Gohmert: Holder enabled Boston Marathon bombings

However, of all the issues on which he's battled with Holder, Gohmert said one stands out from all the others.

"One that is very troubling to me is his lack of investigation and enforcement of the laws of the land as it pertains to radical Islam," he said, asserting, among other things, that the April 2013 Boston Marathon bombing could and should have been prevented.

"The FBI under his watch got a heads-up from Russia that (bomber Tamerlan) Tsarnaev had been radicalized. As best I can tell, they didn't do anything but talk to Tsarnaev and talk to his mom and said, 'Well, they say he's not radical so we're OK.' If Holder's department had done a proper job, the Boston bombings would not have had to have occurred," said Gohmert.

While his criticism of Holder on the issue of radical Islam started with the Boston Marathon bombings, it certainly doesn't end there.

"Rather than investigate (radical Islam), they partnered with them. They had community outreach programs with them. They still have those programs. They have been responsive to CAIR's [Council on American-Islamic Relations] and ISNA's [Islamic Society of North America] demands. Federal courts have found that those two organizations are fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood and radical Islam," he said.

"[Holder]'s been helping to lead the charge to support and be sensitive to what these supporters of radical Islam want him to do," Gohmert said. "I think that is going to reap benefits for radical Islam for the future, until we have a president that's serious about going after them and not just bombing some empty buildings when nobody's there."
