gowdy said. “And you want to blame us for bringing the White house into it?”

I watched it as it happened. Gowdy destroyed him.

One of the best parts of the meeting was when Issa cut the mike of the democRAT scum defending Koskinen.

They’re like cats playing with a mouse, fun to watch but in the end it’s going to get away.

I wonder what percentage of IRS employees during the time Lois lost hers?

Did any other IRS employees lose theirs too or was it just the one that pleaded the 5th?

If she is just one in 91,000, that would make you go huuuummmm.......

“One of the best parts of the meeting was when Issa cut the mike of the democRAT scum defending Koskinen.”

The Democrats fawning over this IRS hack is something I can’t fathom. Do they really think that showing their unwavering support of IRS thuggery is going to win them votes in the midterms?

Maybe I shouldn’t say anything...

Something was said about having all her emails on tape but it was too complicated to retrieve them.

It bothers me how Koskinen is not at all worried. Kind of like watching Michael testify in The Godfather. Like he’s protected.

Why would he be worried?

How many scandals and hearings have we been through in 6 years and nobody was ever held to account for anything. WHy would it be any different this time?

I agree. Gowdy kind of seems like one of the good guys, but I saw grandstanding there. There needs to be a trial. There needs to be prosecution. People need to be in jail.

I say again: I saw grandstanding. Nobody is DOING anything.

He is. And you could see him plotting his retaliation as he sat there smirking.
