| Vice President nominee Paul Ryan said today he agrees with GOP President nominee Mitt Romney: Attorney General Eric Holder should resign. “The congressman agrees with the governor,” said Ryan spokesman Brendan Buck. “Either Mr. Holder himself should resign, or the president should ask for his resignation or remove him,” said Romney in December 2011. “It’s unacceptable for him to continue in that position now given the fact that he has misled Congress and entirely botched the investigation of the Fast and Furious program.” Representative Ryan is the 131st GOP member to call for Mr. Holder's resignation.

Yes, but if Holder resigns, or is resigned involuntarily, who would protect the rights of the New Black Panthers at the voting booths?

Holder can never be fired. He has held back the FBI from proceeding to investigate the blowing up of the Libya consulate and the rape and murder of our ambassador. For this alone, Obama owes Holder big time.

A federal judge gave a skeptical reception Wednesday to the Obama administration’s arguments that the courts should stay out of the dispute over the Justice Department’s refusal to turn over some Operation Fast and Furious-related documents to a House committee. Last June, the fight led President Barack Obama to assert executive privilege over the records of the controversial gun trafficking investigation, and to House votes finding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena from the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson spent most of an hour-and-a-half hearing Wednesday

Will Kermit Gosnell, former operator of country’s most notorious abortion clinic, be acquitted? On Tuesday, Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey P. Minehart dismissed three of the seven first-degree murder counts against the West Philadelphia doctor, who performed abortions on poor women in his Lancaster Avenue clinic. Minehart did not elaborate on why the charges were dismissed. If convicted of first-degree murder, the 72-year-old doctor could face the death penalty. Gosnell is also charged with third-degree murder in the 2009 death of a Virginia woman, a Bhutan immigrant who spent 20 years in a

UNIVERSITY PARK, Texas —Of all the images to have emerged from the post-presidential George W. Bush, few have been as startling – or as revealing – as his paintings. It’s an unlikely hobby that has developed into a passion for the former president. Bush told ABC News’ Diane Sawyer that he now paints daily, and works with what he called a “patient” instructor once a week at his Dallas home. “I love to paint. It is — painting has changed my life in an unbelievably positive way,” the former president said. When former President Bush’s beloved Scottish Terrier

WASHINGTON — Chicago billionaire Penny Pritzker, under consideration to lead the Commerce Department, gave the president’s 2013 inauguration a contribution of $250,000, not $500,000, according to an amended report filed Tuesday. The Presidential Inaugural Committee, in reporting donors and contributions on Saturday, said Pritzker made a personal gift of $250,000 and her firm, PSP Capital Partners, made a separate gift of $250,000, both on Jan. 8. But the committee filed an amended public report Tuesday, leaving out any donation from Pritzker’s firm. The reports were made to the Federal Election Commission.

The 12-year-old daughter of a U.S. soldier deployed overseas was reportedly sent home from school by administrators for violating the dress code. Cejai Taylor wore a red t-shirt to honor her father, Sgt. James Taylor, and other service members. It was part of a "red shirt day" campaign that she hoped to start at the school. But administrators reportedly objected because the shirt did not have a collar, though they are taking another look at their policy. And here´s the kicker.

The chief of the FAA told Congress today that Washington-area airports will largely escape the effects of the air traffic controller furloughs — a blessing for lawmakers who fly out of the nation’s capitol. Michael Huerta, head of the Federal Aviation Administration, told a congressional panel that the Washington region’s airports are spaced out enough and have enough spare capacity that furloughs to air traffic controllers won’t hurt as much here. He also said Atlanta should escape major problems because the big airfield there has five runways, which makes it easier to space flights out.

PHILADELPHIA - A Philadelphia abortion provider won´t testify or call witnesses at his capital murder trial. Dr. Kermit Gosnell´s decision follows five weeks of prosecution evidence.

He is also charged in the 2009 overdose death of a 41-year-old refugee who died months after coming to the U.S. A string of former employees have testified that Gosnell relied on untrained, unlicensed staff to

Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned. State officials confirmed last night that Tsarnaev, slain in a raging gun battle with police last Friday, was receiving benefits along with his wife, Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, and their 3-year-old daughter. The state’s Executive Office of Health and Human Services said those benefits ended in 2012 when the couple stopped meeting income eligibility limits.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev is telling no tales. The older of the two brothers who committed the Boston Marathon bombings was likely the one who planned the attack, but when he died in a shootout with police just days after the blasts, his thoughts and motivations vanished with him. But the brain that was home to his angry mind remains, and in this case that may mean something. Tsarnaev was an amateur boxer who won the New England Golden Gloves competition as recently as 2009 and 2010. That speaks to a young man with a healthy sense

In the same place,’” Obama said with a smile. “And we´ll go on YouTube and show it off as a family tattoo.” “And our thinking is that might dissuade them from thinking that that somehow that´s

Apparently the latest craze in NYC is to let your babies’ freak flags fly by letting them go commando: When Jada Shapiro decided to raise her daughter from birth without diapers, for the most part, not everyone was amused. Ms. Shapiro scattered little bowls around the house to catch her daughter’s offerings, and her sister insisted that she use a big, dark marker to mark the bowls so that they could never find their way back to the kitchen.

And our laws and our interpretation of the Constitution, I think, have to change.”

Think of it as a horizontal townhouse. Most developers hype the sky-high verticals of their new glitzy buildings, but a new condominium called The Whitman — soon to be home to former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton - has a completely different selling point: It features the longest apartments in the city. The four-unit building stretches an entire block between E. 26th and E. 27th Sts. It takes almost 30 second to walk the approximate 250-foot central corridor.

Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has told investigators his older brother Tamerlan was the driving force behind last week´s attack and that no international terrorist groups were behind them, a U.S. government source said Monday. Preliminary interviews with Tsarnaev indicate the two brothers fit the classification of self-radicalized jihadists, the source said. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, wounded and held in a Boston hospital, has said his brother -- who was killed early Friday -- wanted to defend Islam from attack, according to the source.

Joined by The Daily Beast’s Tina Brown, the panel also took a look at media portrayal — stressing that we can’t “demonize” all of Islam when we talk about radicals. “The whole family was becoming radicalized, and perhaps by their inability to fit in this culture,” Brown remarked, speaking about “home-grown” terrorism and the Tsarnaev family.
