Judge rules against Obama on 'Fast and Furious'


A federal judge on Tuesday ruled President Obama cannot use executive privilege to keep records on the “Fast and Furious” gun-tracking program from Congress.

U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson ordered the administration to release documents that it has been attempting to withhold by asserting executive privilege.

The ruling also requires the administration to release to Congress all "segregable portions" of records they are withholding that are considered “attorney-client privileged material, attorney work product, private information, law enforcement sensitive material, or foreign policy sensitive material.”

House Republicans launched the suit after voting to hold then-Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt for refusing to turn over the records.

I hope it has a direct reflection on The Little Dictator's legacy.
