Your tax dollars gave IRS crook Lois Lerner $129,000 in bonuses or a ‘job well done’ targeting conservatives between 2010 and 2013. Free Beacon got this information only because of a Freedom of Information Act request that was granted, not because of the so called ‘transparency’ of the Obama regime.

| Lois Lerner received $129K in bonuses |
Former IRS official Lois Lerner received $129,300 in bonuses between 2010 and 2013, records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act show.
Over a three-year period, Lerner, the head of the tax-exempt division at the heart of the IRS targeting scandal, received a 25 percent retention bonus—averaging $43,000 a year—on top of her regular salary.
The federal government uses retention bonuses to incentivize valuable employees who are considering retirement or private sector jobs to stay at their agencies.
Former acting IRS commissioner Steven T. Miller recommended Lerner for a $42,000 retention bonus in December 2009, when she first became eligible for retirement.
