Holder: Protect The Deep Corruption At All Costs.

Quote
Holder urges DOJ/FBI to unconstitutionally defy President; ’Protect the institutions



Former Attorney General Eric Holder publicly urged his former employees at the Justice Department to defy President Trump’s request for transparency and public disclosures of information related to the unprecedented spy operation launched in 2016 against the Trump campaign.

More DOJ norms being eroded. Trump-a SUBJECT of the investigation-wants access to material related to the inquiry. His Congressional supporters want evidence connected to an ongoing investigation. Time for DOJ/FBI to simply say no-protect the institutions and time tested norms.
— Eric Holder (@EricHolder) May 21, 2018

Holder’s insistence that the DOJ and FBI “protect the institutions” rather than carry out their constitutional duties and protect the constitution, the document they actually swear to protect when entering their federal positions is telling and rather frightening.

Prolly this one:

But the Hill has it too.

Wow. He really said this. Unbelievable. It looks to me like Holder knows that all of the criminal shit he did for Obama is about to come out, especially since FBI agents are pleading to be subpoenaed to testify about the corruption. This is a last ditch effort to rally whatever buddies he has in the DOJ to stop it at all costs.

The man is a sophistical rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command an interminable and inconsistent series of arguments to malign an opponent and to glorify himself. The typical nutcutting Obama democrat.

Defying the President isn't unconstitutional. Just that they can be fired if they do.

I just call him rat-faced Eric "My People" Holder.  Another travesty of justice that someone as biased, partisan and corrupt as he is was even allowed to be in that high of a position in this country and able to wield that much power.  And he's not the only one, which is the scary part.

Reading the comments on that article gives me renewed hope for the next election and maybe even 2020.  Looks like most people 'get it' about Holder & Obama & Hillary.   It's uplifting.

The article is from the Washington Times.  Not a MSM new site.  It's nearly all Conservatives at that site.

Not really a good barometer of what Joe Sixpack thinks.

Just Holder trying desperately to save his own skin. The F&F files are about to be released, and he is very afraid. He is urging Sessions to 'hold the line' with their history of obstruction and equivocation. And with Sessions, it may actually work.

Well.... the reason MSN took away their comments sections ... is because too many folks were posting opinions like yours and mine.   So they just eliminated that pesky problem of public opinion in opposition to the leftist agenda.

Yes, but I think they still have the Twitter link.  That at least worries them.

Actually, I find this very disturbing. He defied the courts during Bammy's reign of terror and no one stood up to him and no one stopped him.   I'm almost certain that he will run for president in 2020.  With all the redistricting and the leftists hatred and corruption out there I would not discount that there is a possibility that this past corrupt and racist head of the DOJ may just become our next president.  I find that extremely frightening.

If he actually runs, it’ll be for exposure in the hopes the nominee selects him as VP.

Presidents come and go.  Alphabets and career bureaucrats remain forever.

What Holder is signaling ought to frighten you much more in regards to the near-term portents of such a command.

It means we have two disparate governments, one legit and one rogue -  working against the another from within.

Just more evidence of the velvet coup we are grown accustomed to watching unfold before our eyes.
