Eric Holder is resigning...

...now if we could just prosecute this crooked bastard for multiple counts of legitimate corruption throughout his unelected term with Obama!
NYTimes: Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. is resigning, the Justice Department said Thursday, but plans to remain in office until a successor is confirmed.

Mr. Holder, the 82nd attorney general and the first African-American to serve in that position, had previously said he planned to leave office by the end of this year.

Particularly in President Obama’s second term, Mr. Holder has been the most prominent liberal voice of the administration...
Got that right! An all-around hyper-partisan riling up anything and everything imaginable, particularly in the race-baiting department, to provide political cover and convenient distractions for Dear Leader.

Among the first charges that Holder should be held accountable for is the Fast & Furious gunrunning scandal, of which he was just denied another delay request in the release of documents. He assuredly wants to be gone when that goes down! (H/t: HotAir)
TownHall: "The government’s arguments for even more time are unconvincing," Bates said in his ruling. "[S]eventy-five days—plus another twenty-one, based in part on Judiciary Watch’s consent—is enough time for the government to prepare the index that this Court has ordered, given that this matter has been pending for over two years. The Court will therefore extend the Department’s Vaughn index submission deadline to October 22, 2014—and no further."

"The government argues that it must devote significant numbers of attorneys to this matter if it hopes to comply with the current Vaughn index deadline ... But the Department has known about its Vaughn index obligations since July 18, 2014 ... At best, it means the Department has been slow to react to this Court’s previous Order. At worst, it means the Department has ignored that Order until now," he added.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg in THE most corrupt Attorney General in modern American history's grab bag (e.g., New Black Panther intimidation, Fort Hood, opposition to Voter ID laws, Arizona immigration law, AP wiretap surveillance, targeting FoxNews, contempt of Congress, etc., etc., etc.).

But it won't be easy to nail this guy down, because remember, he knows nothing...
