He was maligned, falsely accused, portrayed as a racist, and unjustly characterized as the polar opposite of the wonderful person that he is. Yet, when Sen. Jeff Sessions emerged victorious in his confirmation for the position of United States attorney general, he demonstrated to the world what a true leader looks like. This man of great integrity was gracious and humble, revealing just one of the many reasons why he is worthy to be the attorney general. As Sen. Sessions stepped up to the microphone to say goodbye to his colleagues, everyone wondered what he would say to those who...

Whenever Bill Clinton gets on a plane to meet a woman, he’s usually up to no good. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said her impromptu tarmac summit at Phoenix Sky Harbor was a purely social affair. Golf and grandchildren were on the agenda, she said -- and not how a home-brew server crammed with classified information ended up in Bill’s basement. However, the attorney general normally doesn’t meet with family members of a target in an active FBI criminal investigation. Hillary is just that -- a target in an FBI criminal investigation. But you’d never know that listening to Attorney...

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says President Barack Obama’s Attorney General nominee, Loretta Lynch, is unfit to be the nation’s top lawyer because of her support for executive amnesty and other positions she’s taken, the governor’s spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski tells Breitbart News.“Given Loretta Lynch’s failure to commit to protect Americans from the president’s lawless executive overreach, that even he said nearly two dozen times, she is not fit to serve as the nation’s Attorney General,” Kukowski said in an email.Walker is in New Hampshire,the first in the nation primary state,on Friday, meeting with—among other—former Sen.

Senator Ted Cruz (R., Texas) and a group of House lawmakers are building a case for impeaching Attorney General Eric Holder. “Impeding justice is intolerable and he should not be permitted to refuse the American people a true investigation into the actions of those who used the machinery of government to target, intimate, and silence them for politically driven reasons,” Cruz said during a June 26 floor speech. Cruz had made such comments before, but this speech was different. He spent 40 minutes laying out the case for Holder’s impeachment — spending the bulk of that time on the IRS...

In my column on Wednesday, I documented only a small part of the massive case against the confirmation of Eric Holder for attorney general. I thought that his illegally and improperly facilitating the pardoning of 18 unrepentant terrorists and the biggest tax swindler in history who was also a fugitive for justice for 20 years was enough to raise fatal questions about President-elect Barack ObamaÂ’s judgment and confirmation. But then I saw how the mainstream media is greasing the skids for his nomination, over any and all objections, so I thought I better spend more time trying to wake up...

Cheerleaders for TerrorismBy Erick StakelbeckFrontPageMagazine.com | June 17, 2003 Two groups whom Islamic terrorists can count on for sympathy and support are radical lawyers and their counterparts in American law schools. Lynne Stewart is a hero of the National Lawyers Guild and a sought-after campus lecturer. While out on bail under indictment for colluding with a terrorist leader, she has been a sought-after speaker for law school audiences who relish her attacks on Attorney General John Ashcroft as a modern-day fascist and on her country for its imperialist and racist policies. Stewart made national headlines in April 2002 when she...
