IRS officials on a scheduled visit to Congress Wednesday bore the brunt of GOP criticism of the agency for Wednesday's revelation that it awarded Equifax a $7.25 million no-bid contract to maintain taxpayers' confidentiality.

"This is an abject failure," said Rep. Jackie Walorski, R-Ind. "This is beyond abject failure, it's a management failure."

Even though they have Congress and the White House, they still don’t seem to mind that:

Koskinen is still there .... I find it hard to believe that he’s so good at his job, that he can’t be replaced.

Koskinen hasn’t been investigated

Lois Lerner hasn’t been legitimately investigated, charged and convicted of what she did.

They just hired back a couple of hundred “former” employees that were mixed up in all sorts of stuff

They don’t care about any of that, why in the hell should they care about this?

This is a no-bid contact, too. Everyone should be outraged.

Who authorized the contract? This didn’t happen overnight.

How do we find out who it is? What is the connection to Equifax since there is probably a quid pro quo involved somewhere down the line.

Hold the outrage. This is business-as-usual in criminal WDC. Pathetic.

Everybody here does understand that Congress could give a rats ass about We the People, all that matters is who from K street is coming over, how much money do they have, how many hookers are they bringing, and does it Screw the Average American.
