White House and IRS exchanged confidential taxpayer info... Illegal liaison!


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.


Federal employees who illegally disclose confidential taxpayer information could face five years in prison.

I would like to see those top WH advisors be sentenced to their five years in prison and where does that leave Obama?
 
a lawsuit from religious organizations opposing Obamacare’s contraception mandate.

Religious organizations (501c-3) tax returns are PUBLIC INFORMATION.

So good luck with that.

:lol:

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.”

Interesting, Jackson.

Thank you for pointing out this conflict in the law

So now I wondering what the penalty is for an IRS employee who releases tax information that is already in the public domain.
