IRS Chief Koskinen Has Donated Big to Democrats Over the Years

From PJ Media:

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen looks like he got the job atop the taxman agency the old fashioned way: He bought it.

According to the Washington Free Beacon, Koskinen has donated about $100,000 to Democrat candidates and committees since his first donation in 1979. His donor recipients include Gary Hart, the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic nominee in each presidential campaign since 1980 (which would even include Walter Mondale, who stood no chance of beating President Ronald Reagan in 1984), the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and Hillary Clinton’s and Barack Obama’s campaigns. He most recently donated $2,500 to Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) in 2013.

He has given no money to Republicans. The taxman is a partisan Democrat.

Sen. Orin Hatch said that the appointment left him “more than a little mystified.”

There was nothing mystifying about it. President Obama had already declared that there was not a “smidgen of corruption” in the IRS scandal.

Appointing a partisan Democrat to head the IRS ensured that such smigdens would never get out. It was also an in-your-face move against Republicans, daring them to oppose the nomination.

Another case for NOT voting for an establishment Republican. They should have challenged his nomination. Out with Hatch, McConnell et al.

They are not opposing the Dear Leader.

They are not fighting the Dear Leader.

They need to be primaried out.

He's a loyal apparatchik.
