A federal judge on Tuesday ruled President Obama cannot use executive privilege to keep records on the "fast and furious" gun-tracking program from Congress.
The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson requires the administration to release to Congress all records they are withholding that are considered "attorney-client privileged material, attorney work product, private information, law enforcement sensitive material, or foreign policy sensitive material." House Republicans launched the suit after voting to hold then-Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt for refusing to turn over the records.
Operation Fast and Furious was launched by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

A Leftist Facebook ‘friend’ posted a meme recently that said ‘there have been xxxxx deaths in Mexico in the past five years and all of the guns were from the USA’ (paraphrased). I wanted to ask ‘how many were part of the Fast and Furious debacle?’. But Leftists haven’t yet admitted to the illegality of F n F. Nor Obama/Holder’s responsibility for it.

She was probably given the green light to issue the order to release those documents.
It has taken 2 years since the HOR found Holder in contempt to scrub them all.
What Records? We don’t have no Stinking records...

Case will result in being slow walked until Obama is out of office. The administration after him, will drop it.
Either party by the way.

My take also. She was given permission to rule as she did.
