A group of fed-up House Republicans who say they are tired of being stonewalled by Attorney General Eric Holder plan to formally introduce articles of impeachment on Thursday in a bid to remove the nation’s top law enforcement officer from office.
Several GOP congressmen have been drafting articles of impeachment over a number of controversies relating to the U.S. Department of Justice. The lawmakers’ grievances include Holder’s refusal to turn over documents relating to Operation Fast and Furious, the DOJ’s habit of selectively enforcing federal laws, and the department’s refusal to prosecute IRS officials who accessed confidential taxpayer information, among other things.
The articles of impeachment also accuse Holder of providing false testimony to Congress, which is a “clear violation” of the law.
While of course the Marxists will just laugh, it’s still about time, this man more than deserves to live out the rest of his day’s in a dungeon…
Yeah. Even if he is impeached - my Constitutional law might be a little rusty - I believe he still has to stand trial before he will spend a day in prison.
Though nothing will come of this effort, it’s good to see that five of the co-sponsors are from Texas including the one from my district. One more reason for Obama/Holder and Washington to be pissed off at Texas. Send it O…
Yep. Lots of people forget that Clinton was impeached and I betcha $100 if you were to ask people if president Andrew Johnson was impeached most Americans wouldn’t even know about it. Hell I doubt most people in this country know who president Johnson was or who was president before him.
For some reason people automatically think impeachment means removal from office.
I think both have about the same chance of happening ?
