About this item

Under Attorney General Eric Holder, the Department of Justice has become a politicized hotbed of left-wing legal activism.What is Eric Holder up to? When questioned by congressional committees on sensitive issues like the ATF gunwalking scandal or the surveillance of Fox News reporter James Rosen, the attorney general either claimed ignorance or denied specific knowledge. When it was later revealed that Holder had personally signed off on the Rosen investigation, despite his explicit denials, indignant calls were heard across the political spectrum for his resignation. He became the first attorney general in history to be held in contempt by the House of Representatives over a reckless operation that killed a border patrol agent and numerous Mexican citizens.
