Part of this administrations efforts at dictatorship. Not surprising. Some can call it a power grab which all dictators are involved in.  The really plain word is sin.  Sin in efforts at deception and power grabbing. When the courts become compromised our legal system will begin to unravel.  They can allow the IRS to break the law and compromise individual information.  The IRS will find themselves safe to pick and choose enforcement issues.  WOW this is serious and only one part of government has been selected for mention here.
