IRS agents tell House committee that the targeting started in D.C. “One of the low-level employees said that the Washington office was ‘basically throwing us underneath the bus’ for an operation they had ordered and directed. And an employee described as being more senior said that he viewed the entire project as unfair and was so worried about being blamed for it later that he actually applied for another job in the summer of 2010. ‘I didn’t want my name in the paper for being this rogue agent for a project I had no control over,’ the more senior employee said.” No surprise, sh-t always rolls downhill from the top.
