OK so assume that Holder and his cronies did, in fact, lie to Congress about Fast & Furious. What is Congress going to do, arrest Holder? Or are they going to demand that Holder arrest himself? Who has the power to arrest and try a criminal case here?

I’m not a lawyer but Congress obviously has investigarive power and it may be a special counsel has prosecutorial powers. Hopefully a legal beagle will come along and clarify for us.

“...Who has the power to arrest and try a criminal case here?”

That’s a good question, because ,as a country, we have never had to deal with such a national corrupt administration.

Given the fact that it would normally be investigated by the DOJ , but the DOJ is also the perpatrator , there is no current provision for prosecution . It would have to be prosecuted by someone who is above reproach , and is above the body of politics involved.
