Video: Senator John Cornyn face to face with Holder: 'Resign'

At a Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing today, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) lit into Attorney General Eric Holder. Shortly after Cornyn told Holder that the Attorney General had 'violated the public trust,' the Senator from Texas then told Holder that he should 'resign.' Clearly adding to Cornyn's anger are the recent revelations of national security leaks that have originated from the White House.

Before launching into his problems with Fast and Furious, Cornyn expressed frustration with Holder's appointment of two non-independent Attorneys to investigate those national security leaks. Cornyn is clearly not ok with these two individuals reporting to Holder directly and to make his case as to why, he segued into Operation Fast and Furious.

If Obama is behind the leaks, Holder has reason to be angry with the President because by leaking national security secrets, the White House has essentially kicked the already disturbed hornet's nest that is Fast and Furious.

Holder clearly is taking the brunt of it here, one day after it was announced that the contempt hearing would be held on June 20th.

This is a must-see exchange. The arrogance of Eric Holder is very difficult to beat.
