Default Fast and Furious Scandal expanding to FBI and DOJ

Holder appears to be at the center of the conspiracy to create gun violence in order to encourage more gun restrictive laws.

Gunwalker: The ATF’s Kenneth Melson Blows the Whistle on the Justice Department

A blockbuster development in the Operation Fast and Furious scandal.

by Hans A. von Spakovsky | PJM
n a blockbuster development in the Operation Fast & Furious gun-running scandal, Acting ATF Director Kenneth Melson secretly testified before House and Senate investigators on July 4 with his own personal lawyer present, former United States Attorney Richard Cullen, without the knowledge of the ATF or the Department of Justice.
This morning, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa and Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Charles Grassley released a copy of a letter they sent to Attorney General Eric Holder on July 5 about Melson’s testimony. Melson’s revelations raise even more serious issues not only about the operation itself, but about apparent attempts by the Justice Department to mislead Congress on the details of the operation.
Contrary to the Justice Department’s denials, according to Melson, ATF agents specifically witnessed transfers of weapons from straw purchasers to third parties without taking any further action. Melson claimed that it was not until the public disclosure of the operation that he personally reviewed the “hundreds of documents” related to the case. He said he became “sick to his stomach” when he learned the full story. Even more shocking is that some of the “gun trafficking ‘higher-ups’ that the ATF sought to identify were already known to other agencies and may even have been paid as informants” by agencies such as the FBI and the DEA.
Think on that for a few moments. In what way is this not news?
How is this NOT Perjury and Obstruction of Justice by a sitting Attorney General of the United States?
One must wonder what the President knew, and when he knew it, as well.
