you, in this inspector general report here, we see in addition to the items given here, in the swag bag as we call it, various promotional items, totaling $27 thundershower provided. we ve seen the footnote, purchased by the human capital office for approximately $737, given to attendees at the information corridor as well as during a conference workshop that consisted of various items including keychains, plastic coins, miniature stuffed animals and plastic squirting fish. this fish is not from the conference. it s very similar to the ones given out. we assume it s roughly 3,000, the number of attendees. i ask you, sir, what in the world does an irs employee need a plastic squirting fish? i don t know. maybe this represents the fishy things going on at the irs. this is outrageous. i mean it shows obviously these people were attending a party. they used taxpayer dollars to throw it. greta: the irs scandal is not just about the $4 million party, but started with the disturbing
