BREAKING NEWS on Fast and Furious: Slide Show Indicates Holder May Have Known in March 2010
Big Government ^ | 10/5/2011 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 10/05/2011 11:04:57 AM PDT by toma29

Folks, I just checked my email inbox and found an ATF slide presentation on the Fast and Furious operation that journalist Paul Thacker somehow got his hands on.

The most important thing about it – It appears to have been compiled by the ATF for use in briefing the DOJ on Fast and Furious in March 2010.

Here’s the opening slide:


Notice that the fourth item on the agenda of the first slide is listed as: “Phoenix Case – Update on a significant firearms trafficking case”

It’s important to note that Acting Deputy Attorney General at the time the briefing occurred was Gary G. Grindler, who is now Eric Holder’s Chief of Staff.

Let me ask you a serious question: If Grindler knew about Fast and Furious in March 2010, do you think there’s any way Holder didn’t also know?

I would say the noose is getting tighter around Holder’s neck, but someone might say that is racist.

Therefore, I will just say that Eric Holder’s chickens are coming home to roost!

“Is he willing to take a figurative bullet for his boss?”

Or his boss’s boss?

Acting Deputy Attorney Gary Grindler was at the White House a little over two months after he knew about Fast and Furious:

They start talking murder charges and people will be talking all over the place. Thousands of innocents were killed with those guns.

A spectre is haunting America - the spectre of Barack Obama and Eric Holder.

Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona told The Daily Caller on Wednesday that Obama administration officials responsible for Operation Fast and Furious might be accessories to murder.

“We’re talking about consequences of criminal activity, where we actually allowed guns to walk into the hands of criminals, where our livelihoods are at risk,” Gosar said in a phone interview. “When you facilitate that and a murder or a felony occurs, you’re called an accessory. That means that there’s criminal activity.”

Gosar said he’s confident the Congressional investigation into Operation Fast and Furious will eventually include either the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security, or both.

“I’ve said all along, you’re dealing with a foreign country, you’re talking about an international border — that’s the Secretary of State and of Homeland Security,” Gosar said. “If you weren’t briefing them, it’s even worse that we had vigilantes from DOJ going unchecked and we did not tell our folks in Mexico about this.”

“This should have been a Cabinet [issue], and I keep saying it all along,” Gosar continued. “He [Holder] points to Homeland Security Secretary [Janet] Napolitano in this and I would have no doubts — I’m a common sense person — that this should have also involved the secretary of state, which means everybody knew — and we’re starting to see that in the document dump from the White House.”

As new documents showing how many more senior political officials in the Obama administration were aware of Fast and Furious continue to surface, Gosar said it’s becoming clearer that senior officials in the Obama administration are responsible for the program. The latest documents to surface indicate that Attorney General Eric Holder was briefed on Operation Fast and Furious at least two times in 2010, despite Holder’s May 3 testimony that he had only learned of the gun walking operation a few weeks before his Congressional appearance.

Absolutely. Is Holder willing to go to jail, or be extradited to Mexico for standing trial there, for Obama?

I doubt it. This is going to be huge, and it’s the beginning of the end of this worthless Administration.

Brighter days are ahead, folks!

They don’t execute them in Mexico - they put them in a dark hole for the rest of their life.

For a price, the relatives of their victims are allowed to visit them in jail ............................ FRegards
