Contempt of Congress

Posted June 29, 2019 1:00 am

I wonder if media libs remember way back to 2012 when Attorney General Eric Holder was held in contempt of Congress for his refusal to talk about the "Fast and Furious" gun-running operation. The Media was up in arms over Holder's treatment, but now that AG Barr is doing the same thing that Holder did, the liberals say it's OK.

Whatever happened to Holder's contempt citation? Oh that's right - nothing.

Or when Lois Lerner in 2016 refused to answer questions about her role in denying tax-exempt status to groups that the Obama administration considered subversive and she was cited for contempt and again the libs were flabbergasted that such a thing could occur. Whatever happened to Lerner? Again - nothing.

I guess it all depends on whose ox was gored.
