Original Note:
In 2013, the Obama Administrations IRS selected political groups applying for tax-exempt status for intensive scrutiny based on their names or political themes. They apologized in 2017 after a settlement was reached. Politicization of gov agencies isn't exclusive to Trump. https://www.npr.org/2017/10/27/560308997/irs-apologizes-for-aggressive-scrutiny-of-conservative-groups
