0 that's why they are trying to silence the political opposition all over the country. >> (applause) >> you talked to the department of justice yesterday. did you get an indication that they are beginning to see the light on this? can you tell us what they told you? >> we didn't talk about a lot of things. i asked a lot of questions. they want to talk about through the vote and talk about another couple of my clients and one of the things that is worrisome to me, is that it is taking them so long and i said to them. you know, i have been publicly critical that you have just now got ep around to talking to me and you have talked to none of the witnesses and the groups around the country and their response is that we do things in our own order. one of the things that worries me is that the civil right's division is involved in this investigation. the civil rights division of the justice department. and governor, i don't know if you are aware, but the person who is just named as the nominee to headivil right's division is somebody who led an international crusade to free a cop killer from philadelphia and have his sentence commuted. and the person who was the former head of the justice department was castigated by the justice department own inspector general a year ago this month that found political ideology was forming the basis of many decisions in the division of civil rights and that's who wants to talk to me now. -- i never had a problem with the office of public integrity on behalf of clients, but remember that lawyers from the office of public integrity that were sanked by the federal court when it was learned that things they had done against former senator ted stephens constituted proscan youitorial misconduct. i think it is time for a special independent counsel to be appointed so we can perhaps have confidence that the criminal actions that have taken place will be investigated and pursued. >> cleta, i want to bring in to focus, a lot of people assumed when it was exposed and obvious they were targeting the conservative groups and pro-life groups and pro jewish groups it would stop. has the targeting and harrassment stopped or is it still going on. >> it is still going on, governor. in fact, last august, remember the treasury inspector for tax administration report that confirm approximate ed that there was targeting of the conservative reports and that came out in may 2013. and the irs sent more -- letters to conservative groups and asking for further information and further questions and questions which i believe they asked and answered several types before. one of the groups that i represent got tax exempt status in 20133 and half years after applying and another group. tea party patriots still did not receive tax exempt status after more than three years. >> what does it take to resolve this? and finally bring it to a halt? >> i think we have to get the irs out of the process altogether number one. and i think that we have to -- we have to have, i don't think we should have to ask the federal government mother may i, before we function as a nonprofit exempt organization. i think we ought to get them out of the process altogether. and number two, make certain that the irs is never able to use political contribution information for purposes of defining who gets audited and i think that is what they are doing. and number three, we should have organization that repeals the irs on on on{who the donors are. >> thank you so much. most poll cisions up for reelection would normally soak the help of a sitting president in their own party. so why are the congressional democrats with their careers on the line breaking away from the president. we'll find out when i take the hot seat next. >> if you would like to comment on tonight's show, i welcome your response. go to mikehuckabee.com. and connect with me on facebook and leave pay my bill. phone: your account is already paid in full. oh, well in that case, back to vacation mode. ♪boots and pants and boots and pants♪ ♪and boots and pants and boots and pants♪ ♪and boots and pants... voice-enabled bill pay. just a tap away on the geico app. ♪ huh, 15 minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance. yup, everybody knows that. well, did you know that some owls aren't that wise. don't forget about i'm having brunch with meagan tomorrow. who? seriously, you met her like three times. who? geico.
