| Senator tells Holder to resign. Senator Tells Holder to Resign Right to His Face - Attorney General Eric Holder - Fox Nation Quote: |
You’ve violated the public trust in my view by failing to perform the duties of your office. So, Mr. Attorney General it is with more sorrow than with regret and anger that I would say you leave me with no alternative but to join those who call on you to resign your office…
| After listening to a clip of Cronyn's whole statement I searched for hours but couldn't find a news version of the whole thing.
If words could singe your eyebrows, Holder's would have been smoking before the senator finished.
There will be a committee vote June 20th on whether to cite Holder for contempt or not.
If that doesn't pass then there is no justice left in this country. |

And according to your math, that makes you a racist. |

Furthermore, this operation (just one of many) involved so many agencies that it had to be a cabinet level program and there is only one person in the world could be responsible.

Multiple, previously highly credible, sources close to the Gunwalker investigation report that there are at least one and perhaps two sources within the Department of Justice headquarters who have approached the Issa Committee seeking whistleblower status. One source, who reported that there were at least two of Eric Holder's subordinates who "came in from the cold," characterized them as "high-level" DOJ employees "with knowledge of Eric Holder's actions before and after" the 4 February 2011 DOJ letter denying that the DOJ and its subordinate agencies knew about "gunwalking." That letter has since been admitted by DOJ to have been a lie.
----------------------
What they bring with them from the cold, according to one source, is "the keys to the kingdom as far as Holder is concerned," adding "if this comes out before the (contempt) vote (on 20 June), then Holder is toast." Said another, "not even Boehner will be able to stop it. Hell, he'll really jump on board and act like it was his idea."
This surprising development has re-energized the investigation staff, which was widely rumored to be floundering after the reluctance, not to say opposition, of the GOP leadership became known some months ago.
------------------------------
The emergence of two more whistleblowers, this time from Eric Holder's inner sanctum, may be one reason Congressman Issa sent this final offer to Attorney General Holder offering what sounds like one last chance to negotiate seriously, or else.
