IRS TEA PARTY APPLICATIONS SENT TO D.C. "LEGAL EXPERTS"

IRS supervisor admits personally handling dozens of tea party cases
Breitbart – Tony Lee – 6/16/2013

An IRS supervisor who oversaw over 200 agents in the Cincinnati office admitted that she personally reviewed applications from conservative and Tea Party groups for tax-exempt status. Her statements contradict assertions by other IRS officials that "rogue" agents were solely responsible for the targeting. 

The Associated Press reports that Holly Paz "a top deputy in the division that handles applications for tax-exempt status," told congressional investigators that she personally reviewed "20 to 30 applications."

Paz is a registered Democrat who donated $4,000 to the Obama campaign in 2008 and is currently on administrative leave, according to her lawyer. 

Paz seems to have confirmed Hofacre's objections, telling investigators that "Tea Party" applications were forwarded to her from Cincinnati, and she then sent those applications to legal experts in D.C. She also admitted "dozens of tea party applications sat untouched for more than a year while field agents waited for guidance from Washington on how to handle them."

IRS data showed "dozens of liberal groups received tax-exempt approval in the 27 months that Tea Party groups sat in limbo, even though the liberal groups were engaging in similar kids of activity."
