Group: IRS mistakenly posted thousands of Social Security numbers on website
The IRS mistakenly posted the Social Security numbers of tens of thousands of Americans on a government website, the agency confirmed Monday night. One estimate put the figure as high as 100,000 names. The numbers were posted to an IRS database for tax-exempt political groups known as 527s and first discovered by the group Public.Resource.org.

COURT DOCUMENT REVEALS EXISTENCE OF 2ND ‘PRISONER X’
A second anonymous security prisoner was held secretly at the Ayalon Prison at the same time that former Mossad employee Ben Zygier took his own life in the facility’s high-security cell 15, according to court documents cleared for publication on Tuesday. The protocol of an October 2011 hearing in the Rishon Lezion Magistrate’s Court examining the death of Zygier – whom Israeli media have nicknamed “Prisoner X” – reads: “It is worth noting that there are specific, detailed guidelines that were used for the previous resident of Block 15 [Yitzhak Rabin assassin Yigal Amir] and for a separate prisoner jailed in Block 13 [a security cell].”

Honey, I shrunk the Obama data machine

GOP eyes response to mandate delay
House Republican leaders are hoping to take full political advantage of the White House’s delay of a key Obamacare requirement by targeting votes this summer on at least three pieces of the law — including the unpopular individual mandate.

Rand Paul pokes fun at Perry
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) had a little fun at Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s expense. Speaking to Eric Bolling on Fox News about Perry’s announcement he will not seek a fourth term, Paul cracked a joke alluding to a stumble Perry made during a 2012 primary debate. “If Governor Perry decides to run for president, I think there would be three good reasons why he could be president: Texas is a big successful state, he’s a long term governor and… I can’t remember the other one,” Paul said on Monday night, laughing. In one of the most memorable moments of the GOP primary last year, Perry could not remember the third government agency he would eliminate if elected president.

Spitzer's rollicking campaign rollout
Politicians and pundits are already pairing him with mayoral hopeful and late-night TV show comedy fodder Anthony Weiner. Business types and unions, in a rare moment of consensus, are eying him with disdain. Yet in his 24 hours back as a declared candidate for public office, disgraced former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer is having a ball — released after a five-year sojourn through the political wilderness of short-lived talk shows and online columns. His campaign rollout even won a few grudging points from his longtime nemesis, Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
