Sen Grassley : New Letter to Holder Today
Grassley.senate.gov ^

Posted on 07/03/2012 2:15:35 PM PDT by sunmars

Some who spoke with my office claim they were “alarmed” by the substance of the memorandum and it caused such a stir that ATF planned to put a panel together to address the allegations but someone within DOJ suppressed the idea.

The possibility that DOJ was aware of this memorandum on February 3, 2011, and still sent the erroneous letter to Congress on February 4, 2011, raises more questions about DOJ’s claim that faulty information from Department components inadvertently led to the false letter. This was direct, documented information from street level agents in a far better position to know the facts than the senior supervisory personnel whom DOJ claims to have relied upon for information about the allegations. Discovering how high up the chain of command inside the Justice Department the memorandum was reviewed has not been easy. The Department has not made available certain individuals who could corroborate what my office has been told.

Grassley is going right after the coverup, who in the DOJ decided to coverup an ATF panel investigation and shut it down. This is real damning interesting stuff.

200+ Mexicans dead, 2 dead US cops, Federale helicopter shot-down, casino burned with dead people stacked up in the bathroom for fresh air, grenades, POTUS cover-up....

When I was a boy I never imagined we’d get HERE.

It’s like a movie.

BIGGEST SCANDAL IN US HISTORY.

More-so than that contrived outrage over the cover-up of the break-in to some doomed campaign office some 40 years ago. The Media can't provide enough pats on their own backs for engineering that coup, but when it comes to covering the case of government (Dem Government) abetted murder, and that cover-up -- nothing but crickets...

They are not going to let up on this sleeze bag. They will ultimately get a court order...and then these bozos will start destroying evidence if they haven’t been involved in it already in a major way.

But its going to come out. There are patriots within Justice who are leaking what is happening and blowing the whistle.

Thank God for them and God bless and protect them. Save for them, we would not have known about any of this until it blew up on our own streets.

I am willing to bet, that some of the things that have occurred over the last year, if we knew everything, right here in America, will lead back to the same operation. IOW, they probably walked guns to criminals on this side of hte border too.

And after the angry letter with ALL CAPS, they’ll show how realllly angry they are by sending over a pound of chocolates. But none with the cream centers.

They’re reallllly angry after all.

The three paragraphs before the last paragraph of the SA’s memo documenting his contact with Grassley’s group is ‘damning’ for sure.

Oh, I’m sure they have been destroying evidence,
their problem then becomes what to do when there is
proof of evidence that no longer exists.

Remember it was the missing 18 minutes of tape
that brought down Nixon.

This is not going away, nor should it, there are
loose ends here that need unraveling, once some of
them start to go to jail tongues will wag.

There was an article this morning that said one of the agents involved in starting F&F did the same thing with organized crime in Minnesota's Twin Cities earlier. Lemme go find the link...

BIGGEST SCANDAL IN US HISTORY.

Until we see what progresses after the elections we won't know the determination of Grassley and gang.

So far with political history as a gauge, NOTHING will come of Fast and Furious.

What's this crap about pretending that the "street level" had better information when it is obvious that F&F originated at the top level?

Exactly. With email, there is no way to know for certain you have completely destroyed it.

I'm not entirely sure about their patriotism, but would be very surprised if some of them aren't FBI agents who've had it up to here and beyond with Holder and his racist minions.

Hoover made it his business to cast his agency as the country's and indeed, the world's premier law enforcement agency. At many points and in many ways, the agency's reputation mattered more to him and many, many agents than its actual record of crime fighting. The FBI has been less obsessed with its reputation of recent years, but I'd be extremely surprised if highly placed individuals within it aren't infuriated by the damage being done to its lingering reputation.

I'm sure when history writes the truth about the Fast & Furious conspiracy, the FBI, DEA, State Department, and others will prove to have been no less deeply involved in massive, systematic felonious activity than the BATFE. I won't be at all surprised if part of the conspiracy will be shown to have included laundering money from Mexican narcotics cartels for President Food Stamps' campaign and Holder's personal enrichment. I have a hunch FBI uppermost managers are exposing damning secrets in the hope Holder and BATFE will end up taking the heat and their agency will blithely skate away from the damage.
