BOMBSHELL: Accidental Phone Call Made by Holder Aide Proves Collusion Between DOJ and Dems in Obama IRS Scandal

There has been documented evidence of Democrat collusion with the IRS to hamper the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into the targeting, harassment, and intimidation of the pro-freedom, pro-Constitution Tea Party movement. TPNN reported on emails that revealed such illegal antics in both April and May of this year. Now, thanks to an misdeal by a senior communications aide to activist Attorney General Eric Holder, collusion between the Justice Department and Democrats has been uncovered.
House Oversight Committee Chair Darrell Issa sent a letter to Holder on September 8 detailing the phone call his office received from Brian Fallon, who is also a former senior aide to Democrat Chuck Schumer. While the letter did not identify Fallon, he did admit that he made the call.

Breitbart reports that Issa believes the call was erroneously made to his office, and Fallon was actually attempting to contact the office of the Democratic ranking member of the committee, Elijah Cummings.

Cummings has been accused in the past of using his position to obfuscate the investigation into the IRS in order to hinder the investigation. While Cummings has denied playing such a role, documented evidence was found that proves that he was working in collusion with the IRS to target certain Tea Party and conservative groups.  

According to the letter, Fallon – who is not named in the letter but confirmed he made the call – asked if the aides could release the IRS scandal documents to “selected reporters” to give Fallon an “opportunity to comment publicly on it.”

Fallon explained to Issa aides that the Justice Department’s Office of Legislative Affairs had not permitted him to release the documents to the public and he wanted to get ahead of the story “before the Majority” – meaning Issa – could share it, according to the letter.

Issa aides – who had placed the call on speakerphone – were “caught off guard by the unusual nature of the call and the odd request” and asked Fallon to “e-mail the material for evaluation.”

“At this point,” Fallon “abruptly placed the call on hold for approximately three minutes.” When Fallon returned to the call, “he was audibly shaken. He immediately stated that there was a ‘change in plans’ and that there would be no effort” by DOJ to release the material early.

This practice is known as ‘document dumping’ and happens often on a Friday evening. It is an attempt to get information leaked to the media before it is addressed or presented in a committee hearing so that the party in question can, “get ahead of it” and lessen any potential political damage.

Though admitting he made the call, Fallon denies any nefarious intentions claiming in a written statement that “There is nothing inappropriate about department staff having conversations with both the majority and minority staff as they prepare responses to formal inquiries. That includes conversations between the spokespeople for the Department and the committee.”

Issa vehemently denies such a purpose to the call.

The letter referred to a “subsequent explanation” from Fallon that “he simply called to improve the Office of Public Affairs’ working relationship with the Committee” but said the explanation “is inconsistent with statements and requests he made before he placed the call on hold.”

“It stains credulity to believe that the Department would seek to begin to improve relations via a telephone call between two individuals who had never spoken to each other before at 5:01pm on a Friday afternoon at the end of a District Work Period in the waning days of the 113th Congress,” Issa wrote.

Issa said he is “disturbed” by the “apparently longstanding collaboration between the Obama administration and Ranking Member Cummings’ staff to obfuscate and prejudice the Committee’s work through under the table coordination.”
