The Patriot Post® · IRS Bonuses

Eight months after we learned that the IRS was abusing its power by targeting the political opponents of Barack Obama, officials at the agency are running to the bank to deposit $62.5 million in bonuses. The sequester had eliminated the bonuses, but they have been reinstated, albeit at a lower cap of 1%. Sen. Orrin Hatch, for one, is outraged, saying, “It’s hard to think of a group of people less deserving of bonuses than IRS employees.” That may be true, and we’re sure the Obama donor investigating the IRS for its abuses will be sure to get to the bottom of it.
