Good evening y’all.
Know your Nautical Terminology
futtock shrouds
Rope, wire, or chain links in the rigging of a traditional square-rigged ship running from the outer edges of a top downwards and inwards to a point on the mast or lower shrouds. They carry the load of the shrouds that rise from the edge of the top, preventing the top from tilting relative to the mast.
It was a point of pride that the topmen would climb up the outside of the futtuck shrouds rather than using the lubber's hole to reach the top. The area between the mast and the topmast was considered a fighting top. During combat Marines would be stationed here in addition to the sail handlers. Their job was to shoot down onto the deck of nearby ships especially targeting the officers as well as killing enemy Marines in their fighting top. It was one of the two French Marines remaining alive in the mizzen top of Redoutable who shot Lord Nelson and was in turn shot by Signals Midshipman John Pollard.

ATF Investigator Smuggled Weapons into Mexico
Excerpt:
A former investigator with the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) is accused of trafficking weapons to Mexico while he was an employee of the bureau in 2017, according to a letter sent to the ATF Director this week by US Senator Charles Grassley.
José Luis Meneses, a Mexican citizen who worked as an investigator for the ATF at the US consulate in Tijuana, BC, Mexico admitted to purchasing firearm parts online as well as at a California gun store and trafficking them to Mexico for the purposes of profit in 2017, according to the letter and a then-agency memo obtained by Reuters. The case has not been reported previously.
The Grassley letter dated Oct. 18, 2023, cites the 2017 ATF memo and information described as “whistleblower disclosures,” accusing the agency of not conducting a full investigation into the matter.
“If these protected disclosures are true and accurate, they illustrate a failure by the ATF to hold its employees accountable for criminal misconduct.”
.....The internal investigation into Meneses began when a firearm parts vendor called the US Consulate in Tijuana to report suspicious purchases, according to Grassley’s letter.
The tip led US officials to interrogate Meneses, who admitted to buying firearm parts in the US, smuggling them into Mexico, and handing them off to his brother, a Mexican police officer, and a former Mexican soldier, according to the ATF memo.
ATF agents from the San Diego office then searched the PO box that Meneses said he used for the purchases, where they found assault-style rifle parts and high-capacity magazines, the memo said.
Meneses used a vehicle with diplomatic plates to avoid being searched at the border while smuggling the firearms, according to the letter. In total, Meneses said he bought enough parts to assemble eight AR-15 rifles, the memo said.
Meneses was placed on administrative leave and then terminated in April 2017, the memo said.
In Grassley’s letter, he accused the agency of treating the allegations of gun smuggling like an “administrative matter” and questioned whether ATF investigated possible links between Meneses or his associates and Mexican cartels.
.....Last week, Grassley sent a a letter to the head of the ATF questioning their stopping of Project Thor which sought to stem the tide of arms trafficking to Mexico last year, and requesting documents related to that operation.

Shades of Fast and Furious. Not surprising given the occupant in DC. ATF protecting their own. The DS is dirty and deep for sure this is another example.
Is there a reason to think they aren't true?
