A former Justice Department attorney who resigned last month in protest of the Obama administration's handling of a voter intimidation case involving the New Black Panther Party accused a top Justice official of lying under oath about the circumstances surrounding the decision to drop the case.
J. Christian Adams, now an attorney in Virginia and a blogger for Pajamas Media, told Fox News in an exclusive interview that aired Wednesday that Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez provided false testimony in May to the United States Commission on Civil Rights, which is investigating the department's decision to drop charges against three members of the radical group in a case that the government won.
Perez told the commission that the facts and the law didn't support the case against the group.
"I know about the truth…and I know what the truth is and I know to say the facts and law don't support the Black Panther case is not true," Adams said, adding that Perez ignored his warnings not to provide false testimony.
"We made it very clear that continuing to say that the facts and the law don't support this case would not be consistent with the truth," he said.

Yep, he told it like it is and I believe he’s dead on the money.
Folks, understand something,
if we DON’T do something about this,
we’re giving the Black Panthers license and immunity from prosecution for ANY crimes they want to commit.
This is EXACTLY what many of their mindset want. As they’ve already stated - “payback time”.
They damn well better have the power of the state at their back, seeing as how their support demographic is outnumbered 8 to 1.
Excellent graphic!
Thanks. I think I should have made the title, “Electorial Terrorism”.
I am waiting for Congress to appoint a Special Prosecutor. HAH!
I’m beginning to feel like a cornered, wild animal. They’re pushing me beyond what I can endure.
And maybe that’s their point.
Funny that these SOBs don’t try to do this in states where people are armed or can be armed shortly.
I don’t know, for anyone that’s read a story about the incident I’m sure they know voter rights is exactly what it’s about.
Obama needs to go now. He is no friend of America.
I heard this on Rush today. Obama’s Dept. of Justice told the lawyers to drop the case against the Black Panthers in the voter intimidation case; based strictly on race.
I think it gets to a point of just wearing us down to a state of having no reaction but annoyed acceptance. ? Which is not good, and it scares me.
I understand your remarks, but what can we do? The post yesterday said it was clear from Holder that they would NOT be prosecuting blacks for voter intimidation. The DOJ just will not do it. What do we do? Call the WH and ask them to look into it?
btt
You have to pay attention to the news first,,50% of the idiots love Obama because he is bad for white America, (they are racist or America haters) 25% of this country is apathetic about politics.
The other 25% are to busy working = Obamanomics!
Say it!
(Emasculated/blackmailed Repugs with skeletons in closets?)
0bama’s administration is like the concentrated essence of all that is evil.
And the Repugs act like bunnies being stared down by a huge cobra.
“He is no friend of America.”
He has no friends. Period. He’s surrounded by leeches, morons, sychophants, poltroons and jackels.
Evil people never are friends and never have friends.
“I’m beginning to feel like a cornered, wild animal. They’re pushing me beyond what I can endure.”
That’s what they’ve been doing for a long time, but they are not upping the pressure, hoping that someone snaps.
