Massive Government Corruption; Obama Administration; DOJ Department of Justice Eric Holder, Susan Rice, Hillary Rodham Clinton, John Kerry, In Operation Fast and Furious, multiple federal agencies
worked together as part of an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force
(OCDETF). The stated purpose of the operation was to track guns that were being
trafficked into Mexico, arrest the bad guys, and confiscate the guns. In
reality, as has been clearly demonstrated, the actual purpose was to allow the
guns to "walk" into Mexico and make their way into the hands of drug
cartels after the ATF – an arm of the Justice Department – mandated U.S. gun
store owners sell the guns to bad guys.
In 2011, ATF Special Agent in Charge (SAC) William Newell
was grilled by House Oversight Committee member, Rep. Patrick Meehan (R-PA)
about the operation being an OCDETF case. Newell trapped himself in one of the
most compelling moments of Fast and Furious hearings, beginning at the 3:00
mark:
The guns would be picked up at crime scenes and American gun
store owners would be blamed in a blood libel (sound familiar?). The cover of
that operation was blown after the death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. An
ATF whistle blower named John Dodson came forward and the scandal was exposed.
