GOPDD: New Smoking Gun Documents – Obama IRS Officials Admit to Inappropriately Targeting Conservative Groups

Apr 5, 2017 by Harry Hibbs

Judicial Watch just released hundreds of new IRS documents that contain admissions by IRS officials of “inappropriate labels” to screen tax-exempt applications on conservative organizations like The Tea Party.
Via Judicial Watch:

The documents were produced after a revelation by the IRS that it had located “an additional 6,924 documents of potentially responsive records” relating to a 2015 Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit about the Obama IRS targeting scandal. The FOIA lawsuit seeks records about the IRS’ selection of individuals and organizations for audits based upon applications requesting nonprofit tax status filed by Tea Party and other 501(c)(4) tax-exempt organizations (Judicial Watch v. Internal Revenue Service (No. 1:15-cv-00220)).
