Just a couple of days ago, I reported on two congressmen who were demanding that the Department of Homeland Security explain their solicitations of 1.6 billion bullets for purchase. Congressman Leonard Lance (R-NJ) and Representative Timothy Huelscamp (R-KS) both want answers to why DHS needs to be purchasing that much ammunition, seeing that they are a domestic agency. Congressman Doug LaMalfa (R-CA) along with 14 other House representatives have written a letter to DHS wanting to know what the Federal agency is buying so many rounds of ammunition and whether or not they are doing it deliberately to restrict the supply to the American people.
That’s right friends. With the main stream wanting to poo poo this story, it is finally making its way to House Representatives and there are finally voices calling for accountability.
“The extraordinary level of ammunition purchases made by Homeland Security seems to have, in states such as my own, created an extreme shortage of ammunition to the point where many gun owners are unable to purchase any,” LaMalfa wrote in the letter.
LaMalfa pointed out that there are spending cuts, which I’ve pointed out are not any real cuts, across the board, so he wants to know why nearly 2 billion rounds of ammunition, enough for a 24 year war, were being solicited by DHS. “In light of these developments, the lack of transparency and questions that have been raised pertaining to these purchases,” Representative LaMalfa asked the following of DHS:

What is this FEMA corps? I’ve seen the name but no details.
These arms are probably being shipped to the ME.
This is not ammo that the ME uses. This is intended for Americans.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
They are hidden within the DHS/ICE, but they are huge. They have offices in most cities and in 50 other nations. The SRT in this meme is their mailed fist. The new report about F&F leaked to the LATimes for the first time (that I've seen) named the HSI as a player in that deadly scandal.
Government leaders know what all of us have been saying for the last couple years: The economy is going to seriously tank.
DHS is preparing to put down future riots with extreme prejudice that will occur when the EBT cards can no longer purchase anything.
For the most part, it won’t be we conservatives rioting but rather one of the Democrat base voters : Urban Blacks.
I will not be a bit surprised to see an Obama led government violently put down a black riot and then blame the GOP.
“Where’s the stinking Republican leadership, Boehner and McConnell, on this?”
Boehner just said he trusts Obama. No reason for him this admin is up to no good.
40 S & W is the Federal cartridge. Ingenious of them to adopt a caliber that most shooters do not use, YET
Another explanation.
They’re purchasing for one primary reason: to prevent ammo from being available to the public. Brass is not even available.
Yup, the worthless bastard sure did say that.
I thought DHS was Bush’s baby.
I’ve been thinking the same thing. When the SHTF keep a low profile and let the storm troopers and urban ferals go at each other. It will be a good time to observe and take notes.

After reading the FEMA Corps brochure, the thing that popped into my mind was Olsen Johnson's comment about Gabby Johnson: "Now who can argue with that? I think we're all in debt to Gabby Johnson for stating what needed to be said. Not only was it authentic frontier gibberish, it expressed the courage little seen in this day and age."
That is correct and why FOX has not covered this or even Rush is a curious thing. And when we mention anything about this to the limited information voters, we are pooed pooed and told we are alarmists.
DHS: “Bullets? We don’t got no steenkin’ bullets.”
