Not in a vacuum: It appears that a number of Senate Democrats have been demanding, in writing, that the IRS harass conservative organizations since 2010. More details here.
The same Democratic chairman of the Senate Finance Committee who this week is calling for hearings into IRS activities, specifically called on the IRS to engage in that very conduct back in 2010. And he wasn’t the only one. Just last year, a group of seven Senate Democrats sent another letter to the IRS urging them to similarly investigate these outside political organizations.
I mean, really, what’s the IRS for if not to harass your political opponents?
Readers!
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your support allows me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.
In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

They better find someone to admit to illegalities and take the fall for all this fast.
Otherwise it might just reach out and stick to them for the next election.
Get ready for a year of investigations and accusations. Followed by a few low level flunkies taking the fall.
The bets the conservatives can hope for is that we stretch this out and it keeps enough anger up for it to effect the next election.
We need to take back all three houses. And hold them for the next 20 years. We can do it but we need to start working on it now.
They can hold power for 8 years if we can hold it for 16 or more. Eventually we will find a way and power to replace their failed philosophies with ones that work, ours.
Well it looks like Miller resigned.
Considering he didn’t get there until 2 years after this crap started its just a bone. A bone thrown to the republicans in hopes of keeping the hounds off for a little while. The longer they can be kept away the smaller the bites they will take.
Don’t fall for it people. Demand the old director be brought up on charges (even though he was appointed by Bush that doesn’t mean he wasn’t a democrat).
Demand that everyone with an office be investigated and anyone with a title be removed from the governments pay role.
Forbes wanted postcard tax forms and elimination of the
GestapoIRS. You can’t blame AZ.
