(CNSNews.com) - The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has cancelled its purchase order for surveillance equipment, which had included coffee trays with hidden cameras and cameras that could be hidden in plants.

The IRS issued the cancellation on Wednesday at 11:49 a.m.

CNSNews.com published an initial story about the IRS's purchase order on Monday afternoon--and that story was linked on The Drudge Report.

As CNSNews.com reported, the IRS had issued a rush order for the surveillance equipment last Thursday, June 6. That order originally carried a deadline of Monday, June 10. Among the items the IRS sought to purchase were four coffee trays with hidden cameras, four cameras that could be concealed in plants, and two "concealed clock radios."

Canceled? I just bet they did. Which other agency is buying them on their behalf?

To be reordered later through other agencies.

This administration is full of liars, cheats, and dodgers of the truth.

Like cockroaches they scurry away when the light is shined on them. If it’s so dishonorable for this order to have been placed, then those people who originated, authorized, approved or placed the order should be fired.
