Lol when the tea parties starting becoming popular even though the vast majority were non violent the government decided to use the IRS to specifically target them which you defended , what do you think should happen to these jack asses

too bad none actually got rejected for tax exempt status (and utter bullshit loophole to begin with) unlike liberal PAC's who did get rejected
-
Agreed on the bullshit loophole, that doesn't excuse the fact though that conservative groups were singled out for scrutiny based on their political views.
Simply bc the IRS couldn't find anything to reject them on doesn't excuse the fact the only reason the got picked for more scrutiny was they are conservative...for the honest and objective thinkers among us anyway

and singled out proggressive groups as well and of course progressive groups were the only ones denied tax exempt status

there were many other people attacked by the rioters'protestors' besides this women...there are plenty of other accounts/pictures of attendees bleeding and being assaulted.
is there NOTHING you libs wont defend on your side?? how do you feel about:
-waving Mexican flags
-various pro-communist, socialist,and revolutionary signs along with the cliché Che Guevara shirts
-masked people throwing rocks and bottles/destroying property
-attempting to PHYSICALLY BLOCK people from entering venues
-actually assaulting attendees and following them to their cars
-blockading major roadways, impeding ALL traffic not just TRUMP attendees, affecting every single person using the roads including ambulances and critical services, as well as people who don't even care about politics
id love to hear you defend any of these...all are regular occurances at these left-wing 'protests' for over a year now
-

Progressive groups were not singled out simply bc they were progessive like conservative groups were.
If you don't understand the difference there is no helping you
-
Seems like there have been a number of violent attacks on trump supporters
More violence in a few weeks than ever happened during tea part rallies but hey it's all trumps fault right?

wrong
both types of groups (and other non-party affiliated groups were singled out based on specific words

I'm not defending anybody who commits violence.
just mere speculation that some of it might have been a set up
-
We all know the left are jerks.
What we didn't know is that trump supporters were such wimps. Kick the crap out of those bullies.

Read that last sentence, memorize it, print it out and put it on your refrigerator and never repeat that stupidity again

Brazile said the IRS was "looking at everybody" including liberal groups and progressive groups. Yes, some progressive groups did have their tax-exempt status applications flagged as the IRS reviewed whether nonprofit groups were engaging in political activities.
But it wasn’t to the same degree as tea party and other conservative groups, nor did it result in the same actions. The list targeting tea party groups resulted in delayed processing that in some cases lasted almost three years and inquiries into their donors. Further, the inspector general found tea party groups were systematically singled out as part of an office-wide effort, while progressive groups were not.

This ends with violence. I hope the minority's and refuge's and the rest burn Cleveland to the ground. Then we'll see once and for all what all this multi cultural liberal bullshit gets us....more ammo more guns and I pray everyday Texas leaves the union.

202 out of 298 were labeled "other" and later it was determined that included in that "other" was the word progressive
so the fact is the "other" go the overwhelming scrutiny and no Tea Bag PACS were actually denied tax exempt status (unlike pogressive/liberal PACs which were denied) so you're basically crying about absolutely nothing.
Does it really matter that they looked at X number of teabag groups vs. Y # of progressive groups or does the actual denial (the END RESULT) matter
were there an equal number of X and Y to start with. How do we know that the % of X of total X is higher than the same % of Y
All that matters is the bottom line and the bottom line is Tea Baggers were not denied tax exempt status while progressive/liberal groups actually were
Can't you find something else to whine about?
The investigation ultimately found the Cincinnati office used inappropriate criteria to single out certain cases. Over the course of two years, 298 total cases were sent to D.C. for greater scrutiny. According to the investigation, 72 of those groups had the name "tea party," 13 had "Patriot" and 11 had "9/12." The other 202 cases were listed as "other." In 160 of these cases, the application remained open between 206 and 1,138 days, while 108 were approved.
Democrats said 202 is a lot of "other." And later it came out that the word "progressive" was also used to flag applications on another IRS "Be on the Lookout" list.

i saw a video on #bluelivesmatter where a mexican kid in a dark hat tries to grab the hat/shirt of a trump supporter.
So the trump supporter throws a punch, and connects.
it's not a good enough punch, because the mexican dude punches back and quickly pummels the Trump supporter. The news reported the poor trump supporter being beaten. They forgot that one detail that he was goaded into violent action when he should have reported it. Repubs have spent the last 10 years telling us police are infallable and anyone with a problem with them hates freedom. Kid should have reported the attempted theft of his property, not punch someone.
He was goaded into swinging, justifying them whooping his ass. The law is the law. You don't just throw a punch. Well, the trump t-shirt kid did.

LMFAO straw the last sentence takes into your quotes...it takes them into account and determines that progressives were not targeted like conservatives where
What part of that don't you understand?

I'm guessing you never bothered to scroll to the bottom of you own link
Why didn't you include this in your post
In fact, a few months after the story of the report broke, new documents came to light showing more of the extent of scrutiny of progressive groups. At the time, Alex Seitz-Wald described the landscape this way.
But now, almost two months later, we know that in fact the IRS targeted lots of different kinds of groups, not just conservative ones; that the only organizations whose tax-exempt statuses were actually denied were progressive ones; that many of the targeted conservative groups legitimately crossed the line; that the IG’s report was limited to only Tea Party groups at congressional Republicans’ request; and that the White House was in no way involved in the targeting and didn’t even know about it until shortly before the public did.

Correct. Not till after the investigation into the IRS started did they try and target liberal groups to try and cover up how they unquestionably targeted conservative groups.
IRS releases list of groups targeted in scandal – 3 years later
Published June 06, 2016
FoxNews.com
Three years after the IRS admitted officials singled out conservative groups for extra scrutiny, the tax-collecting agency has released a near-complete list of the organizations targeted.
And it numbers in the hundreds — for the first time showing the extent to which the agency slow-walked applications for tax-exempt status.
The new list shows a total of 426 organizations, far higher than what the Treasury Department’s inspector general believed there to be in May 2013, when he identified 298 groups.
The names span the gamut, covering well-known groups like Tea Party Patriots but also lower-profile local outfits like the Louisiana Campaign for Liberty, Patriots of Charleston, the Asheville Tea Party, Inc. and many more.
The Washington Times first reported on the list, which the IRS filed last month after being prodded by federal judges. The document was produced as part of a class-action lawsuit being led by Tea Party groups.
According to the Times, 60 of the groups' names contained the word “tea,” 33 contained the word “patriot,” eight used the word “Constitution” and 26 others had the word “liberty” in the title.
A lawyer representing NorCal Tea Party Patriots as part of the lawsuit said the list may have increased in number so dramatically since 2013 as the IRS targeted more liberal groups after the investigation began so as to try and soften the perception of bias.
“Based on these changes, which to date remain unexplained, a very real possibility — if not probability — exists that the IRS modified its targeting in light of the investigations, packing its own internal lists of targeted groups to support its preferred narrative, including by adding ideologically diverse groups,” Edward D. Greim told The Times.
Regardless of the backstory, a federal judge earlier this year scolded the IRS for allegedly holding up requests for information.
“The lawsuit has progressed as slowly as the underlying applications themselves: at every turn the IRS has resisted the plaintiffs’ requests for information regarding the IRS’s treatment of the plaintiff class, eventually to the open frustration of the district court,” Circuit Court Judge Raymond Kethledge said in a March ruling.
“Among the most serious allegations a federal court can address are that an Executive agency has targeted citizens for mistreatment based on their political views. No citizen—Republican or Democrat, socialist or libertarian—should be targeted or even have to fear being targeted on those grounds,” Kethledge said.
House Republicans ramped up pressure on the IRS in May, introducing a measure to censure IRS Commissioner John Koskinen -- and remove him from office without a pension.
Tea Party Patriots on Monday renewed their call for Koskinen's impeachment.

So less than 30% were Tea Party or some similar affiliation?
What were the other 70%
