Formal Investiture Ceremony Held For Attorney General Loretta Lynch

Loretta Lynch was finally formally sworn in as attorney general Wednesday, after what has seemed like an eternity. Lynch was sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, on a bible once owned by Frederick Douglass.

Lynch makes history as the first African-American woman and the second woman to be confirmed for the position. She has also made history in the digital world as the first sitting U.S. attorney general to use Twitter!

Boom!

And she already has more than 12,000 followers.

I’d love to be a fly on the wall in her house. I imagine that she’s somewhere dipping it low to Cece Peniston’s “Finally,” in celebration. But in this case, “Mr. Right” would be getting that bomb job.
