President Obama has acted unconstitutionally in extending amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. To his credit, Speaker John Boehner has responded appropriately thus far – leading his caucus and chamber to exercise the “power of the purse,” eliminating all funding for Team Obama’s serial unconstitutional actions.

Unfortunately, his Senate counterpart, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, has decided to throw in the towel on such a principled response to presidential lawlessness. Sen. McConnell’s effective collapse on a funding-cutoff for amnesty simply rewards Obama’s misconduct.

All the more reason why Leader McConnell must now block the nomination of Lorretta Lynch as the next Attorney General. We don’t need – and can’t afford – at Justice someone who, like Eric Holder, enables this President’s faithless execution of his sworn duty to protect and defend the Constitution.
