Eric Holder was the United States attorney general from 2009 to 2015, and referred to himself as Barack Obama’s “wingman.” Now, he is whining that the suddenly “politicized” Justice department will cause people to die, without giving examples. (Democrats always claim Republican policies cause massive deaths.)

The founding fathers recognized that the press had great power in the First Amendment to hold the powerful to account—but that’s not what MSNBC does.

Obama and Holder ran a gun-running operation called Fast and Furious, and hid documents from Congress. Holder repeatedly lied to Congress:
