Vince Cefalu, the ATF agent who blew the whistle on Fast and Furious, has been fired. He is being interviewed on Fox now. This comes after Rep. Issa warned the ATF not to fire him.
Lawless bunch of thugs.
“It” is coming, folks.
I guess now we will see if Issa is just running a dog and pony show.
bttt
Damn, this move just might force the hands of the elite media to cover the story.
Amazing. Not surprising. Amazing.
Anybody know the current state of the whistleblower laws and if this guy would have a case? I assume he would, but I don’t want to assume.
“Damn, this move just might force the hands of the elite media to cover the story.”
It’s making it’s way out. I talked to some friends who are in the squishy middle about it over the weekend. However, if these guys are any example, the blame stops at the head of the ATF. The guys I talked to agreed that Holder may have known, and should be reprimanded, (not fired).
No one agreed with me that Obama has his fingerprints all over this.
maybe the illegals will be the ones in the Civilian Security Force or whatever it was that ZERO named his dream cop team.
Well if any good will come of this hopefully he will dump all the ATF dirty laundry on the media that he was afraid to do as an employee. The ATF may have just shot themselves in the foot by firing him.
Heads up.
Nope.
If the State Run Media had actual videotape of multiple ATF chiefs first having a meeting in which they orchestrated the genocide of 50% of the populace, and finished the meeting by having blood orgies on a Satanic Altar while killing infants by chewing out their throats, the State Run Media would proclaim: "Newsworthy? PSHAW! Who DOESN'T do this?"
Even if he does have obvious involvement in this -
what do you think will actually happen?
Whistleblower laws are prosecuted by the Justice Department.
Oops.
I guess he's just whistleblowing past the graveyard.
Defund and disband the ATF! Have they ever done anything positive? There are other law enforcement agencies who could do their work. They have always seemed thugish to me.
Remember "That's old news!"?
FUBO!
Damn, I was hoping he had civil recourse thru the courts under the law. I doubt he’s one of Holder’s people so it won’t get prosecuted. Issa and Grassley though might be able to make some hay with it.
