Sometime after 10 this morning, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform will vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. The vote comes after a closed-door meeting last night between Holder, House Oversight Chairman Darrell Issa, R- Calif., where Holder refused to turn over documents subpoenaed by Issa in relation to the Department of Justice’s false (and since retracted) letter denying government whistleblower allegations that DOJ allowed the sale of guns to Mexican cartels as part of their “Fast and Furious” program.
