I’m sure this is very real.

However, explain why Holder is making this announcement.
Why isn't someone from the Department of Homeland Security up there? Or CIA?

Th fact is this has nothing to do with the jurisdiction of the DOJ. Even the reporters weren't buying it. One F&F question and Holder bolts.

And this operation began with the DEA and was continued by the FBI. Both organizations are in the Department of Justice, not in DHS.
