New Fast & Furious documents show Obama administration efforts to mislead Congress

It’s hard to believe, but five years after Fast and Furious, Congress is still in a pitched battle with the Obama administration over subpoenaed documents. What does the latest production of material under a federal judge’s order reveal? Justice Department emails formerly withheld under the President’s assertion of executive privilege containing quotes like these:

•“We would suggest that you pull the sentence that notes how many weapons we’ve recovered. It squares poorly with how many we haven’t.” •“I think people will accuse us of playing with semantics when we say that you did not authorize Fast and Furious, but they find out that CRM [DOJ’s Criminal Division] did authorize wiretaps.”

•DOJ Criminal Division Office of International Affairs Director Molly Warlow advised that the Inspector General’s review “shouldn’t have any interplay at all [with the Mexican government’s investigation], unless we wanted to (or needed to) invoke that as reason (even if disingenuously) to shelve the Mexican inquiry. I can see nothing but mischief (and headaches for us) in the mexicans pursuing this, so I would like to see if there is a way we can turn it off, and the sooner the better.”

A whole lot of nothing.

Let's not forget F&F was coordinated w/congressional rats to blame gun dealers for the death of Americans and Mexicans.

I recall the likes of Boxer, Feinstein, Schumer making public statements before the stuff hit the fan, calling for draconian restrictions on gun ownership.

Like the ATF’s plans at Waco, F&F accepted the deaths of hundreds as a just cost for achieving their evil social justice goals.

McConnell and Boehner and McCain got their cut.
The payoff was complete.
So the GOP went after conservatives
through the IRS.

Exactly. Their goal was to get ALL semi autos either banned or listed under the NFA of 1934.

Specifically, they were going for an AWB2 that would ban ANYTHING that resembled an AR-15/M16 and AK series. They also wanted to demonize and ban the FN5.7/PS90, Barrett .50s and any slide-fire type device.
