    Middlefinger-
    I am not at liberty to divulge all of the conversations and e-mails between me and the United States Congress, as this investigation goes on. I was, for 16 months, an expert advisor regarding the ITAR to Congress. Bottom line, and I'm quoting "do you really think a Democratic administration is going to prefer charges against Hillary Clinton?". If you were to see all of the ass kissing and cover your ass memorandums, you would puke.

    My interest in putting Holder, Obama, and Clinton in jail has not waned. I fear this is just more horseshit from Teflon Hillary.

    Justification for New Gun Control Regulations

    ATF’s internal Public Affairs Talking Points show the agency was using Fast and Furious to help justify new gun control regulations–without telling the public that ATF was actually facilitating the delivery of weapons to Mexican drug cartels.
    The talking points (p. 15) state:
    “These cases demonstrate the ongoing trafficking of firearms by Mexican DTO’s and other associated groups operating in Arizona and the need for reporting of multiple sales for certain types of rifles in order to ferret out those intent on providing firearms to these criminal groups.”

    Gunwalking Tactics

    While the Department of Justice was still insisting the gunwalking was a renegade operation conducted by rogue agents in Phoenix, the documents make clear ATF headquarters in Washington D.C. knew that weapons were being allowed to flow to Mexican drug cartels.
    For example, Fast and Furious began in October 2009. Washington D.C. talking points recount (p. 17) that:

    “From October 2009 through October 2010, this organization, through the use of numerous straw buyers, purchased approximately 1.25 million dollars in firearms from FFLs [Federal Firearms License's] in the Phoenix area and trafficked the firearms into Mexico and other locations within the United States.”

    Another example is an October 12, 2010 funding request to ATF headquarters in Washington D.C. (p. 40) from Phoenix Special Agent in Charge Bill Newell. It stated, in present tense (making clear that ATF was aware, in real time, that the weapons were being transported by ATF suspects to cartels on a continuing basis):

    “The firearms are then being trafficked into Mexico using non-factory compartments in various vehicles through various Ports of Entry (POE’s) in Arizona and Texas. Since the ATF case was initiated, agents have identified approximately twenty-seven straw purchasers who have purchased a large amount of AK-47 style rifles and pistols from various FFLs in the Phoenix Metropolitan area and Prescott, Arizona, since September 2009.”


    Mexico charges 7 in Fast and Furious weapons trafficking sting

    Forty-two weapons were recovered by the Mexican military in Naco, Sonora state, Mexico, November 20, 2009. The weapons were investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Operation Fast and Furious. On Sunday, Mexican authorities said it has issued arrest warrants for seven people in connection to the operation.

    Jan. 10 (UPI) -- A Mexican judge has charged seven people for their involvement in the Operation Fast and Furious weapons scandal, the country's attorney general's office said.

    Fast and Furious was a U.S. sting operation that began in 2009 involving some 2,000 illegally trafficked firearms from the United States to Mexico. According to the U.S. Congressional Research Service, many of these guns were trafficked to gunrunners and other criminals before U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents could arrest them and seize the contraband. Some of the weapons have since been used in violent crimes.

    Mexico's attorney general's office said Sunday in a statement that arrest warrants for weapons trafficking were issued for former drug kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, Mexico's former secretary of public security Genaro Garcia Luna and former high-ranking Mexican law enforcement official Luis Cardenas Palomino, among others who were not named.

    "In Mexico and in accordance with its own investigation, and with data acquired in the corresponding preliminary investigations, it was established that these weapons were not only illegally introduced into the country, but have also been used in various criminal acts, which have already been investigated and prosecuted in Mexico," the office said.

    All of the suspects currently reside in prisons either in the United States or Mexico, the office said, such as El Chapo, the former head of the Sinaloa drug cartel, who is serving a life sentence at a Colorado Supermax prison.

    Luna was arrested in Dallas in December of 2019 and is faces charges of continuing criminal enterprise, which comes with a mandatory sentence of 20 years to life imprisonment.

    And Palomino, who worked under Luna, has also been charged with drug trafficking by the U.S. Justice Department, and was arrested by Mexican authorities in July.

    Mexico's attorney general's office said Sunday that there are two more arrest warrants issued by Mexican judges for Luna, "which have motivated the request for extradition to Mexican territory of that individual."
