It should be no surprise to anyone following us that we were one of the groups targeted by the IRS. Brian Sikma at Media Trackers writes about the story here. You can see the enemies list here. What is amazing is that virtually no local media has even contacted the RRP for any comment about the story, or even covered the story. I think this is just another example of the bias we see in the local and national media. They seek to control the flow of information and content as it suits their agenda.

It’s time to repeal the 16th Amendment and abolish the IRS. Why don’t we have any Republicans talking about this? Matt Kittle from the Wisconsin Reporter has an article with an update on our story, part of which is shared below with a link to the full story on their website. Vicki McKenna spoke with Matt Kittle about this issue…
