Darrell Issa blasts Eric Holder's tenure as 'most divisive US Attorney General in modern history'

Eric Holder is the most divisive U.S. Attorney General in modern history.
— Darrell Issa (@DarrellIssa) September 25, 2014

Holder also has the dubious distinction of, in a vote supported by 17 Dem Members, being the first AG held in criminal contempt of the House
— Darrell Issa (@DarrellIssa) September 25, 2014

By needlessly injecting politics into law enforcement, Holder's legacy has eroded more confidence in our legal system than any AG before him
— Darrell Issa (@DarrellIssa) September 25, 2014

Holder has strong-armed reporters, practically ignored high-level wrongdoing, and blocked his own agency's Inspector General's access.
— Darrell Issa (@DarrellIssa) September 25, 2014

These actions are an abuse of Holder's office and fail to uphold the values of our Constitution.
— Darrell Issa (@DarrellIssa) September 25, 2014

POTUS and the Senate must be expeditious, but time & care must be taken to ensure our next AG recognizes & does not repeat Holder's mistakes

@KatiePavlich Unfortunately it can be 'Holder - Part Deux' with Dems still in control of lame duck Senate w/ Reid's Rules.

'Good Lord!' This claim about Eric Holder is Chuck Todd's most idiotic lie yet (No, for serious)

Possibly the dumbest thing @chucktodd has ever said? http://t.co/5lfiMwz9ax

Good Lord, @chucktodd. Are you fucking serious? http://t.co/Tjs6blnDKp

Does THIS absurd tweet about Eric Holder prove Sen. Schumer is 'delusional'? (Spoiler: OMG yes)

AG Holder was like ‘Horatius at the Bridge’ preventing or slowing down the regressive march to take away people’s hard-earned rights.
— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) September 25, 2014

@SenSchumer you never were going to get my vote, but now I think you should be removed from office due to you being completely delusional
— Steve (@steveo_moose) September 25, 2014

Don't look now Chuck Schumer, but you are being mercilessly mocked for your Holder idiocy!

LOL LOL RT @RBPundit: What the fuck are you babbling about? https://t.co/EP5Yh8cmlP @SenSchumer
