Earl Anthony ‘Tony’ Wayne said Wednesday that if he is confirmed to be the next U.S. ambassador to Mexico, he will do everything possible to prevent the reoccurrence of covert operations such as “Fast and Furious".
In response to questions:
“There has been criticism over the level of violence, but I have not heard of an alternative strategy that would allow us to keep moving forward,”
