Abuse of power 129
Senator Ted Cruz, in straight, strong, plain words, asks Attorney General Eric Holder to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the IRS targeting of conservative groups and how Holder’s Department of Justice is handling the issue. He cites precedents. He speaks of abuse of power and conflict of interest. Holder rejects the idea. He says that the precedents no longer apply, as he himself wrote new rules that protect him from any such probe.
