I will note that 'lists of donors' are something the IRS can theoretically develop after they receive those selfsame donor's returns and connect the dots. I get the feeling that this sort of scrutiny is the kind that is given to suspected fraudulent tax shelter operations.
As noted in other threads, the Citizen's opinion from the SCOTUS gave politicians an unending source of secure and tax deductible funding, which is probably why the IRS got so agressive.
The fact that the IRS appears to have been MORE agressive towards Republican focused operations is the real problem. But their agressive actions towards all of these operations that are buying and selling politicians are VERY laudable.
