    No liar -- you lost this debate to me 3 months ago and yet you continue to peddle the same debunked horseshit.

    Several weeks AFTER the WaPo article at your link, the NYT published an article showing a multi-million settlement that was brought on behalf of 428 conservative groups. There have been ZERO settlements with liberal groups.
    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/26/us/politics/irs-tea-party-lawsuit-settlement.html

    Also, an internal IRS review found that of 199 (c)(4) cases, the conservative to liberal/progressive targeting ratio was 75% to 5% which is 15 to 1. Nothing to see there either, right?

    Wow, Trump admin handing out taxpayer money to conservatives, that totally makes your point!

    While at the same time

    Trump DOJ: No plans to charge Lois Lerner in IRS scandal | Fox News

    If 'Obama' IRS really targeted conservatives then why wasn't Lerner charged or indicted - you know like how Mueller is indicting and charging people, sending them to jail etc.

    Exactly.

    Because more conservative groups applied for this scam exemption doofus, do you math?

    Because the government always gives $ multi-million settlements for nothing, right demented shopping bag lady?
    Go back and re-do 4th grade math so you can learn what ratios are, you utter moron.

    Trump admin does

    You fucking inbred retard - Conservative scammers used MORE of the keywords that IRS put in place than liberal groups, why the fuck are you comparing raw numbers when liberal groups applied less and didn't use keywords that were put in by Bush appointee Lerner. Morons everywhere.


    A new report on the IRS’s treatment of nonprofit groups indicates the agency subjected numerous liberal-leaning groups to extra scrutiny when they sought tax-exempt status, the latest wrinkle in a saga that has mostly focused on how conservative groups were treated.

    While the audit released Thursday by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration doesn't discuss the political leanings of the additional groups it identified, the criteria used by the IRS to flag groups based on their names or policy positions included left-leaning organizations and causes like “ACORN Successors,” “Green Energy,” “Medical Marijuana,” and “Progressive.”

    They were among 17 additional selection criteria discovered by TIGTA going back as far as 2004. Some of the targeted groups waited up to four years for the IRS to decide whether to grant them tax-exempt status.

    Hi petulant child who can't ever admit he's wrong and who doesn't understand 4th grade math: sorry but tantrums don't win debates.

    I destroyed you on this three months ago starting with this post, so I'm not going to repeat myself. Find someone else to have your hissy fit with. :finger:

    If Obama admin did something illegal on ANY issues, simply show me an indictment and I would apologize and admit my wrong doing.

    So show me an indictment - like how Trump DOJ indicted multiple Trump campaign officials, something like that.

    Oh you can't? Awwwwww, post some memes to ignore those facts!!

    exThinker keeps arguing like he expects the swamp would indict and prosecute itself?
    The reason they are as corrupt as they were and broke as many laws as they do is because they knew they were pretty much immune from prosecution because the swamp protects itself.

    Then you mix in party loyalty and the swamp becomes dangerous.

    What exactly prevented Trump from firing Sessions for refusing to indict Lerner? He had no problem firing Comey for investigating Flynn the criminal.

    The fact that you think a criminal like Trump who lies and scams people all the time isn't the swamp himself shows how much you really understand the situation.

    you keep bullshitting about how much you think I like Trump.
    I voted against hillary.
    Trump was not my first or second choice.
    Trump was not establishment democrat or republican which is in part why he was elected.
    But, no one I know thinks Trump is a great guy. He simply was not Hillary and he promised to halt crazy immigration.

    I would still vote for him over a clinton.
    i would vote for Bernie
    I would vote for Schumer over clinton.
    If it were between pelosi and clinton... I would write in your name over voting for hillary. (even though you are not american)
