‘Partners in Crime’ expert: IRS has new ‘cover-up’

Criticism follows agency's announcement it is 'investigating' nonprofit
The Internal Revenue Service has confirmed it is going to investigate reports of “pay-to-play” corruption at the Clinton Foundation, but an expert on “Partners in Crime” says the result likely will be just another government “cover-up.”

According to a report from the Daily Caller, IRS Commissioner John Koskinen has referred a complaint about foundation corruption from Congress to his agency’s exempt operations office for investigation.

The IRS, of course, has seen its own scandals in the last couple of years, where its officials admitted they targeted conservative and Christian organizations for a general type of harassment – delays in their form processing and the like, prompting outrage from the American public because of the political nature of the attacks.

Now, the IRS is to be investigating the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation on charges of “public corruption.”

That letter from dozens of members of Congress was directed to the FBI, the IRS and the Federal Trade Commission and charged that the foundation is “lawless.”

Actually, I was wondering why they would refer this under the current corrupt administration.
The only thing I can think of is trying to get it slam-dunked and out of the way. Brushed under the rug. "We checked it out and there's nothing to it."

Mr. Trump will bring some 'law and order' to what ails us as a country.

Better make some space in the jails.

And they're just tossing it aside and will give some lame excuse as to why the investigation is taking so long.
