On this Thursday, May 8 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex covers unprecedented news coming out of Washington, D.C. The U.S. House of Representatives voted to hold former IRS official Lois Lerner in contempt of Congress for refusing to testify about the agency's harassment of Tea Party groups. Maryland's Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings claimed that holding Lerner in contempt amounts to "McCarthyism," despite the fact that 10% of donors to Tea Party groups were audited, a figure much higher than the audit rate for average Americans. Alex also covers new developments in political suppression and geopolitics. Constitutional lawyer and author Bruce Fein joins the show to discuss the FEC chairman's warning that government officials want to regulate the alternative media. Also joining the broadcast is ex-CIA officer and journalist Peter Van Buren to break down the current standoff between world powers that is expanding beyond Ukraine.
