USDOT says try U.S. justice department over TN revenue racket
Federal inspectors general unconcerned with abuse of traveling public by state receiving Uncle Sam funding
My demand letter to the U.S. department of transportation’s office of inspector general is refused on grounds that “the issue you describe would be best addressed by the Department of Justice.”
Scott Harding, chief of complaint center operations, says in a form letter that my filings with the department get “careful review.”
I describe in detail the racket run by the department of revenue against the traveling public through illegal administration of the Tennessee financial responsibility law of 1977.
“Please note that our file on this matter is now closed, and we will not be able to respond to further communications regarding this issue.” Mr. Harding says.
On Oct. 2, the department had said, “The hotline is designed to report allegations of fraud, waste, and abuse, regarding DOT programs and DOT federally funded projects or grants. An investigator is analyzing your concern, will determine the necessary course of action and you may be notified if the OIG initiates an inquiry based on your concern, or forwards your concern to the appropriate regulatory agency for action deemed appropriate.”
My case against department of revenue to overthrow this shakedown is in progress since July 2023, with no relief from fraud by either attorney general Jonathan Skrmetti nor comptroller of treasury Jason Mumpower. the fraud watchdog.
