The turkey certainly deserves impeachment, I applaud them for at least looking into it.

The House Judiciary Committee will consider impeaching IRS Commissioner John Koskinen in upcoming hearings.

Stop "considering" and just get on with it.

Its an election year, expect lots of theatrics that ultimately achieve nothing other than helping Hillary with her claim that Republicans are mean and wasting everyone's time with baseless wild goose chases.

This was appropriate two years ago. The damage is done, and lasting.

The GOP majority in both houses has proven worthless.

Looks like they’ve been holding this for the election cycle.

Goody. Fire the SOB and arrest his girlfriend Lois.

Ah, more all talk, no action.

Won’t hold my breath. Lerner should be in prison now, not enjoying her ill earned retirement.

"The House Judiciary Committee will consider impeaching IRS Commissioner John Koskinen in upcoming hearings."

Goodlatte will "consider" it until he is re-elected in November, and then he will conveniently forget about it.

It would be hard to portray Koskinen as a victim of a partisan Republican attack. He is looks like and is a no good arrogant SOB. In my mind I see him wearing a black uniform with lightning bolt SS and a skull on his lapel. His defense will be “I va just following orders.” If they can’t impeach that guy they cannot impeach anybody.

Paul Ryan promised this when he took the speaker’s office.

Koskinen is a partisan Democrat hack.

The hearings should include Lois Lerner.

Jordan said that Koskinen "has most assuredly violated the public trust."
Thank you Captain Obvious.

Argggg, here they (DC establishment pukes) go again, more smoke and mirrors and a waste of time and our money to find something to then do nothing about. Just imagine how much of this crap could have and should have been avoiding had the congress impeached the POS currently in the WH the very first time he broke/abused the law by using his unauthorized power

John Koskinen looks like he is related to James Carvel

Should have been done immediately when he made clear he was a non-cooperative actor in a corruption investigation.

I’d like to see this. Maybe he did, maybe he didn’t know about Lerner. But he has an attitude that he’s a shining knight of government service with a glorious record and is only there as a fine example of what a great bureaucrat can be. The behavior of the IRS is a disgrace. He looks like a fattened-up version of James Carville.
