Wait, I thought this was the result of a few “rogue” employees in Cincinnati?
Via NRO:
The Internal Revenue Service has replaced the director of Rulings and Agreements, Holly Paz, who served in that position while her division singled out conesrvative groups for inappropriate scrutiny.
In an internal memo, according to an IRS source, the agency named a new official, Karen Schiller, to the position. Cincinnati’s Fox19 confirms that report.
According to the House Oversight Committee, Paz was involved in an internal IRS investigation that in May 2012 — a year before the Treasury Department inspector general revealed the targeting publicly – concluded that the agency had been discriminating against conservative groups. Paz, who National Review Online revealed is a donor to Barack Obama, also sat in on the vast majority of the interviews conducted by the inspector general’s team. Inspector general J. Rusell George has been harshly criticized by Oversight Committee chairman Darrell Issa for allowing her to do so; Issa told George who that it was “inappropriate” to include anybody in the agency who could have participated in the targeting of conservative groups in his interviews.
The IRS source says the memo did not indicate whether has has been moved to a new position, placed on leave, or fired.
