Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I muri i te tata ki te rua tau o te taupatupatu ki te Kaunihera mo te hītori o te IRS o te whakahāweatanga ki ngā rōpū kore-pakihi, e kore te kaitohutohu o mua a Lois Lerner e whakawakia mo te hara mo te whakahe i te tono a te Kaunihera me te kore whakautu i ngā pātai. Ko te Kaitohutohu o te US a Ronald Machen, i tana ra whakamutunga i te tari, i korero ki te Kaikorero o te Whare a John Boehner i roto i tetahi reta e whitu-whārangi ka taea e Lerner te takai i a ia ano ki te Tuarima o te Ture o te US, ahakoa i tukuna e ia he korero whakatuwhera whaiaro i mua i te kati i te ra 22 o Mei 2013. Kua roa a Lerner e aro atu ana ki te GOP nā te mea i ārahi ia i te tari IRS i whakawhiwhia ki te whakaaetanga i ngā tono a ngā rōpū kore-hua mo te tūnga kore-taake. I te tīmatanga o te tau 2010, ka hoatu e te tari he āta tirotiro ki ngā rōpū pūmau ki ngā kupu pēnei i te 'patriots' me te 'tea party' i roto i o rātau ingoa, e whakaroa ana i ō rātau tono, ā, ka noho ki te pōhēhē mō ngā tau. I whakahaua a Lerner e te Komiti Arotake me te Huringa Kawanatanga o te Whare i muri i tana kore whakaae ki te whakaatu i tana mahi i roto i te pukuriri. Pānuihia ngā ataata me te reta a te DOJ ki a Boehner. Ka korerotia e ahau te pono... Mēnā e kore au e tango i te rima: I tohe a Lois Lerner, te kaitohutohu o mua o te IRS, i runga i tana kore hara i roto i te korero whakatuwhera i te wa o te whakarongo a te kaunihera i te tau 2013, a ka kore e whakautu i nga patai a nga kaipōti - he kowhiringa e kii ana te tari Obama inaianei he tino ture. Ko te U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia ko Ronald Machen (māui) i tuku i tana poma ki runga i te Kaunihera kotahi noa te ra i mua i te wehenga atu o te tari ki te hoki ki te mahi ture tūmataiti. I tukuna mai i te īmēra? Ko te reta a Machen i tukuna ki te Kaikorero o te Whare a John Boehner (maui), i haere ki Hiruharama ki te toro atu ki te Pirimia o Iharaira a Benjamin Netanyahu (matau) I te wa i whakakahore ano ia ki te whakautu i nga patai i te wa o te whakawakanga tuarua i te Poutu-te-rangi 5, 2014, i whakarerihia e nga Republican o te Whare he korero whakahawea hara ka tukuna te keehi ki te Tari Ture i te wa i whakaaetia ai. Ko Darrell Issa, he mema Reipa nō California, i taua wā te tumuaki o te komiti mātakitaki, i ki atu ki a Lerner i tētahi...
I tukuna e te Tari Ture he reta e whitu-whārangi ki te Kaikauwhau o te Whare, e whakamārama ana he aha i whakaaetia ai te kaitohutohu o mua o te IRS ki te tono i te Whakatikatika Tuarima. I tukuna e te kaituku a te kāwanatanga i te take nei tana whakatau ki te Capitol Hill i te rā whakamutunga i mua i te whakatūnga o tana wehenga ake. I tukuna e Lerner he korero whakatuwhera whaiaro i te wa o te 2013 whakarongo, engari kaore i whakaae ki nga patai ahakoa kei raro ia i te kohukohu. I arotahi te whakarongo ki te tikanga o te IRS ki te aro atu ki ngā rōpū pararau me te tirotiro motuhake i runga i ngā kupu pēnei i te 'patriots' or 'tea party' i roto i o rātau ingoa. E mea ana te DOJ e kore e taea te whakawakia ia mō te whakahe i te whakahaerenga'nā te mea i kī noa ia he harakore' ā, he torutoru noa iho ngā taipitopito.
