Eric Holder Meet Mirror

[1]The mighty Bill Barr Bomber has departed the IP and is on bomb run to destroy elements of the most corrupt FBI since J. Edgar Hoover.  To no one’s s surprise but to little consequence Barr has drawn flax, from PJ Media [2]:

This week, the only attorney general to be held in contempt of Congress accused the sitting attorney general of being “unfit to lead the Justice Department.” Yes, Eric Holder said William Barr is too political to serve as attorney general. Talk about projection!

“When appropriate and justified, it is the attorney general’s duty to support Justice Department components, ensure their integrity and insulate them from political pressures. His or her ultimate loyalty is not to the president personally, nor even to the executive branch, but to the people — and the Constitution — of the United States,” Holder wrote in an op-ed for The Washington Post.

Eric Holder should know. Few attorneys general have been as shamelessly partisan in support of their president as he was.

When Holder announced his retirement from DOJ in 2014, Nick Gillespie, the libertarian editor-in-chief at Reason.com, bade him good riddance. “Holder’s tenure has been marked by a disturbing mix of duplicity, incompetence, and obliviousness,” Gillespie wrote.

One can only suppose that Mr. Holder is pining for a Jeff Sessions again, an attorney general who rolls over for the democrat whims.
