Leaders on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee are
escalating the battle over the investigation into the IRS tea
party-targeting scandal with new transcripts that suggest Cincinnati
agents first flagged tea party groups on their own.
Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings, the panel’s top Democrat, released hundreds of pages of transcripts on Tuesday of an interview the committee conducted with a self-described “conservative Republican” IRS nonprofit screening manager in Cincinnati. He told the committee one of his employees was the first to single out a tea party group applying for a tax exemption because it was “high profile” and had received media attention.
