Time For Holder To Resign//Be Fired?

[red dog 1]

31. Here's what Daniel Klaidman recently wrote for the Daily Beast on May 28

(The Daily Beast is hardly a right-wing publication, wouldn't you agree?)

"It was Friday May 17, and officials at the Department of Justice had gotten word that the Washington Post was working on an explosive story..a reporter had obtained an affidavit for a search warrant to seize a Fox News journalist's personal e-mails.
Controversy was already swirling around the DOJ over the recent revelation that federal prosecutors had seized the phone records of reporter sand editors from the Associated Press in a separate leak probe.
Media organizations, civil-liberties groups, and members of Congress were in an uproar about the AP case, which they regarded as an appealing intrusion of freedom of the press
Now came the Post's discovery of the Fox affidavit, which was part of a three-year-old investigation into a State Department contract employee who had allegedly leaked highly classified information about North Korea.
And this case had an ominous wrinkle that the AP case had lacked.
In the affidavit, investigators had indicated that the reporter himself, James Rosen, might also be guilty of a crime -- for simply soliciting the information.
DOJ officials, realizing the issue could turn into a press feeding frenzy, went into damage control mode.
Over the weekend, they scrambled to prepare their response, including readying a press statement assuring that [DOJ] had no plans to indict Rosen."

Klaidman goes on to relate how Attorney general Holder reacted to all this, which I won't post here...it's just too long; but, if you care to, you can read it for yourself.
