Lois Lerner Sent Confidential Taxpayer Information Through Private Emails

From Ace of Spade HQ Blog:

Why is that important? Consciousness of guilt. It is a well-known trick of our Federal Masters that they will resort to using private emails -- safely immune from automatic record-keeping, and generally not subpoenaed (unless you know exactly what you're looking for) -- for their more, um, controversial missives.

We knew she had the actus reus -- the guilty act. But she could always say "Serious You Guys, I didn't know the rules, I made a mistake."

But here now the mens rea, the guilty mind.

So it looks like Lerner and other senior IRS staffers used personal email account to send confidential tax information. It appears to have done INTENTIONALLY to avoid any record of the email, in violation of IRS policy and Federal Law.

I hope she looks good in Jumpsuit orange.
