employees, current employees, and a number of donor lists op top of that this is part of the investigation. >> americans werr affected by political intimidation and discrimination cultivatedded by the targeting. at the core, the investigation is about how and why the irs was empowered and allowed to use the broken tax code to abuse individuals based on beliefs, and seemingly, only based on their beliefs. >> so, congress has plenty of ammunition when it comes to the irs, in light of reports of $50 million the irs spent on more than 200 conferences including, i think, the video that we have upright now, certain role-playing games, helping the internal revenue service working for you. that hearing day after tomorrow here on capitol hill.

responsible. >> that is exactly right. the inspector general's report was fairly limited. i think all those facts will come out. i am hopeful that people will be held accountable. you do have to do this in accordance with procedures. dagen: what do you make that though, of what i said about a couple of these employees that this was coming from washington? >> i think that if that's the case, that the publicly testified to. those facts need to be established. first, i find this whole event,

string of events, so disturbing. i believe people try to call it right down the middle. what you have here is so years at the lower level in cincinnati where a group of people, i think, lost their minds. finally, leadership at the very top was horrible, in a sense of communication with cars. these facts will come out. then, people will be held accountable. dagen: you were a commissioner from 2003 until 2007. that was not that long ago. how did this management and lack of accountability develop and,

frankly, what is a short period of time? >> well, i am surprised by it. we did do work on political intervention. it was said about my request to look at some of the complaint looking in. this same inspector general look at what we did. while we may have been able to have better guidance, the work was very balanced. we were looking at organizations on both sides of the aisle. churches and charities, as you know, they are prohibited. i know agencies can be fair. i am deeply disturbed that it got off-track here. dagen: we solve the star trek video. we solve the dancing video. what do you make of that. did you have training videos? did you have conferences?

what were they for? now, people are really angry about this. >> well, we have conferences, but they were, let's say, much less lavish and all business. what happened in california is disgraceful. $4 million is what i have heard on that one conference. i cannot blame on lower level people in cincinnati. that is way out of line. employees of the service do not need that kind of training video or goof around atmosphere to know what they are supposed to be doing. that just encourages -- i get that means the employee. i think what was done was horrible.
