Attorney General Eric Holder Statement on Grand Jury Decision

NOVEMBER 25, 2014–Attorney General Eric Holder released the following statement Monday regarding the conclusion of the St. Louis County grand jury proceeding in the shooting of Michael Brown:

\”While the grand jury proceeding in St. Louis County has concluded, the Justice Department’s investigation into the shooting of Michael Brown remains ongoing. Though we have shared information with local prosecutors during the course of our investigation, the federal inquiry has been independent of the local one from the start, and remains so now. Even at this mature stage of the investigation, we have avoided prejudging any of the evidence. And although federal civil rights law imposes a high legal bar in these types of cases, we have resisted forming premature conclusions.

GUEST COMMENTARY: Obama Chooses Illegal Immigrants Over Black American Voters

\"6a00d8341bf7d953ef019aff44950d970b-320wi\"

Addressing the nation Thursday, President Obama sought to justify his misreading of the Constitution by unilaterally granting legal protection to 5 million illegal immigrants. In this, he reminded me of what Richard Nixon told David Frost in a 1977 interview. The exchange is worth recalling: Frost: \”So what in a sense you\’re saying is that there…
 
The unemployment rate among black Americans is twice that of whites, which is why they should be outraged by the president\’s action. Don\’t black Americans \”dream\” of a better life? Of course they do. Then why hasn\’t the president focused on repairing their families, reducing crime in cities like Chicago, where he launched his political career, and allowing members of his race to escape from failed public schools that are robbing them of a future?
