White House, IRS exchanged confidential taxpayer info
White House, IRS exchanged confidential taxpayer info
Top Internal Revenue Service Obamacare official Sarah Hall Ingram discussed confidential taxpayer information with senior Obama White House officials, according to 2012 emails obtained by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee and provided to The Daily Caller.
Lois Lerner, then head of the IRS Tax Exempt Organizations division, also received an email alongside White House officials that contained confidential information.
Ingram attempted to counsel the White House on a lawsuit from religious organizations opposing Obamacare’s contraception mandate. Email exchanges involving Ingram and White House officials — including White House health policy advisor Ellen Montz and deputy assistant to the president for health policy Jeanne Lambrew — contained confidential taxpayer information, according to Oversight.
The emails provided to Oversight investigators by the IRS had numerous redactions with the signifier “6103.”
Section 6103 of the Internal Revenue Code forbids a federal employee from “disclos[ing] any return or return information obtained by him in any manner in connection with his service as such an officer or an employee.”
Federal employees who illegally disclose confidential taxpayer information could face five years in prison.
“Thanks, David. Thanks for the information on [6103],” White House official Lambrew wrote to IRS official David Fish in a July 20, 2012 exchange. “I am still hoping to understand whether the 50 percent rule is moot if the organization does not offer goods and services for sale to the general public. Do we assume that organizations like [6103] do offer goods and services for sale?”
Another email from Montz to Ingram and others refers to the “[6103] memo” and the “[6103] letter” while discussing organizations that are not required to file 990′s.
Ingram appeared before Rep. Darrell Issa’s House Oversight Committee Wednesday and claimed she could not recall a document that contained confidential taxpayer information.

the base of the rights we have have been eroded away that people can not even be upset over the illigal demand for Driver License- I once told a constitution lawyer that we lived in a police state and he said name one instant where that where true- I said why is it very time you are pulled over they ask for your papers ? he barked a laugh and said what your Drivers license and Registrations papers ? see conditioning! in a free nations a police offer can not even ask your name and address with out due cause! yes we had Crime but we had freedom. because according to the new America and every police officer I have ever talked too. they say the same thing- "their is not five feet you can walk that I can not arrest you for a Crime!

That is what criminals do, they commit crimes. I recall the 900 FBI files in the White House living quarters when the Clintons were in residence. Just like the IRS illegally exchanging confidences with obama, those FBI files were in the White House illegally. As I wrote, that's what criminals do, they commit crimes. I do not exclude the Republicans, they are no better. A crime is defined as "Any act that violates the Right of Life/Liberty/Property of another." Rights are inseparable and indivisible, thus Life/Liberty/Property. Lose one lose all: "Each of us has a natural right—from God—to defend his person, his liberty and his property. These are the three basic requirements of life, and the preservation of any one of them is completely dependent upon the preservation of the other two... ." Frederick Bastiat, The Law (1859).
Any act that violates Rights, the Right to Work, the Right to Contract is a crime (personal income tax and sales tax), the Inalienable Right to use the highways and byways (parking meters). So simple, so simple to explain, so simple to understand.
