AOC targets Pelosi

Impeach Trump.  That's the goal of the ultra-fringe wing of the Democratic Party. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is demanding it, along with many others in the party.  But Nancy Pelosi for all her ineptitude, knows politics.  She understands proceeding with impeachment will virtually ensure president Trump's re-election, and worse (for her) probably return Republicans to control of the House of Congress.

When voters see a party blindly pursuing a political goal in place of actual policy, and ultimately doing nothing for the country (even after Mueller report exonerated the president and everyone else of collusion and clearly indicated no obstruction), the Democrats are going to be toast. Burnt toast.  Let's hope they proceed with an attempted, and failed impeachment.

From the Unbelievable Government files

Unbelievable government in action - the IRS is targeting the American Legion. getting a slight rap on the knuckles and a culprit promoted for targeting the Tea Party and other conservative groups unexpectedly did not deter such behavior at the IRS.

Via The Daily Caller;

The Internal Revenue Service is targeting the veterans’ organization the American Legion, and a U.S. senator believes that Lois Lerner — a key figure in the IRS scandal – is to blame.

“The IRS now requires American Legion posts to maintain dates of service and character of service records for all members… The penalty for not having the required proof of eligibility is, apparently, $1,000 per day,” the American Legion stated...

“On the heels of Americans’ anger over revelations that the IRS intentionally targeted certain groups, it has been brought to my attention that the IRS is now turning their sights toward our nation’s veterans,” Kansas Sen. Jerry Moran said. “The IRS seems to be auditing veteran service organizations by requiring private member military service forms.”

The scariest thing about this is that  an expanding IRS targeting scandal means that eventually, everybody could be in their sites.  Talk about control.

Scandal - IRS goes after Tea Party groups and then apologizes

The problem, they targeted the groups in 2012 before the election.  The apology came today - almost a year after the problem probably started and long after it could make a difference in the election.  This is a major scandal and a huge abuse of power.  Not only that, this truly is the actions of George Orwell's Big Brother for pure partisan purposes.

I am officially disgusted.  This has to be as a big a deal as the Benghazi-gate story.  It had better get the attention it deserves from both the left and the right or else the country is truly lost.
