"a disturbing picture of a coordinated assault on the First Amendment”
Ted Cruz, matching the action of the D controlled Senate which seeks to give the right to limit political speech to lawmakers, and the IRS, which is now auditing conservative news service Breitbart.
I don’t agree with everything Mr. Cruz has to say, and especially the way he emotes, at times (which makes my hair stand on end), but he is completely correct here.
For SOME REASON, those with D attached to their political lives FEAR and wish to limit free speech.
Anyone else wondering why?
Cruz asked that the IRS demonstrate that Breitbart’s audit was not a political move, posing seven questions to Koskinen:
How many other news organizations have been audited since President Obama has been in office?
How many of them could be identified as conservative- or liberal-leaning?
Have any other news organizations been subjected to this sort of far-reaching and oppressive inquiry, including requesting the personal tax records of editors and reporters?
At what point does the IRS decide to take action to audit a news outlet?
Does the IRS worry that its extremely burdensome auditing process could effectively silence the press?
Previously, Senator Durbin wrote the IRS asking that it examine the tax-exempt status of Crossroads GPS, a Republican organization that spends money electing Republicans. Did the IRS ever receive any communications from any elected official asking it to examine Breitbart News Network, LLC?
Who, precisely, is responsible for making the decision to audit Breitbart News Network, LLC?
IRS spokesman Bruce Friedland told TheBlaze Wednesday morning that the IRS is “prohibited by law” from discussing the ongoing audit.
