Guessing that this is the guy that told Lois Lerner what to do. One of millions of America’s enemies.

The tax code is so complex that pretty much everyone is guilty of tax crimes whether they know it or not.

the Trump Foundation is a nonprofit organization that is entrusted with money to be used exclusively for public charitable purposes. Any use of foundation money to benefit himself is akin to theft.

That they can keep a straight face making these charges while ignoring the hundreds of millions of dollars of graft generated by the Clinton Family Slush Fund through the sale of U.S. foreign policy is mind boggling.

Yeah, because the IRS totally ignores billionaires and doesnt give them enough scrutiny that they are forced to hire armies of tax lawyers

Tocqueville early on noted America’s private charitable associations and thought them somewhat unique.

Carnegie was probably the first modern foundation, but it wasn’t until the Income Tax Amendment that they became a political scam.

The “sculpture” unsecured and left in a public place was an attractive nuisance.

IOWs out of law school he couldn't get a real job.

Hackney was probably part of the CABAL against all the Conservative groups!

Let’s acknowledge the bright side. The [R]ats are getting flushed out.

Specializing in the targeting of Conservative groups, no doubt.

It’s fair to ask why he quit. Or did they fire him.

“These are not easy charges to prove, but the Trump Foundation is a nonprofit organization that is entrusted with money to be used exclusively for public charitable purposes. Any use of foundation money to benefit himself is akin to theft.”

With the obvious exceptions of the Clinton Foundation and Obama’s “Organizing For America”.

What the heck kind of language is this? The IRS should “go after” Trump? Is that what the IRS does goes after people who disagree with leftist policies?

If we didn’t know it before we do now. Our entire government has been weapon-ized against the right and the worst part is we taxpayers pay for it. We are paying the salaries of people who hate us.

Government agencies are “going after” people who they don’t like and the silence coming from Republican leadership is deafening.

Every day I get a little more sick to my stomach.

Didn’t their parents teach them the story about the boy who cried wolf?

Maybe he didn’t have parents? That could be the problem here.

Rage is all they got.

Trump is making the Democrat Party, and their Big Media pals, look like a bunch’o’bozos. Plus, they have no leader, no policies, and no energy.

So, they’re desperate. Expect more sleazy attacks right up until they get clobbered in November.
