Is it acceptable for the head of one of the most powerful agencies in government to operate under a lower standard of conduct than that which is applied to the taxpayers?

This sorry train of false statements and dereliction of duty represents an affront to the authority of this House.

The Internal Revenue Service, and the power that it has over American citizens' lives, systematically targeted fellow citizens for their political beliefs.
