Email correspondence and handwritten notes obtained today by Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars and this correspondent provide details on information and strategy being shared between top level officials of the Department of Justice and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, including between Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer and then-ATF Acting Director Kenneth Melson.
A total of seven documents are presented herein, including:
* A Feb. 4, 2011 letter from Assistant U.S. Attorney Ronald Weich denying the walking of guns, itself the subject of a Feb. 8 Gun Rights Examiner column.
* Email correspondence between Breuer and Melson.
* The assignment of Gang Unit Prosecutor Joe Cooley to Operation Fast and Furious at the time when walked guns from Operation Wide Receiver were being reported by a fellow prosecutor.
* Cooley's handwritten notes.
* Notes from Deputy Attorney General Gary Grindler--including about quantities of guns bought by straw purchasers and dollars spent.
* False assurances to Deputy Assistant Attorney General Jason Weinstein by Gang Unit Chief Kevin Carwile that ATF did not allow guns to walk but instead learned of that "after the FFL began cooperating."
* Weinstein advising Breuer that guns walked, guns were lost, and no "upstream conspirators" were caught--"only straws."

Gunwalker ping.
Some people in the DOJ / FBI /ATF / DHS / are on the payroll of the cartels.
Think about it!
It’s too bad there’s not some Law Enforcement you could trust to investigate the bank accounts of these “public servants” at DOJ/FBI/ATF/DHS.
American government employees at the management levels were being paid to run guns to Mexican drug cartels, using a deliberately flawed sting plan as an excuse if questioned.
There can be no other explaination.
WOW! Very interesting. Thanks to David Codrea for his OUTSTANDING work.
Some people in the DOJ / FBI /ATF / DHS / are on the payroll of the cartels.
And politicians get cuts via banks laundering cartel money. Our government is a subsidiary of drug cartels. And the for show WOD keeps the price up.
