Conservatives move to impeach IRS chief

Conservative House Republicans on Wednesday introduced a resolution to impeach Internal Revenue Service Commissioner John Koskinen, something they hope can get a vote this week before Congress leaves for an extended summer break.
The resolution was introduced by Reps. John Fleming, R-La., and Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., a move that was welcomed by Freedom Caucus Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.
"I thank my colleagues John Fleming and Tim Huelskamp for their resolution to impeach IRS Commissioner John Koskinen," he said. "Mr. Koskinen has failed the American people through gross negligence, dereliction of duty, and violating the public trust."

Members of the House Freedom Caucus had been considering pushing for a vote this week, the last week before an extended summer break.

One step at a time. We all know how grossly contaminated our government has become.

Well said..Sadly, the majority seem content to allow it to rot from within itself instead of doing something about it.

Always some career politicians not wanting to make waves with an election approaching. Always thinking politics rather than what's lawful and what's not. If he did wrong, he needs to go, just like some politicians.

Easier to impeach a POTUS than the bankers' right arm.

If Congress is handling it., nothing's going to happen. All they can do is pass more laws to take away what little freedom is left to us.
