McCain's Subcommittee Staff Director Urged IRS to Target Conservative Groups
Little is as unnerving as trouble with the IRS, especially if you haven't done anything wrong. That happened repeatedly during the Obama administration, as his IRS enthusiastically targeted conservative groups.
We're now understanding why the Congress didn't do much of anything about it.
We just released internal IRS documents revealing that Sen. John McCain's Former Staff Director and Chief Counsel on the Senate Homeland Security Permanent Subcommittee, Henry Kerner, urged top IRS officials, including then-director of exempt organizations, Lois Lerner, to "audit so many that it becomes financially ruinous." President Trump, presumably unaware of these new facts, appointed Kerner as Special Counsel for the United States Office of Special Counsel.
