Not buying any of you that. This corrupt, lawless, Obama IRS man should have been fired day one. Trump has no one to blame but himself for all the leaks and outright sabotage coming from Obama holdovers that he has failed to fire. He is going to continue having his policies actively undermined untill he drains the swamp of corrupt far left Obama appointees.

President Trump should get the Obama radical Federal Prosecutors fired and replaced first.
JK then must go.

You don’t need a tinfoil hat to wonder if this has anything to do with Trump’s tax returns.

The Trump admin in general needs to step up its nomination of second and third tier political appointees across all its departments and agencies — and not have so many of those they do nominate be pals of the GOPe/Priebus.

Somehow Trump apparently still doesn’t understand this.

One or two things at a time, please. He’ll get around to it, after the audit is finished.

No. Appeasing left wing criminals never did anyone any good. Ever.

Koskinen reminds of those arrogant Nazi’s who stood trial at Nurenenberg. I picture him wearing a black SS uniform as he says “I vas just following orders.”

Easy one

If you are going to put the full court press on someone better he’s working for you.

Trump’s playing 3D chess -they’re playing checkers.

Lurking’


If Trump fires him he loses leverage.

The IRS head is obligated to cooperate under oath with the House Oversight Committee while he is still in the employment of the US Government as part of his job duties.

Once he is a private citizen no longer employed by the IRS his obligations are reduced.

The REAL question is, “Why has the House Oversight Committee not yet called this guy in to grill him and force disclosure of the 7000 “found” documents the IRS hid under Obama while he is still a government employee?”

He can't hide behind Obama anymore.

This is why I don’t trust anyone in campaign mode and even after. Things that are so obvious to me, and everyday people, either doesn’t matter to them or they just don’t seem to get it.
If I was elected President I’d go all in....balls out....and let them talk their crap. They’re going to do it anyway....are doing it. Might as well make things right for the people who elected you.
Obama did it. He got his agenda through anyway he could no didn’t care what anyone said. He’d just call them liars and move to the next item.
Seems no one has the guts to do that but Democrats.

“President Trump should fire Commissioner Koskinen and replace him with someone that will bring integrity and competence to the IRS and defund the IRS and proceed to abolish the whole thing.

FIXED!

I have been wondering about this too. I hope he is earning his salary by revealing where all the bodies are buried. Whatever the reason though, President Trump has earned my trust.

Nearly two months into the Trump administration, the IRS commissioner House Republicans once threatened with impeachment remains on the job.

... Republican Study Committee Chairman Mark Walker, R- N.C., along with 53 other House Republicans, also wrote a letter asking the new president to remove Koskinen.

Well why didn't the House and Senate (both Republican controlled) follow through with impeachment at the time?

I know, I know, we are talking about the Republican towers of jelly that populate that Congress. No balls to do it at that time, so now they ask Trump to do it.

What a pathetic lot.

May be it is because the IRS came up with 6,924 documents related to the TEA Party targeting.

President Trump has shown than he normally has a reason for the actions he takes. While I cannot for the life of me figure why he would keep the lying, ethically challenged, smarmy Koskinen any longer than he has to I trust that President Trump knows what he is doing.

Trump thinks the smirking criminal in charge of the IRS is going to heed his EO to not follow through on the fine for failure to engage bozo care?

This enemy of conservatives should have been fired in week 1 of Pres. Trump’s term. He must go!

Lincoln cleaned out his swamp. So should the Donald.
