ATF GUNRUNNING UPDATE: Friction Grows Between Lawmakers and DOJ Over ‘Project Gunrunner’ Probe.
Also: Lawmakers Step Up Probe of Gun Trafficking Operation.
And: New Project Gunrunner documents peg top DOJ officials. “Three Project Gunrunner documents Rep. Darrell Issa, California Republican and House Oversight Committee chairman, released on Wednesday show high-ranking Justice Department officials were aware of Operation Fast and Furious and that there was a consistent administration policy that allowed American guns to be ‘walked’ into Mexican drug cartels’ possession.” Given all the Administration talking points about American guns going to Mexico, it’s hard not to suspect an ulterior motive here.
