Media Review Destroys Majority Leadership Campaign of Innuendo

Press Release

Rep. Darrell Issa, today, following detailed examinations of Justice Department records by news media outlets including the Associated Press, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Diego Union-Tribune, the North County Times, and the Voice of San Diego released the following statement:

"The campaign of innuendo and the conspiracy theories put forth by Sen. Chuck Schumer and Rep. Rahm Emmanuelon the dismissal of U.S. Attorneys has not produced evidence of any wrong doing in the dismissal of U.S. Attorneys. Sen. Schumer and Rep. Emmanuel have turned a blind eye to a failure to prosecute even those who traffic in human beings and misled the American people for partisan gains. They need to either stand by their assertion that failure to prosecute human smugglers is not serious or they need to retract their statements."
