I can't tell you how much I LOVE this!
A new fashion trend is sweeping the halls of the Justice Department for spring Free Eric Holder wristbands, an inside joke among Attorney General Eric Holders top aides and supporters about the months-long political standoff over his successor.
The black rubber bracelets were the idea of Molly Moran, a senior Justice Department official, according to people who have received them. The wristbands, like the kind people wear to support various charities or causes, started appearing on staffers wrists a couple weeks ago, when it became clear there was no end in sight to the standoff over the nomination of Loretta Lynch...
Staffers have paid for the bracelets with their own money not taxpayer funds and have talked about making Free Eric Holder T-shirts as well.
Were hoping for a day we dont have to wear these bracelets anymore, even if it takes a charity album, joked one.

"One of the best ways to deal with the kind of insanity we're seeing from Congressional Republicans over things like the Loretta Lynch nomination is to simply point and laugh."
I agree.. Mahalo for your OP.

Or alternatively, Obama could just go and fire him....

The Justice Department came to my hometown and filed a Fried of the Court brief in support of the local Islamic community, who were tied up in a ridiculous court case.
