Sarah Hall Ingram, the IRS executive in charge of the tax exempt division in 2010 when it began targeting conservative Tea Party, evangelical and pro-Israel groups for harassment, got more than $100,000 in bonuses between 2009 and 2012. More recently, Ingram was promoted to serve as director of the tax agency's Obamacare program office, a position that put her in charge of the vast expansion of the IRS' regulatory power and staffing in connection with federal health care. Read More...

The Internal Revenue Service has been caught engaging in political profiling while processing applications for tax-exempt status. In this case it was against organizations with “tea-party” or “patriot ” in their names and other right-wing groups. Next time it could be libertarian or left-wing antiwar and pro-civil-liberties groups. No dissenter can ever rest assured he is safe from the arbitrary power of the IRS. Read More...

Pentagon Unilaterally Grants Itself Authority Over ‘Civil Disturbances’- New dynamic introduced to the militarization of domestic law enforcement. By making a few subtle changes to a regulation in the U.S. Code titled “Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies” the military has quietly granted itself the ability to police the streets without obtaining prior local or state consent, upending a precedent that has been in place for more than two centuries. Read More...

(VIDEO) Judge Napolitano said pointedly, “The common thread here is that the government can’t be trusted, but the government thinks that we will trust them. The government will break whatever law it wants in order to meet its own political ends.” Read More...

Government is bad for personal freedom. That argument is premised upon the truism that everything government does interferes with freedom because it either prohibits or compels. Everything it owns it has taken from others. Much of what it says is divorced from the truth. President Obama, like President George W. Bush, has argued that his first job is to keep America safe, and if he impairs personal freedom in the process, that is a small price to pay for safety. Many of my colleagues in the media on the left and right have bought this argument, notwithstanding its fallacies. Read More...

In almost every administration since the IRS's inception the information and power of the tax agency have been mobilized for explicitly political purposes. And, the IRS has usually done an excellent job of stifling investigations of its practices. A 1991 survey of 800 IRS executives and managers revealed that three out of four respondents felt entitled to deceive or lie when testifying before a congressional committee.
