Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) told Gretchen Carlson today that Eric Holder should be impeached if he does not appoint a special prosecutor to look into the Obama IRS Scandal.
“Just a couple of weeks ago I publicly called on the Attorney General Eric Holder to appoint a special prosecutor with meaningful independence to investigate the abuse of power. And if the Attorney General doesn’t do that in my view the House of Representatives should begin impeachment proceedings against the Attorney General. We cannot have the chief law enforcement officer of the United States openly mocking and disregarding the law in refusing to investigate the Obama administration simply for partisan reasons.”
