Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON DC I dont believe that Attorney General Holder or his deputy are going to be able to do a truly independent investigation" said U.S. Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) a member of the Senate Judiciary and Armed Services Committees calling for a truly independent investigation" into the leaking of classified national security information. Deputy Attorney General James Cole informed Sen. Cornyn yesterday that the Department of Justice did not intend to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the recent leaks of classified information.
The leaks appear to have formed the basis of two New York Times reports about the White Houses role in classified national security efforts one detailing the use of cyber warfare against Iran and the other the use of drones to hunt and kill suspected terrorists.
I dont think we can just let the White House investigate itself or take its word for it that its not the source of these leaks" said Cornyn.To view Sen. Cornyns remarks click the image below:
