Justice Dept. turns over more than 64,000 pages related to Fast and Furious


Posted: Nov 5, 2014

This caught my eye last night, but there was too much good stuff going on to post this. To me, the most telling sentence is:

"In total, 64,280 pages arrived on Capitol Hill — all material that had been withheld from Congress by President Obama, who used executive privilege to keep the information from lawmakers."

Now that the obstructionist Democrats are no longer in power in the Senate, maybe we can get some closure to all these scandals and hold people accountable for this, for Benghazi and for every other scandal generated by this dishonest administration.

The missing info is probably in all those "privileged" emails to Holder's wife, the doctor.

Fast And Furious Report:Sep 19, 2012
How can a report be neutral if the IG works for the DOJ? They state the reason, but we will just have to wait until others read the 500-page report and report the details. I downloaded the report but won't have time to dig into it today. There is no evidence that Attorney General Eric Holder and high-ranking officials at the Justice Department knew that guns were allowed to “walk” during an ATF operation known as Fast and Furious, according to a report released on Wednesda ...

Eric Holder/fast And FuriousOct 04, 2011
Documents obtained by CBS News prove that Holder had been receiving regular briefings on the botched sting operation as early as July, 2010. This revelation runs directly counter to testimony that Holder gave before a Congressional committee in which he claimed that he had no knowledge of the scandal before the press broke it.  Seems to me like Eric Holder may have bitten off more than he can chew on this one.  Curious to see how this plays out. ...

Media Matters In Cahoots With DOJ Over Fast And FuriousSep 19, 2012
The Daily Caller obtained multiple emails sent in September and November of 2010 showing Holder's Justice Department communications staff in cahoots with Soros funded left-wing reporters at Media Matters.

In a stunning Friday (isn't it always?) revelation, we found out that yet another key figure from Hillary Clinton's "rat pack" -- her former chief-of-staff Cheryl Mills - was given immunity in the email server investigation. As Ed Morrissey points out, that makes "at least five" -- who knows how many there really are -- who have received this treatment. So far that's techies Bryan Pagliano and Paul Combetta (more of him in a moment), John Bentel of the Office of Information Re ...

Judge Seeks Middle Ground In Fast And Furious LawsuitJul 08, 2014
5/5/14: A federal judge said Thursday she’s inclined to split the difference between Congress and the White House in a lawsuit stemming from President Barack Obama’s decision to shield some Justice Department records from a House probe into the flawed gunrunning investigation known as Operation Fast and Furious. Last year, the Obama administration asked Jackson to throw out the lawsuit, arguing that the dispute was not an appropriate one to be resolved by the courts. She ruled to t ...

So Cute...watching The Justice Dept.Oversight HearingMay 15, 2013
Rep. Mel Watts is babysitting. He came into the hearing with his grandson, had him sitting on his lap. Holder stated he thought kids were only seen at confirmation hearings whereas everyone laughed.  After the 2nd question, the little guy started getting antsy, so he handed him off to someone out of camera range at which point, the little guy started to complain, so Rep. Watts had to take him back. (He got another laugh over that.) The little guy settled down then and Rep. Watts could fin ...

Justice Dept Gets Attacked For Trying To Protect Asian AmericansAug 03, 2017
The Justice Department was attacked as racist due to a false New York Times story claiming the DOJ was working to protect white students from discrimination.

Justice Dept. Is Suing S&P - Retaliation For Downgrading Our Credit Rating?Feb 05, 2013

The article is very long.   Was S&P supposed to use a crystal ball?  I think this is a sham, just like some of the other suits brought by this agency. Then there's the suits the DOJ DIDN'T bring against companies and/or people that they did have enough proof for but decided not to folow up on. WASHINGTON — The ...

ATF Speaks Out On "Fast And Furious"Jun 27, 2012
An investigation by Fortune magazine reveals that the ATF never intentionally allowed the “Fast and Furious” guns to fall in the hands of a Mexican cartel, and it questions the credibility of the original whistleblower. “Nobody disputes that suspected straw purchasers under surveillance by the ATF repeatedly bought guns that eventually fell into criminal hands.
