Elija Cummings (D-MD), who ha pulicly made it his mission to stop the House oversight investigation into IRS targeting, sent emails to the IRS seeking information about True The Vote. Shortly after that the IRS requested nearly identical documents from True The Vote. Issa has these emails.
And then there is this…
As we reported, Holly Paz, the deputy of Lois Lerner who headed the IRS division handling tax-exempt organizations, had forwarded True the Vote’s 990 forms (on which nonprofit groups report their financial information) to Cummings’ staff.
Now we have Brian Fallon, a former aide to New York Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer and a communications aide to Attorney General Eric Holder, who mistakenly called Issa’s office thinking it was the office of Cummings and asked for help in leaking documents to selected reporters for the purpose of creating media spin before Issa and his committee could make them public.
As Jonathan Strong reports at Breitbart News, now the subject of an IRS audit, a letter sent by Issa to Holder about the call “describes Fallon as ‘audibly shaken’ when he realizes his request to leak documents to help get ahead of news stories about them was mistakenly made to the very office he was seeking to undermine.“
Democrats in Congress, DoJ, the IRS, and almost every Democrat that breathes are going to a great deal of effort to hide something that they simultaneously insist never happened.
Nothing to see here. Just move along…
