She was wearing two hats, and was working mostly at the second job in Washington and not her main job over exempt organizations in Cincinnati. New people were hired to review applications, and they were doing review improperly. She wasn't there supervising. She never ordered anyone to do those things. Also, who the hell told all of those 501(c)(4)s to apply for recognition? It's voluntary and there is no benefit to it, and if IRS gets it wrong, it does NOT prevent the organization from going about its business. We never hear that part of the story, why anyone was telling people to seek recognition. >. . .
