Issa, Grassley release details about Fast and Furious whistleblower retaliation, cover-up

House oversight committee chairman Rep. Darrell Issa and Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley are asking the Department of Justice’s internal investigator to hold accountable anyone who retaliated against or threatened to retaliate against Operation Fast and Furious whistleblowers.

In a Friday letter to the DOJ’s Inspector General Michael Horowitz, Grassley and Issa said they’re now concerned retaliation is much more likely following Thursday’s votes to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in criminal and civil contempt of Congress.

“We just learned that ATF senior management placed two of the main whistleblowers who have testified before Congress about Fast and Furious under the supervision of someone who vowed to retaliate against them,” they wrote before describing how senior political figures have made dangerous threats before.

Grassley and Issa said that in early 2011, right around the time Grassley first made public the whistleblowers’ allegations about Fast and Furious, Scot Thomasson – then the chief of the ATF’s Public Affairs Division – said, according to an eyewitness account: “We need to get whatever dirt we can on these guys [the whistleblowers] and take them down.”

Let’s end the myth that the Clintons were all-powerful, corrupt, yes, but not all powerful.

Burton wasn’t an angel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Burton#Controversies

Livingston actually had an affair: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Livingston#Resignation

Did the Clintons mind control both of them?

Obama is vulnerable and if we’re united, he’ll be defeated.

Who suggested that Burton wasn't an "angel" or that Livingston, who "had an affair" wasn't true?

What I am saying that these things only became an issue after the House voted to impeach the serial woman abuser, Bill Clinto. And only then with the aid of the FBI files, all 1100 of them. They were gone over by Clinton's "Craig Livingston," voyeur in the White House.
