You very much Brian 52 lawmakers on Capitol Hill now calling on attorney general Eric Holder to step down over his role in the fast and furious scandal.
And Eric Holder not happy about it in fact he thinks the web site daily caller dot com.
Is actually behind the movement to get rid of them.
-- here to react the founder.
Of the daily caller and a Fox News contributor Tucker Carlson good morning to you Tucker Gretchen so the attorney general believes that somehow the daily caller has so much power -- -- -- had the ability to get 52 members of congress to ask for his resignation.
That we run the House of Representatives which is -- everyone knows FOX & Friends runs the house.
I.
Guess it.
Is it Sony had it out my enemies today and we have -- -- marvelous picture of him waving his finger in the face of Neil -- one of our reporters yesterday.
And accusing us of orchestrating this campaign the truth is.
The facts of fact the fast and furious the idea that the federal government gave guns to Mexican drug lord those guns were then used to kill people including Americans.
-- so overwhelming.
That we don't need to be a part of some diabolical plot you know the Justice Department did -- he runs the Justice Department and by the -- you wouldn't know that.
Reading the conventional press.
They have made excuses for Eric Holder it's 51 house members -- senator three presidential candidates calling for his resignation that's not news.
Well in fact says I believe Bill O'Reilly did a breakdown of how often the mainstream media did cover this story and it wasn't very off -- So the bottom line now -- is at the hearings are for the most part complete it that's right.
So where do we stand with regard to do you think that more and more senators are gonna get on -- and understanding that the first senator came out last night was -- Isaacson Johnny Isaacson and -- asked for his -- that's right.
And yes we did I don't look I can despite this and as aborted suggested we are not -- controlled legislative branch like to be but not.
But I believe there will be more senators calling for his resignation and the facts are pretty tough.
Mean this was a massive mistake he is the head of the organization now you're seeing various news organizations.
Basically take his side in the so he didn't know is if we know whether he knew or not we don't.
But the truth is he's responsible for what happens.
If his agency what do you think that he had that reaction to your reporter.
Because it hasn't been covered as much by the believe comforted I mean our reporter Matt Boyle -- written a number of stories on this because look this is the attorney general of the United States this is not a small thing.
This is not some -- is not you know something about his personal life this is not.
You know the twists and turns of of the presidential campaign I mean those are the issues that the press spends a lot of its time covering.
And frankly they don't -- very much this means something this is the head that law enforcement official in the United States of America.
And you've got fifty members of congress calling for his resignation c'mon.
And you actually believe that in the end he will resign -- -- there's a presidential race on and I think that -- I think the candidates once they stop Republican candidates once they stop.
Attacking one another -- will at some point one suspects turn their attention to.
The Obama administration and this is one of the most appalling scandals of the past three years but -- is any question whoever the nominee is is gonna spend a lot of time talking up fast and furious.
And I don't know what Eric holder's answer is it can't just be wagging his finger in the face of reporters and -- stopping mean to me.
It's got to be more than that.
I take it that you will continue to cover the story and the daily news as we well aren't so -- -- expression thanks.
