After 5 1/2 bumpy years of controversial service, the besieged but bolstered attorney general, Eric Holder, resigned. But is this close friend and confidant of President Barack Obama's really stepping down for some benign reason at a critical time for our country, or is there a sinister and strategic plan behind it all?
First, it's far more than a coincidence that the United States' chief lawyer is leaving office with more unanswered questions about crucial life-and-death national dilemmas than any previous attorney general. Though most have been accused of sitting on issues, none has been so assailed as Holder for personally stonewalling investigations, covering up government involvement and refusing to deal with politically explosive controversies. Holder has not prosecuted such monumental and rights-infringing crimes as the Fast and Furious debacle; the Benghazi, Libya, tragedy; National Security Agency wiretappings; press infringements; drone attacks on U.S. citizens; and the Internal Revenue Service scandal.
The Bronx, New York-born 63-year-old Holder proudly boasted that he had "taken steps to protect the environment," taken swift action in Ferguson, Missouri, and even opened a broad probe into the police department in Ferguson. However, he — like our president and even Secretary of State John Kerry — hasn't said a single word over the past six months about Marine reservist Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi's being wrongly imprisoned in Mexico.
Sadly, it has been recently reported that Tahmooressi, who suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, is "highly despondent" because of the drastic deterioration of his mental health. And still, Holder refuses to speak up on behalf of this suffering, imprisoned American patriot.
Can you say resignation of denial and avoidance?
If Obama invoked executive privilege when Holder sat before Congress to protect him from his role in Fast and Furious, who's to say he isn't protecting him again — or vice versa — through Holder's resignation? What better way to avoid the line of fire than to move completely out of the way? And what if Obama and Holder are not only protecting themselves from some past public sin through his resignation but also prepping Holder for some future position by his absence from the public stage?
That's exactly what Rush Limbaugh proposed this past week. He explained the scary scenario this way:
"After you perform your six years of government service, you then retire to the private sector and get paid off for it. People hire you who are grateful for what you did, or you go back to your law firm, where you are a rainmaker, don't even have to do any work.
"They put your name on the letterhead, on the door, and you attract clients and get a percentage of what walks in the door. There is any number of ways this can happen. But there's also another possibility regarding Eric Holder. I just want you to prepare yourself. It may happen. We still have two years to go.
"There may be a Supreme Court vacancy, and I can see Barack Obama nominating Eric Holder to fill it, and it would be much easier for Eric Holder to make the jump from private-sector law firm rainmaker after six years at (the Department of Justice) to the Supreme Court than from DOJ straight to the Supreme Court. I don't know how much that would matter, but don't rule any of that out. I don't think there's any scandal. I don't think it's Fast and Furious. I don't think he's worried about the Republicans investigating anything if they win the Senate."
It is worth noting that Rahm Emanuel resigned as Obama's chief of staff two years before the end of the president's first term in order to attain the post of mayor of Chicago — a resignation that Obama labeled as "bittersweet," which he also did with Holder's.
Hillary Clinton was next, with her resignation as secretary of state, which most people think was in order to run for president in 2016.
Now, two years before the end of the president's second term, could Obama and Holder's scope be set on SCOTUS? Given they are the kings of corrupt calculated chess moves, I believe the odds are incredibly high.
Having finished their insider dirty work, this trinity of terror (Emanuel, Clinton and Holder) is being sent out like apostles onto the mission field to infuse Obama's Cabinet's secular progressive agenda into the deepest roots of the land.
Liberal legacy and progressive perpetuity is the name of their game and their master plan.
Next week, I will give even more evidence of this master plan and explain exactly how and when a SCOTUS seat replacement would occur.
