and the same thing at IRS, etc, etc.

So not bad enough they killed so many of our children and adult peers, now this?

¿Why is this not a crime?

[gundog]

Is “current services baseline budgeting” still a thing? Seems like they just rake what ghey want in the age of continuing resolutions.

I won't belabor the point that I think that this is white collar crime and RICO prosecution eligible. PeterPrinciple brought up a good point. We all know that when the Government announces "bad" news that it usually vastly underestimates the disaster it causes. So, with that in mind, is there a lot more to this BATF scandal than they are admitting? I suspect so.

But I wonder also, is this only the BATF that is involved? I suggest that it is possible that other agencies have done similar, or are currently doing so. Maybe the FBI, DOJ, EPA, IRS, and who knows who else is involved? Is what we are seeing with the BATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Fraud) just the tip of the iceberg of a vast vast amount of systemic fraud being committed by federal agencies? With the feds, where there's smoke, there's a catastrophic conflagration.
