Breitbart to AG Holder: Investigate ACORN or We’ll Release More Tapes Just Before 2010 Election
by PubliusEarlier tonight Andrew Breitbart, James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles discussed the final chapter of the ACORN L.A. saga on “Hannity,” but more interestingly, Breitbart disclosed where the story goes from here. Transcript (below) starts from 3:50 into the clip:
Breitbart: There’s a lot of hypocrisy and the dust has settled for ACORN and at the end of the day they’ve recognized that Eric Holder, the Attorney General, has not initiated an investigation into ACORN after we now have seven tapes. There were five initially that came out, ACORN was defunded by the Senate, was defunded by the House, lost it’s link to the Census; while all that damage occurred, Congress didn’t come in to investigate them, obviously not the Attorney General’s office, and they’ve now realized let’s get back into business because they realized that the dust settled and they were not being investigated, it was Hannah, James, and me who were being investigated, that’s why we’ve been forced to offer this latest tape.
Hannity: Are you saying, Andrew, that there are more tapes?
Breitbart: Oh my goodness there are! Not only are there more tapes, it’s not just ACORN. And this message is to Attorney General Holder: I want you to know that we have more tapes, it’s not just ACORN, and we’re going to hold out until the next election cycle, or else if you want to do a clean investigation, we will give you the rest of what we have, we will comply with you, we will give you the documentation we have from countless ACORN whistleblowers who want to come forward but are fearful of this organization and the retribution that they fear that this is a dangerous organization. So if you get into an investigation, we will give you the tapes; if you don’t give us the tapes, we will revisit these tapes come election time.
Hannity: This is a blockbuster, what you’re saying here. You guys have more tapes, you’ll release them before the election, that could have a big impact on the election, obviously…

I totally agree with TheRightSide… Balls-o-steel!!! Awesome Work!! Will Eric Holder take the threat seriously?!?!
im tossed between holder the joke going after acorn and wanting to see the rest of the tapes especialy right befor the next elections bet holder n obozo mhad to change their diapers after this one
Andrew you must bring these bastards down, break Acorn, Holder, Obama, keep releasing this stuff to the public, you give it to Holder they will only bury it. You are dealing with a legal elected criminal mafia. You need to get McCotter and other like minded congressman to open this investigation.

One has to question why wait until prior to the election to release additional tapes? Andrew, you are a wizard, but it would have been wiser to just threaten expose without a timeline.
Needless to say, there is more than ample evidence to initiate an investigation now. Stay on it Hannity. Get on it Beck. O'Reilly, give it two sections on your show. The iron is hot here. The Libtards are actually looking at POX these days. Hang the bastards.
The criminals are in control of Washington…in every department since the election. Obama has stacked the government against the people and it will not be an easy task to bring them to justice…BUT IT MUST HAPPEN! Holder is in so far over his head as Attorney General just as Obama is in way over his head too. This is so scary to see this Administration flounder and dither and do such crazy stuff and ignore what is important to the people.
I think Andrew is smart enough to make copies of everything he has before handing it over to Holder. Then if Holder tried to "bury" it, Andrew could not only release all the information he handed over to Holder, but also ask the question: Why did you bury this Holder?
Got to love Andrew. Got to hate the admin, each and everyone.
I have never dipsised anyone before in my life. Odumbo's admin and he himself have taken me to new levels of hatred. God bless Andrew and that entire crew.
Go Andrew , Hannah & James!!! I hope you all are taking safety precautions – I don't trust this bunch of thugs AT ALL!! Come on Rush, Beck and O'Reilly — you need to hit this EVERY damn night until we can run this trash out.
You say investigate ACORN or you'll release videos before 2010 election. DO IT. Tired of Pansy, be nice Conservatives..BE IN IT TO WIN IT.
We need to start playing the game to win. We are rapidly losing this country to Socialism and we either need to fight to get it back or give up….no in between or we will lose and lose it permanently.
Bwahahaha!
Breitbart: "I'm sorry, but it seems you were just royally pwnd. Would you like another glass of pwnage, sir?"
You guys rock! Go Go Go!
We're not worthy!
It looks like Breitbart Giles and Okeef have taken care of every aspect of this, to both protect themselves and make sure the democrats pay if they try to sweep it under the carpet…
http://cooperscopy.blogspot.com/
Unfortunately true.
This is part of the problem, that they absolutely do not play fair and fairness is a basic tenet of conservatism.
O/T sorry but…. For all of you residents in SW Florida Glenn Beck is in town Saturday morning for a book signing between 9:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. at the Borders Boof Store at the Coastal Town Center at I-75 and Alico Roads. "Arguments for Idiots" will be signed. Thank you.
I hope Holder does NOT have the authority to put a gag order on Andrew over these tapes!! I think it would have been better NOT to let them know what you are going to do, though…Holder is so sneaky he just might say he is going to investigate, and NOT lift one finger to hurt his mob boss in the White House…I'm just saying…
Breitbart's mind and craftiness is vastly superior to the intelligence of Holder. Holder could be defined as an idiot by comparison. Andrew has his bases covered very well. His "threat" has roots and will not be easily weeded by Holder. Copies of tapes are in the hands of others as security.
It is a sad state of affairs, when Private Citizens, have to weild a club over the head of Government, in order to get them to act, in order to get them to do their job.It is truly pathetic. Eric Holder should resign in shame.

You forget, Cowboy, that Libs have no shame to resign WITH ! Deceptive and corrupt to the core of their beings.
Love it, Andrew!
Thank you to you and all your fearless warriors for protecting us from criminals when our own government won't.
AB, you are a wonderful example of a concerned American citizen. The country is lucky to have you on the job.
Why would you trust any of the people in the Government , its agencies, OR the Media" to do the right thing" ? They've almost "to a man" displayed their absolute contempt for the American Electorate. AND WHY NOT ? Because – that electorate , despite all the evidence of the dishonesty, the corruption , the disdain of the American "common man", the immorality, the "selling of the family silver " to the enemy, the passing unconstitutionally of laws to abridge the rights of that "common man" guaranteed in the Constitution they are all bound by oath on "taking the King's shilling " to honour ,THAT ELECTORATE "elects them again and again". NB: King is Sovereign. In America the COMMON MAN, the citizen is by Constitution and Record the Sovereign ! What does lese majesty mean ?

Last year when Palin showed up for a rally there was a huge crowd. Should be big!

All I can Say Is: It is time for ACORN to go! Thank you Andrew, Hannah, and James. Isn't it funny that these three names have become household. " Did you see Hannah and James on Hannity last night" says my wife.
And "they" want US to take "them" seriously?
[...] Breitbart to AG Holder: Investigate ACORN or We’ll Release More Tapes Just Before 2010 Election Hannity: Are you saying, Andrew, that there are more tapes? [...]
There are right now more of Holder's DOJ prosecutors digging up a case on Andrew Breitbart than on ACORN, SEIU thugs who beat up Town hall attendees, or armed Black panthers who intimidated voters at a Philadelphia polling station.
At the same time, Holder has made the disastrous decision to bring 9/11 co-conspirators to new York for a civilian trial that will lead to exposing CIA methods and sources and could result in acquittals for people who already confessed in the military justice system.
Watch for court proceedings that keep Breitbart from releasing more tapes and threaten him with prosecution, either at the state or federal levels.
Well done Andrew, James, and Hannah! Let us know about a legal defense fund.
Ooooohhhhhh! Wow! Do you think that Holder will live up to Andrew's demands? I doubt it. But it's a good one!
AHUGHFAN
If ACORN didn’t have to do anything, then why are they suing these people? Major fail on your part, go back to the kool aid stand and get a refill since the potency is so low right now.
THAT'S the RIGHT WING Message board humor I love. Nice Joenuke! Again, I will repeat what I said. PLEASE. KEEP IT COMING. It is ALREADY backfiring, and I can't wait to see it implode completely.
Burn these f@#$ers to the ground!! Rip them deep! Tear them APART!
Breitbart, Giles and O'Keefe are the new Woodward and Burnstein.
I don't think "they" care, Cowboy. They got the "juice" now, and you better like it. This admin is filled with power-hungry elitists who actually think that we work for them, instead of vice-versa which is reality. And that is why their responses to these things have been so aloof, so tone-deaf. They don't think we can do anything to stop it.
What I don't understand is how NBC can have an undercover story on the Today Show about teenagers "sniffing" and completely ignore this. Why is their undercover work "important" and this story is a travesty? It's upside down.
I suspect this White House and Congress are a borderline criminal enterprises.
It is so transparent their only desire is more voter buying via wealth transfer, hiring more government workers to salaried union jobs, and addicting substantial parts of our country to government crack (welfare) all so that way a few can live large via the electoral process.
Prosecute Bush? Sure, then go after Obama and his Co-conspirators. My god these individuals are mentally ill lunatics.
Where is it backfiring?
All I see from you is lots of whining and no evidence.
You're right Cowboy…but is that not in the Constitution? That WE THE PEOPLE have the right to wield a club over the head of the government to keep government in it's place?? It's been a long time coming, but I think it's time WE held THEM accountable by any means necessary!
I agree Jordan. This administration is so corrupt from top to bottom, I have no faith that they will investigate "their own". I think the only shot is if some good Democrat senator wake up and join the Republican senators to investigate this mess as well as SEIU and the CZARS for a start.
What Nixon was forced to resign for pales in comparison to the thugs in the White House today.
Please people remember Obama's words,"WE WILL FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGE AMERICA"……..Take heed.
Aside from your condecension, which is cute btw, you offer nothing of substance in your comment. The truth is, there is a clear pattern of lies and deception with the ACORN modus operandi. Tax money being shuffled around, ENRON-esque accounting tricks, voter intimidation (also caught on video, ignored by the AG), and filling out voter cards for illiterate minorities (which is exploitative). The pattern is readily visible to anyone whose head isn't lodged in their keister. Yours seems to be somewhere in the intestinal tract. This movement isn't going anywhere, except after every incumbant tied to these thugs. You probably won't even vote, but will probably troll around here with smug snarkiness. Good day.
Terrific! ACORN must be proesecuted, so should the ACORN head – Obama!
Breitbart has the tapes on ACORN, We the people have the evidences on Obama's ineligibility to POTUS!
It is time to pressure the Republican Congress to investigate Obama's eligility issue! Contact them anyway you can and demand that they expose/remove the usurper who is enabling his criminal gang to destroy America. We have started to bombard rep congress with our demands today. Join us!
did I hear correctly in the Hannity segment– Breitbart says that they are also being prosecuted by the California AG? If that's correct, talk about killing the messenger– instead of going after the REAL bad guys here– ACORN–
I suspect AB is holding out to drop the final F-bomb regarding this whole wacked out administration, with ACORN and SEIU being imploded. The American public reaction will be jaw dropping that has not been seen since Nixon.
I can’t wait….this guy has had this planned out for quite some time. Thank you for everything you are doing. No need to accuse, let the words flow from their own mouths. Awesome.
You guys on the right….sorry, "patriots", love to use the word whining. I'm not quite sure you know what it means though. Looking through my comments, I don't really see a whine. I see pleas to continue doing what your doing. It's okay Rob. You're probably one of the 52% who thinks ACORN stole the election for Obama, which is batsh*t crazy.
"Should anything happen to me, my lawyer is in possession of information that is to be released in full immediately…"
Why do I think Holder's a$$hole is seriously puckering up…?
Looking through your comments I don't see anything. Not one fact, figure, or syllogism. Just the condecension of an infant.
Breitbart, Giles, and O'Keefe are doing a great job. Protect yourselves from the slings and arrows of outraged Obama sycophants. And, please make sure the remaining tapes and the unreleased portions of the released tapes are keep secure. Also, "rtwngr" is correct with the issue of federal or state authorities coming after you three and not the real miscreants ACORN and its fellow travelers.
I really like and admire what you all have been doing. But, somehow I doubt that a Pulitzer will be issued for real investigative reporting anymore.
You love your Barry don’t you AHUGHFAN? What’s in it for you?
It shouldn't be necessary…but when it does become necessary, the club should be employed; aggressively, thoroughly, viciously, and until the government listens and submits, or is replaced…
WE THE PEOPLE are speaking; listen, or be damned…
Are you catching on yet, Barry…?
GIVE 'EM HELL, Dan- great work
And keep up the Good Fight… our side's winning now
http://reaganiterepublicanresistance.blogspot.com
We're with you, Andrew. But be careful, be very careful. Hold the evidence. I hope your statement about surrendering the tapes to Holder was part of a "feint and thrust," not literal. As one blogger said, the evidence will be buried as soon as it's turned over. Hold out until the crucial moment. What a sad, sad state of affairs for our country when the AG has to be threatened this way.
Brilliant! Mr. Breitbart, you, sir, are a genius.
It is an honor to serve with you in defense of our freedoms.
Hooray for Andrew & crew! Nail their asses to the wall. You’re doing the job the msm refuses to do. Run those videos! Expose the thugs for what they are, at all levels – I’m sure this goes all the way to the oval office. Go Andrew! But watch your back, and watch for dead fish in the mail.
WAIT FOR THE ELECTION!
Hannah is wrong about journalism. Real journalism is pushing a microphone in a young girls face and asking her trick questions at a Sarah Palin book signing…right Norah O'Donnell?
I hope they have something that ties all this right up with Obama and Holder. Delicious!

You guys are true Patriotic Heroes!
You all are inspiration for redress and true representation of we the people.
Hit them where it hurts, beat them at their own game.
Send me copies, I'll hide and safeguard them where no one from the government can get their greasy meat hooks on them.
You have a tremendous backing in people who know what is going on regardless of attempts to snuff the truth.
Way to go.
Bravo!!!!
Now that's the Chicago way!
They will find a way to stop those tapes before next year. A court order or net neutrality or something. They need to shut this up. so much for the first amendment.
make lots and lots of copies! and secure them with off site folks. Just to avoid accidents like a fire or a breakin or tragic EMP.
I applaud Breitbart's actions wholeheartedly, but would be very concerned for my physical well-being if I were him.
I hope that Andrew, James and Hannah (and their families) all have firearms and bodyguards … I'd suggest putting all the materials in escrow with several reliable independent friends to be released in the event anything "untoward" happens to any of them.
Fifty to one hundred years from now, Andrew, James, and Hannah are going to be talked about with the same reverence we talk about Madison, Jefferson, Adams, the other Founding Fathers, and Patrick Henry…
Truth spoken to Power; with all the subtlety of a mafiosi siccaro and his spear-carrier…
Hey, its Chicago Politics…the "hit back twice as hard" principle applied against the thugs that usually do the hitting…
One absolutely has to admire Andrew Breitbart's timing…makes Muhammad Ali look like a cow on roller skates…cut the Administration just enough rope to think they can get away with some new agenda, then pop something up on their radar screen just long enough to elicit a collective " HUH?" before impact…
We just might save this Nation yet…thanks to our fighters for Truth, Justice, and the American Way…
(Amazing how the cliche is starting to drain away from those words…)
Andrew, James, and Hannah. THANK YOU for exposing and continuing to expose acorn for what it was and still is. A radical, corrupt, fraudulent organization that has been funded with our tax dollars. A true shame, and they got away with it for years. What is even a BIGGER SHAME is that we have an inept attorney general more concerned with prosecuting our CIA, Bush, Cheney and making decisions that totally baffle all of us. I say flood the market with the tapes, so that when our inept AG rules against their release, there will be TONS of copies that can and will be put on all available web media sites! As the annointed one's mentor Saul Alinsky said in his radical teachings: "THERE ARE MORE OF US THAN THERE ARE OF THEM". We love you Andrew, James, and Hannah. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
I can't believe you just used "Have you seen Twitter?" as your argument that everyone things they're a joke. So a bunch of liberals have come out to bash them as much as they can, and you call it evidence of the loss of momentum…
I'm pretty sure just a couple weeks ago Congress extended the cutoff of funds for ACORN, and the only people calling Breitbart a joke are the libs hoping this gets swept under the rug. Nice try though.
[...] Uh oh! More tapes! Brietbart says more tapes will be released if Holder doesn’t start an investigation of ACORN. [...]
Because Andrew, James and Hannah pose a threat to a very valuable arm of The Party apparatus. The Party will protect itself — if they lose ACORN and things like it they'd be forced to try to win elections legally and they won't.
I'm looking forward to these tapes whenever they are released. They'll be some of the best entertainment between now and the release of the first Hobbit movie. The tapes will have an impact on the election for sure. But we're already planning to clean House (and Senate) next fall.
Breitbart deserve a Congressional medal of honor or something. He's doing a lot to save our country from the socialists who call themselves Democrats.
[...] http://biggovernment.com/2009/11/20/brei…; [...]
You three really put some thought in to how this was going to work – nicely done.
Balls of steel, and going for a grasp on the short & curlies…gotta love it.
I can't help but feel this is almost like a well written TV show – I'm waiting anxiously for the next episode, and am excited for the first season to be available on DvD soon.
The sad part is that the club has to be brandished over their heads. The good part is someone found the club and isn't affraid to wave it around when needed.
Also looking forward to the leftie spin to try to dismiss this again. It's like a new fairy tale every time.
SWEET!
Thank you James, Hannah, and Andrew.
What Breitbart needs to do is warm up his DVD burner and make about 10,000 copies of thoses videos…
Eric Holder is a "Coward." For all the faults the previous administration had, it truly feels like Amaetur Hour with this administration.
Hope Breitbart has multiple copies of those other videos in secure, undisclosed locations. I wouldn't put it past certain organizations with thuggish tendencies to decide not to take any chances with what might be on those videos, and simply try to find a way to destroy them. By whatever means necessary
Andrew better watch out. This regime will go full Chicago on them to shut them up. IRS audits will only be the beginning. Then charges of “invasion of privacy” for recording the tapes. Some Clinton appointee fed judge will cooperate fully in applying heavy legal pressure, backing up a team of DoJ lawyers. Charges under federal hate crimes law will follow. The lefty media will answer the call to demonize these “evil rightwing haters.”
Yes, We Can!
the investigation must include SEIU and their 60,000,000 sopent to get Obama elected….this is crmainal to have SEIU “Workers of the world unite”….writing policy and healthcare in WH inner circle, while taxpayers foot the bill…..SEIU and ACORN are the two headed monster that is trying to bully Congress into redistribution of wealth and socializing America. Look out, if Holder refuses to investigate, then they should be impeached for negligence.
is you last name Marx?
I Agree with "Cowboy Logic" in the 21st century who would have thought the population would have to rise up and demonstrate by teaparties and threaten it's AG to start an investigation. Luckily, the behavior of the press the last few years has hardened us against these outrageous actions.
Speaking of tapes….we should insist on an thorough investiagation and litigations against the black panthers captured on tape "armed" and threatening people outside polls at last year's national elections.
Carl: I think you just coined a term I haven't heard yet: "Go full Chicago"
Kinda like going postal in a political manner. Love it.
Threatening the AG? I hope there are no skeletons in your closet…
But yeah, I don't understand why they don't simply investigate ACORN and get this over with
Fall of 2010 can't come soon enough. Obama and his buddies have accomplished something (besides jack and squat), they've managed to enrage middle Americans like no one else in recent history.
This has nothing to do with any political party. This is all about right vs. wrong, good vs. evil, conservatism vs. liberalism, truth vs. lies, and the rule of law vs. criminal activity. The MSM is so in bed with liberalism that they can not be trusted with anything. Andrew Breitbart is the new face of true journalism. We have Freedom of the Press in the first amendment in the Bill of Rights just for this reason. Our founding fathers new that the government must have it's feet held to the fire in order for the people to be represented. As a TPP (tea party patriot), I believe it will take a consertive effort in order to bring down all of the corruption in Washington.
Follow the money….the obvious reason Holder won't investigate…the money goes right into Obama's pockets.
What a bunch of sick thugs. Can't wait to see them all carted off in hand-cuffs!
Good on you, Brietbart and company.
No quarter for these scumbags and criminals. No quarter for the Democrats. And no quarter for the complicit, lying, Democrat-supporting media outlets who need to be shamed into covering this blemish on their boyfriend in the WH's record.
They'd give you none.
Hey I am trying to call my Senator (Gillibrand) to talk about this with her and the lines are busy all morning.
Will you people get off the phone so I can get through!
I love how AOL and the MSM are crapping over themselves with stories of 2 "misleading" videos that FOX News accidently broadcast. Of course FOX doesn't follow the other news networks and FOX at least retracts and apologizes for their mistakes. But the irony is that here we have damning videos of ACORN corruption and crimes and no one seems at all interested in investigating this except for FOX and the conservative radio talk show hosts. I totally agree with Sean that these 3 "heroes" deserve journalistic awards and recognition for their incredible reporting. The MSM doesn't let facts and the truth get in the way of their agenda. Sad.
Andrew, YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!!!
THANK YOU FOR DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!!
I was thinking the same thing, that guy's got a pair so big and brassy that he needs an 18-wheeler to haul them around and a pallet full of Brasso a day to polish them. Dude!!! Calling out AG Holder on national TV!!! Somebody please perfect cloning technology so we can clone Andrew Breitbart!
Great stuff, Mr Breitbart. Never been so proud to have gone to Tulane.
The liberals lie, cheat and steal to get into power. Why would they care about doing the same thing when they know they have "Barack the magic negro" to write them a pardon?
or a gag order
All I can say is Wow. And I agree.
The Democrats in charge (perhaps not all of them) have deemed themselves above the law. They can skew elections with corporate and union cash paid to the poor to fake the votes they need, and throwing away any stray Republican registrations that come in, and they have the audacity to blatantly cover it up.
Mr. Obama, you took an oath to protect the constitution, not your party. It is time to be presidential, not a candidate. Do the right thing and ask for an independent investigation of ACORN/SEIU corruption in the electorate.
There is a big time bank robbery going on here. The entire campaign was a scam to get people to vote for him. Unfortunately for Obama, the entire populace is on to him, minus a few kool-aid drinking socialists. They didn't need a gun for this stick up.
50% approval for Obama is depressing. Half of the people think he's doing a good job? Are you freakin' kidding me??
For true conservatives, your plan to act as everyone else acts, as opposed to how it needs to be done to be taken seriously goes against the core values of conservatism. If it gets done your way we lose if we win.
Time, and well thought out plan and movement will tell.
Breitbart is a genius. With a plan.
Sadly, McCotter and the rest of the GOP have no power to open investigations. Only ACORN's Democrat co-conspirators can do that.
