BOMBSHELL: Investigators Say They Have Recovered Lois Lerner's 'Missing' Emails
November 21, 2014 By Greg Campbell

On Friday, the U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) reported to several Congressional committees that many of the allegedly "missing" emails to and from former IRS official Lois Lerner have been recovered.

Lois Lerner remains at the heart of the IRS scandal for her having overseen the IRS' tax-exempt division that designated nonprofit statuses. Between the approximate years of 2010 to 2013, Lerner's division harassed and suppressed the political activities of blossoming Tea Party and conservative nonprofit groups that sought to make a difference. The IRS spent years denying nonprofit statuses for conservative nonprofits while allowing left-leaning nonprofits no such scrutiny.

The IRS made continued requests in their investigations of Tea Party groups by asking for membership rosters, emails, copies of social media postings and making chilling requests such as demanding to know who were members, what was discussed at meetings, what kind of reading material was common amongst members and other intrusive measures to ascertain and obstruct the nature of nonprofit activity.

Lerner had been embroiled in controversy as Congressional investigators have sought emails sent within these years. However, Lerner maintained that she suffered a computer crash and that the "missing" emails were irretrievable.

While government officials have maintained that Lerner's harddrive with the emails was irretrievable, they also soon revealed that they had "misplaced" the harddrive, thus prohibiting outside technicians to try and recover the emails.

Earlier this month, the IRS admitted that they never really looked for the missing emails or Lois Lerner's harddrive.

A Congressional aide revealed on Friday, however, that the Inspector General's Office has recovered up to 30,000 emails on disaster recovery tapes maintained by the IRS.

"They just said it took them several weeks and some forensic effort to get these emails off these tapes," a congressional revealed to the Washington Examiner.

It is not yet known what is in the emails as it may take several weeks of continued searching to recover all data from the voluminous amount of disaster recovery tapes.

Republican Rep. Darrell Issa, who has vigorously pursued the truth behind the IRS scandal, stated,

"Though it is unclear whether TIGTA has found all of the missing Lois Lerner e-mails, there may be significant information in this discovery. The Oversight Committee will be looking for information about her mindset and who she was communicating with outside the IRS during a critical period of time when the IRS was targeting conservative groups. This discovery also underscores the lack of cooperation Congress has received from the IRS. The agency first failed to disclose the loss to Congress and then tried to declare Lerner's e-mails gone and lost forever. Once again it appears the IRS hasn't been straight with Congress and the American people."
