I know that a lot of conservatives think that they did it to push gun control but I’m thinking it is all about drug money and I think it goes all the way to the WH.
I have a feeling they are arming somebody up, and the dope dealers are just getting a percentage for bringing the guns into Mexico.
Yeah, the simplest explanation is that there are a bunch winkin’ and noddin’ bureaucrats making $$$ off this.
I know this administration is highly ideological and anti-2nd Amendment, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t utterly incompetent (for which there is also plentiful evidence).
It’s maybe not fair to him, but I do have some doubts (I could be totally wrong) about Mr. Dodson. It is possible that he was profiting and so were others and they are worried he’ll spill all the beans.

When there is biliions and billions of $ floating around and offered, I have not the slightest doubt there will be many takers.
This (F&F) was to put the sort of firearms that Americans can buy in the hands of some of the most ruthless people on the planet to advance gun control.
Heavier weapons are to keep the cartel's terrorist streak going, and probably will be used to start the coming civil war/conflict/strife/unrest in America to keep Obama in office. (Martial Law, suspended elections--some Dems are already pushing that meme.)
The race is on, can he be forced out before his street goons are ready to take on America? We'll see.

Is money being kicked up the ladder?
Almost certainly, whether it has consistently gone to the top or not. What reason for the Gorelick Memo, other than to obfusticate attempts to interdict shipments by not allowing LEOs to compare notes?
That AlQaida cashed in on that opportunity was incidental, imho, to the other cash that was allowed to flow becasue of it.
