Coming intrigue, a ploy to play head-games with the president of the United States or just too much wine?
Former U.S. attorney general Eric Holder tweeted a cryptic message to career officials at the Department of Justice and the FBI in the dead of night — 3:17 a.m. to be exact.
Holder, the first sitting Cabinet official EVER held in contempt by Congress, instructed the employees at the agencies to “be prepared, be strong.”
“To the career men & women at DOJ/FBI: your actions and integrity will be unfairly questioned. Be prepared, be strong. Duty. Honor. Country,” tweeted the man known to put race before these attributes.

It’s not clear what Holder is referring to and he offered no follow-up tweets to shed light on his mysterious offering.
…all of which was more than enough to get the conspiracy juices flowing on social media.
In what may be the most remarkable of all reactions, Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton wrote: “Obama’s first corrupt AG encourages continued Deep State attacks on @realDonaldTrump.”

Here’s a sampling of other responses from Twitter:
The last time Holder tweeted something like this was the day Comey was fired. Many in D.C. are speculating that something big is on its way. https://t.co/OXoPqKTjZ3

Something big is coming. A 3am tweet from Eric Holder? Yeah, something’s coming.
