Judicial Watch obtains IRS documents revealing Joh McCain's subcommittee staff director urged IRS to engage in "financially ruinous targeting.

The guy's name is Henry Kerner and he was appointed by President Trump as Special Counsel for the United States Office of Special Counsel.

What? Is that like Special Janitor for the United States Office of Special Janitor?

Creepy, isn't it? It's like slime paths all over the place. The guy wrecks havoc and mayhem in one place then slimes over to the new place.

Citizens United again. The gift that keeps giving. Lerner and other IRS officials met with a select group of of top staffers from the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee in a maration meeting to discuss concerns raised by Carl Levin and John McCain that the IRS was not reining in political advocacy groups in response to the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision. McCain had a bug up his butt about Citizens United overturning portions of his McCain-Feingold Act, characterizing it as one fo the worst decisions he had ever seen.

Henry Kerner urged IRS top officials, including Lerner, to audit so many that it becomes financially ruinous.

And it worked!

And that created a discrepancy, an imbalance, that could not go unnoticed. The actions were taken against groups with the word "freedom" and "patriot" and the like in them, so that the incipient Tea Part was effectively squashed, leaving those isolated but activated voters nowhere to coalesce, nowhere to go, so guess what, they didn't go anywhere. They delivered a profound civics lesson on representation that is still being digested and with a very long way to go, but this is exactly how IRS, McCain and Kerner and the rest of the country, the world in fact, were all given Trump. Take a bow, you arrogant asshole. For your trouble you are delivered our glorious bastard.

Curious to see what what the man famous for saying "You're fired" does about this now that Judicial Watch uncovered Kerner's actions that had so much to do with him becoming president in reaction to just such malevolent deep state maneuvering.
