Most of the MSM continues to aggressively ignore the scandal, or tries to spin it into support for more gun control.

This is certainly convoluted and probably tailored to be just that. It will be more difficult to unsnaggle this as it was Clinton’s Whitewater mess. DOJ and obozo will put up as many roadblocks as they can dream up and hopefully FOR ONCE, Issa and Grassley will stick to their “guns”. HA!

It would be great to see some “comuppance” to that administration and where better than at DOJ (Holder) and the WH??

What if the Pubbies offered to drop any investigations or hearings into this scandal in exchange for 2T in immediate cuts and / or eliminate Obamacare and the EPA? Do you do that deal?

Not among those of us who know what Obama is, i.e. a Marxist who believes that the ends ALWAYS justifies the means. Not even if innocent people have to die. To a Marxist people are just objects to be used and controlled and disposed of when they are used up.

He is ignoring it also.

Really simple....

This current administration is corrupt to the core and is an enemy of freedom.

OF COURSE they are going to assist any other enemies of freedom.

“Our federal law enforcement apparatus became a criminal conspiracy.”

It is one thing to anticipate that some in law enforcement could be corrupted by the river of drug money that flows across our southern border.

I never would have thought that whole federal institutions would devote dozens of personnel to program motivated by ideological corruption that was designed to achieve an end run around legislative deliberations.

But then again, the debacle at Waco was a BATF operation that also involved the FBI and other agencies in what was originally an effort to have a positive impact on Congressional budget hearings.

We don’t have to connect many dots here to see that BATF is an agency with history of having a corrupt ‘corporate culture’ at the highest levels. We are seeing a living example of the self-willed Leviathan State, a dangerous parasite on our finances, our lives and our liberties. The people at the top of the present regime appear to be willing to kill Mexicans (and some Americans too) not for personal gain, but for ideological gain.

But this is what socialists do, that is when they think they can get away with it.

Cornerstone:
“If most of the claims regarding this scandal are substantiated — and developing evidence certainly indicates a high likelihood of that happening — we face a watershed moment in American history.

Every component of federal law enforcement within the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security — and most likely with the knowledge of the Department of State — undertook a massive operation designed to facilitate the flow of thousands of weapons into the hands of some of the most vicious criminal organizations on Earth. These operations likely took place with the full knowledge of cabinet level officials, and possibly the White House. The weapons “walked” were used to gun down innocent men, women, and children, not to mention the brave police officers and soldiers in each nation trying to wage peace.

It demands a criminal investigation and the possible RICO prosecution of dozens of federal law enforcement officers, supervisors, senior management, political appointees, and possibly elected officials.”

The bottom line: the Executive Branch President, State Department Secretary, Justice Department Secretary, FBI, BATFE, DHS and Border Patrol, DEA and ICE are all tangled up in a colossal taxpayer funded drug and gun running effort to coerce legal US licensed arm dealers to sell weapons to obviously illegal foreign buyers, at the behest of the US Government, to export the weapons to drug runners and illegal aliens from Mexico, funded by US tax dollars in their criminal enterprise, which guns and supplies are used to terrorize and kill American service men and women, and civilians, and mexican authorities....

The purpose to this outrage: to make a case to curtail the 2nd amendment of the US Constitution: that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

The US government could not have screwed this up much worse but no doubt there will be more revealed.

The President, Attorney General, Secretary of State, and Secretary of Homeland Security appear to have some explaining to do, before they go to jail for gun running, smuggling, accessory to murder, racketeering, drug violations, federal firearms violations, Mexican law violations, etc. Plus there is that matter of a conspiracy to abridge the constitutional R2KBA of the American People.

This is pretty huge.

Pragmatically, so long as this issue continues to keep/gain ink/bandwidth Sen. Grassley and Rep Issa will keep on “keepin’ on”, IMO. Regardless of how corrupt the players or how vital the issues are unless they remain on the front page they’ll “die in committee”.

Now I have two questions:

Has anyone banged a list of “walked guns” sorted by caliber/make/model against the “hit list” of evil arms declared by the anti-gun orgs ? If we see a strong correspondence, its evidence of the Obama Administration’s “working under the radar” claim.

Has anyone investigated to see if the “walked guns” might have been destinged for Mexican nationals as means of resisting the predations of the cartels ? >PS

Crime Inc knows that the best cover is to pretend to investigate the crime you are committing.

The fact that the president is trying to frame the American people is scary. What is more worrisome is why do they want to take our guns away. We all here know why, (the answer is found in the constitution itself) but most people would never think that there dear leader would mean them any harm. People better wake up.

“they are merely criminally incompetent.”

Nope! They are not incompetent, criminals - Yes. Incompetent no.

PS What they did is also treason.

Wow , I always figured that the gun control angle was the motivation but I never thought they would be stupid enough to document it in writing.

Now I am wondering if they will find evidence of the Obama Administration was a actually coordinating the escalation in violence directly with the drug cartels.

It would not surprise me a bit. Remember, Holder was the advocate for the release of the FMLN terrorists under Clinton. Holders Law firm was also representing Gitmo terrorists and a lot of high level Justice people brought in from Holder's law firm have close ties to terrorists and drug cartels.

The increasingly more plausible motivation: political appointees of the current administration concocted a scheme to destabilize a friendly government to restore the flagging anti-gun movement. That scenario would have seemed paranoid just weeks ago,...

Not to people who have watched the marxists for 45 or so years. This is what they do world wide. Our marxists behave just like DPRK marxists, Cuban marxists, really any marxists world wide. Subvert and conquer. The marxists have demonstrated throughout history they will do anything to take power. Only fools in the news media couldn't see this coming.

It will take a Special Prosecutor to get an honest criminal investigation and to make a RICO case.
