The Internal Revenue Service official in charge of the tax-exempt organizations at the time when the unit targeted tea party groups now runs the IRS office responsible for the health care legislation.That's perfect. Really, it couldn't be better.
Sarah Hall Ingram served as commissioner of the office responsible for tax-exempt organizations between 2009 and 2012. But Ingram has since left that part of the IRS and is now the director of the IRS’ Affordable Care Act office, the IRS confirmed to ABC News today.
Her successor, Joseph Grant, is taking the fall for misdeeds at the scandal-plagued unit between 2010 and 2012.

The US cannot change the world when it cannot even change itself for the better. On the other hand, if the US could change Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, and Korea for the better, it would be absolute proof that it has and could change itself as well. But that's all in the past.
Sarah Hall Ingram should be prosecuted. She should testify in a criminal trial.
ReplyDeleteOur rules are very clear, and her tenure has the whiff of not just serious misconduct but also bribery. Those bonuses, for example, had to have approval by a person with a name.

Government employee bonuses up to 35% of base salary? No, you wouldn't have to worry about that being used for a political spoils system, right?
ReplyDeleteA very important point about those bonuses -- only with the personal approval of the President.
