Judge to IRS attorneys: I’m about to charge Koskinen personally with contempt

I pray the judge is not *all talk*.

I pray that he cannot be bought.

“I get such a kick out of the the guy the guy that called him :Kockskin!”

It’s been a lot of years since I took an English grammar class. Is that what you call a prepuce-itional phrase?

[Mr Apple]

I’m sure it goes to Pa. Avenue too but i wouldn’t be surprised if this was Jarret all the way.

Exactly right!

Another installment of “washington kabuki theatre.” In this episode, the Federal judiciary acts as if they will do something.

[Sooth2222]

Would a contempt citation in this case prompt Obama to fire Koskinen?

No, it would prompt Obama to nominate Koskinen to the Supreme Court, should a vacancy arise.

[Nep Nep]

Koskinen will go to jail before snitching. He knows the consequences of telling the truth will be more severe than anything a judge can mete out.

[Principled]

Elvis did it better

[NFHale]

SO the questions I have are:

If the judge does indeed hold him in contempt of court, what is the penalty, and who enforces it?

Do US Marshalls come in and arrest the guy immediately and haul him off in bracelets? And does he spend some time in the pokey?

AND - is that pokey time just for contempt and NOT for the larger crime he committed by targeting American Citizens because of their political beliefs?

And what about Lerner? Shouldn’t she be held in contempt as well?

[DAC21]

Stop the threats Sullivan, time for action. De-scale that lizard.

[Darksheare]

Judge, don’t say it, do it.
Then toss the creep into jail to see if it jogs a memory.

[EXCH54FE]

Quit talking and DO IT!!!

[Leep]

We have been duped.

[DAC21]

And while we are at it, Redummicans should pass a law that pulls retirement bennies for any Gov. employee found in contempt of the courts. Most have pilfered the Treasury during their careers and don’t need it anyway.

[US_MilitaryRules]

Stop abouting and start prosecuting!

[ReaganGeneration2]

The GOPe House has the power, but will never, ever even try this. Rescind funding for:
* IRS
* Planned Parenthood
* Dept of State (non-essentials)
* Dept of Justice (non-essentials)

I am interested is watching this not only here but August 18th with Judge Hanen in Texas who has Ordered Homeland Security head Jae Johnson to show cause why he should no be held in contempt for the Judges order to stop the Presidents immigration dictate.
The US Marshal service is a branch of DOJ. Will they follow the order of their Federal Judge or will DOJ violate the constitution again. It could set off quite scene id DOJ orders the Marshals not to detain Johnson when he is held in contempt. Same in this case.

[OafOfOffice]

Exactly what Koskinen reminds me of. The alien is better looking. Koskinen is a evil man

[BigEdLB]

"Lizard-faced? Quit insulting me!"

[OafOfOffice]

Reptilian people

[I want the USA back]

And how about the other shriveled up old hag, lerner?
