"to avoid interdicting weapons in hopes of making a larger case against higher-ups in the trafficking organization."

And just how was that supposed to happen? Magic? There has been no credible explanation of how letting these guns cross the border into the hands of Mexican drug lords would result in making a case against higher ups.

The ATF has no jurisdiction in Mexico. They had a policy of *not* letting the Mexican government know about the operation. Where does the magic part that leads to "making a case against higer-ups" kick in?

My question is why hasn’t the MSM picked up this story?

“to avoid interdicting weapons in hopes of making a larger case against higher-ups in the trafficking organization.”

In other words, Gunwalker was supposed to be a case against American firearms manufacturers and owners.

This smells like Bill Ayers to me — anarchy, heavily armed leftists spilling over the border, para-military forces which hate capitalism and hate us.

Also, remember the Longbeach scandal? Bill Clinton administration. Clinton had been sucking up to China like a well trained toady — even dual use nuclear missile tech was traded for campaign cash. [Lorel for example.] Then came the AK-47s to Longbeach. While largely purged from google, I did find an FR post of someone else who recalls it:

“Let’s not forget the thousands of full auto ak’s and grenades shipped by COSCO into the port of Longbeach that were destined for street gangs.” — Ajnin

Will next check FR’s search engine.
