Report: Obama used IRS to push Obamacare
wnd.com ^ | 10/4/2017 | Bob Unruh

It’s no secret that the Internal Revenue Service was used as a political weapon by the Obama administration – just talk to any of the thousands of people affected by the agency’s obstruction of conservative, Christian and tea party organizations at the time Obama was seeking re-election.

Now, government documents have been obtained through a Judicial Watch lawsuit that show the scope of the abuse was much broader, including one revealing the White House used the IRS to pressure Americans to support Obamacare.

“So now we have more evidence of more Obama IRS abuses targeting innocent Americans – all in the name of Obamacare,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “No wonder it took a federal lawsuit and court order to get these documents – as they show the Obama White House and its agencies were happy to threaten and treat Americans like lab rats in order to bolster Obamacare.”

His organization announced Monday it has obtained two more batches of documents.

The documents, Judicial Watch said, show the Obama IRS “coordinated with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Obama White House Behavioral Sciences ‘Team’ in a $5 million program to pressure Americans to sign up for Obamacare.”

The Kenyanesian Usurpation corrupted every agency of the federal government.

There were excellent reasons for the founders to insist on a natural born citizen, born here of citizen parents, as President.

Obama told us he was born a British subject because of his foreign national father.
Children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their foreign national parents(s).

It's the 'democrat way'... a subset of the 'Chicago Way'...

This report may be new, but this information is not. It’s part of Obamacare that the IRS encourages people to sign up for Obamacare. I think it’s a terribly bad policy, but it’s not new.

We are beginning to get a better picture of how sinister the Obama presidency really was (its still functioning via OFA). The heinous "legacy" of the Obama presidency is writ large.....so much damage inflicted in so little time.

Obama has turned every federal agency into a political weapon: the FBI, the IRS, NSA, CIA, the UN, even the FISA court.

Trump now holds all of Obama's secrets. Secrets about Obama and his factotums weaponizing and corrupting everything good about democracy for their insatiable thirst for power, for their despicable "progressive" ideology, their obsession w/ a permanent Democrat majority, and for their twisted political ambitions.

We, the people, will make very sure that the Obama Crime Syndicate's activities prove to be their undoing.

Yet another reason to abolish the IRS!

The USA will never be FRee so long as the Marxist inspired progressive income tax and the Internal Revenue Service are embedded in our legal code!

Help us replace the income tax with the FAIRtax and abolish the IRS!

Go to https://www.fairtax.org to find out how you can help.

The real FLOOD of information on the corruption of the democrat party will happen once Robert Mueller's witch hunt is put to rest.

What was their first hint? The hiring of thousands of IRS agents?

Good point......I surmise Trump is counting down to midterms to drop a trainload of Obamacrap on the Democrats.
