IRS reveals list of tea party groups targeted for extra scrutiny

Good morning Cpl Sain, the Washington Times article doesn't have the actual list, which would be nice. I did find some background, featuring the Senate report of 2014, which faulted the IRS Inspector General:
"...The new report faults the inspector general’s office for igniting a false furor over the targeting of conservatives, while its early evaluation ignored liberal groups that had received extra scrutiny based on having names with words such as “ACORN,” “Occupy” and “progressive.”

"The inspector general, J. Robert George, and others in his office ignored evidence brought to their attention regarding liberal targeting, even as George was testifying to various congressional committees, the new report found. IRS officials and a lawyer in George’s office had informed the inspector general that liberal groups were targeted in “be on the lookout” notices, or BOLOs, the report says."
“Even after learning about them, the senior TIGTA officials remained silent for weeks about the BOLO entries for liberal groups, and provided incomplete and inaccurate testimony about them at Congressional hearings,” the report says. “When the BOLO listings for liberal groups were finally disclosed by Members of Congress and the media, senior TIGTA officials insisted that the IRS had not disclosed those listings during the TIGTA audit, despite ample evidence to the contrary..."

One of the comments on the Huffington Post story referenced here wrote, "...According to another IRS staffer with knowledge of the matter, he deliberately left out all references to liberal groups that were similarly targeted, at the request of none other than Darryl Issa. As it happened, however, the report didn't completely leave them off. When the initial report came out, it clearly stated that of the fifty and odd groups targeted for closer scrutiny, one third were conservatives. Who did they think the other two thirds were, Martians?

"Darryl Issa made this whole thing up, he created a fishing expedition with another Republican, and they faked an inflammatory report and deliberately left out the parts that showed that the group had been impartial. The Senate investigation proves it, but the Conservative bubble will never hear a word of it..."
Your story here doesn't mention the findings of the Senate report, so here's a link if you are interested:

I bet this type of event happens in Russia all the time.
