For months the State Department and the White House have refused to issue requested information about the 9/11 terrorist attack in Benghazi to Congressional investigators. More specifically, the administration has refused to release documentation and communications surrounding the talking points used to explain Benghazi to the American people. As a result, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee Darrell Issa sent a letter to Secretary of State John Kerry Tuesday informing him about subpoenas being issued to State Department employees.

This could lead to the impeachment of Barack Obama. This could lead to perjury charges for Hillary Clinton.

Congress still hasn’t gotten documents that they’ve asked for, pertaining to Fast & Furious.

"Subpoena? From Issa? That's not something we have to respond to, is it?"

Congress still hasn’t gotten documents that they’ve asked for, pertaining to Fast & Furious.

DOJ's refusal to respond to subpoenas was sent to Federal District Court. The arguments have been made and a decision is due shortly.

It will almost certainly favor the Committee and force Holder to turn over the requested documents -- or face Contempt of Court charges (a bookend for his current Contempt of Congress charge).

At the same time, President Obama's absurd claim of "Executive Privilege" for discussions he claims he never had with Holder regarding F&F will probably be shot down.

Fast & Furious will be back on the front-burner in short order.

You would think the top attorney in the land would show some dignity and bow down.. And bow out. But Nooooooooooo, he’s got to stay in there and show us AND CONGRESS that they are now totally UNACCOUNTABLE TO ANYONE. Can you say ‘Dictatorship’??
