From Fox News:
House Republicans on Tuesday introduced a resolution to impeach IRS Commissioner John Koskinen, accusing him of making "false statements" under oath and failing to comply with a subpoena for evidence.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, and 18 other committee members introduced the resolution to begin impeachment proceedings. In doing so, they followed through on a threat first made over the summer, when Republicans accused the IRS leader of making inaccurate statements to Congress regarding the Tea Party targeting scandal and its aftermath.
"Commissioner Koskinen violated the public trust," Chaffetz said in a statement Tuesday. "He failed to comply with a congressionally issued subpoena, documents were destroyed on his watch, and the public was consistently misled.
"Impeachment is the appropriate tool to restore public confidence in the IRS and to protect the institutional interests of Congress."
The IRS issued a statement later Thursday saying, "The IRS vigorously disputes the allegations in the resolution. We have fully cooperated with all of the investigations."
The announcement of the impeachment resolution comes on the same day Koskinen testified before the Senate Finance Committee, and after the Justice Department on Friday decided to close its investigation of the targeting scandal without pursuing criminal charges. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/10/27/house-republicans-introduce-measure-to-impeach-irs-commissioner-koskinen/?intcmp=hpbt1
So, the GOP House decides to impeach this guy?
Why not President Obama for all the crimes he committed, violations of the Constitution and being a full fledged racist and anti-Semite?
Why didn't they impeach former A.G. Eric Holder for all the crimes, cover ups that he committed along with being a full fledged racist?
How about current Attorney General Loretta Lynch for her cover ups of crimes?
How about the heads of the EPA and Veterans Administration for gross incompetence.
How about all of Obama's advisors like Valarie Jarrett for violation of laws and unethical behavior?
How about John Kerry for treason?
How about Michelle Obama for destroying the school lunch program?
And while we are it, impeach Vice President Joe Biden for being such a dunce and having a half of a brain.
So, this is a start for the GOP but they have so many more people to get to before Obama's term ends.

inally Obama shows that he is an African-American in a sea of racist white republicans.
ReplyDeleteObama has proposed nothing to restrict gun sales and any changes must be made by Congress or each state. He is not a Muslim, a traitor, Marxist or Communist. I dont know what destruction you are talking about. The stock market tripled in value. He saved the economy in 2009. The unemployed went down by half.
what Rabbi Avi Shafran said is so important, that I am making an exception here. It needs to be read and absorbed. Especially now in light of the current circumstances where there is surely a tendency by many to forget all the positive things he has done and brand him an antisemite. Which he clearly is not
Obviously you are a R-tarded racist a-hole that hates that a black man lives in the White House
