The new acting director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives announced a major shake-up of his agency Wednesday and urged Washington insiders to calm down about the latest revelations surrounding a controversial ATF gun operation.
B. Todd Jones said calm is needed as he begins rebuilding the beleaguered agency, including shuffling top personnel. He made his comments as his boss, Attorney General Eric J. Holder Jr., came under fire this week from Republican lawmakers, with one calling for a special counsel to investigate Holders role in the Fast and Furious gun-trafficking operation.

Yes and thank you but they don’t want that coming out.The mere fact they are using this to wiggle out of crimes is so pathetic.They tried it with gunrunner vs. fast and furious in blaming Bush it did not work .
I’ll calm down once Holder, Obama, and many high ups in the DOJ and ATF are held accountable by being immediately fired and losing all their retirement benefits. =.=
you” B.” a MeatheadvFallguy who will plead the 5th too
ping.
This is true, If the real FACTS come out, those media organs who did not pull out and publish/air the TRUTH will have blood on their hands, and their credibility will be shot.
and please remember to mention ICE agent zapata, killed in mejico while being required to be UN armed during his assignment there...all the while, bad guy criminals were being armed and sent his direction...
Sure we wouldn’t get off without getting our hair mussed, but we’d prevail. I don’t think we’d lose more than fifty million people, tops.
GENERAL RIPPER
B is for Brutha.
as in “my people”.
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Sorry but I don’t think so....Seems this administration has decided that stalling will be the way to go?
This reeks of “Media Won’t you please cover another scandal up for us...”.
I’m on MestaMachine’s and Nachum’s ping lists so I get every one of these articles - I spend way too much time reading on FR - but of course can’t remember exactly where I read anything 99% of the time!
MM may know the details; I know for sure I read there were some convictions but not enough to keep the program going.
“Stop complaining, stop grumbling, stop crying!”
Have you heard the audio?
Hussein didn’t put “g”’s on the end of those words because he was talking to Holder’s people.
Big Media added the “g”’s for him.
Clam Down!
B. Todd Jones said calm is needed as he begins rebuilding the beleaguered agency...
The Liberty-raping, fascist BATFE needs to be abolished, not rebuilt. Defund the damn thing NOW!
Always remember that Watergate only became what it did because conservatives who had had enough refused to stick up for him any more. THAT is what we’re hoping to see now. Oh, and when the trickle turns into a stream, all the followers will get on board and it will be an express train to oblivion. We hope.
Yep, not hard to believe there.
Macalester College - the ‘Marxist Harvard’ of MN.
Holder appointed him...our first clue that he is dubious.
Guess the Washington Post of old should have listened to John Mitchell too.
