Lawyer: Department of Justice Shut Down Search For Lois Lerner's Emails
2015-03-04
[Daily Caller] The Department of Justice blocked an attempt to force the Internal Revenue Service to search for Lois Lerner's missing emails at off-site storage facilities, according to a lawyer pushing to obtain the emails.

The IRS never looked for Lerner's backup email tapes at the West Virginia storage facility where they were being housed. Treasury deputy inspector general Timothy Camus told Congress that the IRS never asked IT professionals at the New Martinsville, W.V. storage site for the backup tapes. Camus only found the backup tape for Lerner's missing 2011 emails about two weeks ago.
Smells like potential criminal activity to me.

#12  Presidential pardons aren't recognized in Mexico.

Plead out here you might get a double jeopardy appeal on the extradition. Maybe.

#10  POTUS Pardon on the way out

Only if he's charged before then.

#9  OldSpook - I kind of suspect that is what they want - someone to, for example, take a shot at Holder or some other 'high official' then call an emergency, etc... We've seen it before.
Dangerous game taking that particular tiger by the tail.

#8  Its shit like this that brings out assassins. By God, I do not want to see our society descend to that, but keep this up and someone capable of it will eventually try to take the law into his own hands and pick a politician as his focus. Which will then cause an even bigger crackdown by the elites, which will trigger even more people... nasty spiral, leading to anarchy.

#7  And I'm sorry to disappoint you all but Holder won't be going to jail. He'll get a presidential pardon in January 2017 if we can get his boss out of the White House. Otherwise he won't need a pardon. ABC won't mention that either.

#6  This may be off topic but I was so pissed off last night when the ABC's World News Tonight started that Mrs. Uluque made me change the channel. They led with the story of Holder's bogus Ferguson report instead of Netanyahu's speech before Congress. I don't know if they ever said a single word about Netanyahu but I kinda doubt if they did. They certainly didn't talk about Lerner's email. It's pretty clear that ABC's news department is taking its orders directly from the White House. They aren't just leaning left, they're in Obama's back pocket.

#5  Come along now, folks. Holder was much too busy looking for racial bias in the Ferguson police department.

#4  Holder needs to go to a SuperMax jail.

#3  Holder doesn't believe in 'equal before the law' otherwise he'd be concerned about John Mitchell. Power, privilege, trump true equality. For the Left, that's all there is.

#1  Holder - a criminal running the justice department. When will he finally be held accountable (and jailed)?
