lol that was the dumbest talking point. As my understanding, the summary was:

-Citizens United hits, there's a surge of 501c3 apps
-IRS was to understaffed to handle it, so they set up a triage system to identify clearly political organizations for further scrutiny (such as Tea Party, Patriot, Green, etc)
-Turns out most of these apps were conservative on account of this being in the middle of the tea party wave

The end?

I mean, they clearly shouldn't have made a shortcut, but their shortcut wasn't explicitly targeting conservatives, it's just conservatives had a lot more 501c3 apps?

close!

-the majority of the issues actually came from 501c4 apps which are allowed to be political
-the irs triaging clearly political organizations was A Problem, but they actually used lovely BOLOs for more progressive groups than conservative groups
-the second problem was them asking for hilariously inappropriate info after they had taken way too long on processing the apps and were trying to cut corners to close them out

From 2007 through 2011, Peterson is reported to have contributed $458 million to the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, to promote the cause of fiscal responsibility, which its opponents regard as unjustified fiscal austerity.[18]

I went to high school with a guy named Richard Wang AKA Dick Wang.

He played linebacker for our football team so I guess that's one way to make sure no one gives you poo poo about your silly name.
