While appearing as a guest on KABC's "McIntyre in the Morning," ABC political analyst Trey Hardin said Tuesday that he believes the IRS scandal emanates from the west wing of the White House.
“I will tell you this on the IRS front. I’ve worked in this town for over 20 years in the White House and on Capitol Hill and I can say with a very strong sense of certainty that there are people very close to this president that not only knew what the IRS were doing but authorized it," he said, being careful not to blame Obama directly for the scandal.
"It simply just does not happen at an agency level like that without political advisers likely in the West Wing certainly connected to the president’s ongoing campaign organization,” he added.
Hardin was not the only person to make the charge.
Newsmax reported Tuesday that Cleta Mitchell, one of Washington's most respected elections attorneys, said that she had "tangible proof that high-ranking IRS officials in Washington were fully aware of the agency's campaign to target conservative groups for heightened scrutiny, despite their denials."
She also believes the president knew about the practice.
"If proven, she said, it could be an impeachable offense," Newsmax said.
