Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL) went on with Stewart Varney on Thursday morning to discuss recent developments on Capitol Hill.
Roskam told Stewart House Republicans are planning of filing criminal charges against Lois Lerner.
Rep. Roskam: The Obama Administration was very lenient with the crimes that Lois Lerner committed. And those are strong words that Im using but the House Ways and Means Committee voted out a criminal referral to the Department of Justice which was completely dismissed by the Department of Justice We think that Lois Lerner did two things wrong. Number one, she denied people due process and equal protection of the law based on their political philosophy. Were convinced that there is overwhelming evidence to suggest that thats true. And thats a felony. Secondly, we suspect that she lied to the Inspecter General of the Treasury Department.
More than 30 lawmakers sent a letter to President Trump last week calling for Obamas IRS Commissioner, John Koskinen to step down from his post before the end of his term, Fox News reported.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong,but isn't her request a virtual admission of guilt?
No. It's the Snowflake Defense. If you make my alleged crimes public, I'll get death threats. So you need to seal those records and let me go free so I'm not traumatized by people making threats because I used the power of the IRS to make their lives miserable, invade and subvert their religious freedom, etc.
You see, it's a very reasonable request.
I hope Sessions nails her hide to the wall. And Koskinen along with her.
