Breaking: Holder DOJ Went Judge Shopping to Three Different Judges Armed With Criminal Warrants for James Rosen The Holder Department of Justice went judge shopping with criminal warrants for James Rosen.

Two separate judges refused to offer DOJ the ability to secretly search the contents of Rosen’s e-mail account. A third judge, Royce C. Lamberth, appealed the decision and overturned the order of the two judges.

Judge Royce C. Lamberth was the third judge approached by the DOJ. He appealed two previous judges’ decision and allowed the DOJ to secretly snoop on FOX News reporter James Rosen.

The House of Representatives voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in criminal contempt of Congress. The vote was 255 ayes, 67 nays, and 1 present vote.

Eric Holder official portrait

Seventeen Democrats joined with 238 Republicans to vote for the contempt charges against Holder, while over 100 Democrats did not vote, most of them symbolically walking out of the House chamber in protest.

Update: Fox News reports that the House has also voted to hold Holder in civil contempt, 258 to 95.

DOJ/Ohaha's using the 1917 Espionage Act to nail journos (poor overworked Valerie Jarrett burned the midnight oil to come up with that one).

========================================

REFERENCE The DOJ search warrant in the Rosen case cites Section 793(d) of Title 18 of the U.S. Code...... a person lawfully in possession of secret govt-classified info who turns it over to someone not lawfully entitled to posses it has committed a crime (The source).....anyone who conspires to help the source do that has committed the same crime (The journo).

So why the brouhaha? B/c the Obummber crew has NEVER, EVER exhibited a modicum of interest in defending US ntl security from foreign domination ---- nor has it exhibited a concern for the life and liberties of Americans.

On the contrary----via "immigration reform" Ohaha is forcing on Americans entire primitive populations of creepy savages emanating from antediluvean Third World countries.

VALERIE TOLD OHAHA YOUR HOMELAND NEEDS MONEY--NOW' S THE TIME TO EXTORT US TAXPAYERS When the Kenyan butcher hacked a Brit soldier to death, and defiantly gave an interview with blood-soaked hands, Valerie okayed $50 million to Kenya---as a sign of Ohaha's "tolerance and compassion.".

===============================================

YAWN More stupid futile nation-building ---- to subsidize living standards for the Kenya hellhole (dumbos still have no water, electricity, adequate shelter and food). But forget these "amenities" --- your tax dollars will build Kenyan "madrassas" to train more of these jihadist zealots to butcher innocent people.

What an idiotic characterization by Jim Hoft. Taking an appeal of a denial is not "judge shopping." Judge shopping would be going from one trial court to another until you get a trial court / magistrate to sign the warrant.

Not defending Lamberth's decision, but his role is to review decisions by lower courts.

Moreover, the original magistrate judge had issued the warrant. The dispute here involved the question of disclosure: i.e., whether DOJ was going to have to notify Rosen (at some future time, at a minimum) that his electronic files were being searched, or whether DOJ could keep that information secret for as long as DOJ liked (including, forever).

Time to boot 0’s goons to the curb. Holder is at the top of the list. The only thing that makes me a little apprehensive is whether the next in line will be worse.

This possibility had occurred to me.

I just want video of this crew being drug by the collars, on their backs, all the way to prison.

They need to impeach the judge that approved this. Especially if that judge knew two other judges had declined.

I’ll have to read this entire thing....

Judge Royce C. Lamberth has always been one of the good guys.

It's okay, because Judge Lambert apologized -- at least for failing to unseal the warrant order.

A federal judge ordered him to unseal the documents in November 2011, but stuff happens ...

I forgot to put this up on the depending of Obama on Jarrett.. President Obama canceled the operation to kill Osama bin Laden three times before saying yes, because he got cold feet about the possible political harm to himself if the mission failed. Instead of listening to advisors from the U.S. military, Defense, or even State, Obama was acting on the advice of White House politico and close friend Valerie Jarrett. Valerie Jarrett? Is the story credible? According to Edward Klein, a reporter once asked Obama if he ran every decision by Jarrett. Obama answered, “Yep. Absolutely.” http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/08/obamas_strange_dependence_on_valerie_jarrett.html
