BREAKING: DOJ Turns Over 64,000 Fast and Furious Documents Held Under Obama's Executive Privilege Townhall ^ \| 11-04-2014 \| Katie Pavlich These documents being turned over is long awaited confirmation from both DOJ and the White House that officials withheld 64,280 that do not fall under President Obama's executive privilege claims. "The President and the Attorney General attempted to extend the scope of the Executive Privilege well beyond its historical boundaries to avoid disclosing documents that embarrass or otherwise implicate senior Obama Administration officials," an Oversight Committee release states. "In effect, last night’s production is an admission that the Justice Department never had legitimate grounds to withhold these documents in the first place. Approximately two-thirds of the universe of documents that the Justice Department withheld from Congress has now been shown to be well outside the scope of Executive Privilege.

BREAKING: “Fast & Furious” Just Got Worse… Eric Holder Wasn’t Just Dealing Guns conservativetribune.com <More Surprise Here> According to a Justice Department watchdog group, it appears that the “ Operation Fast and Furious” fiasco might have a part 2. The group says that Federal agents and prosecutors made a ridiculous amount of errors while investigating a U.S. citizen who was smuggling military surplus grenade components into Mexico for conversion into real grenades that cartels could use. (H/T FoxNews) The highly critical report stated that the ATF “did not adequately consider the risk to public safety in the United States and Mexico created by the subjects’ illegal activities.” Sound familiar? That’s exactly what happened during the extremely controversial “ Operation Fast and Furious” campaign, an ATF gun-running operation that ended up an epic failure, and was responsible for putting weapons into the hands of the bad guys, which were used to kill at least one border patrol agent, Brian Terry, in 2010. The weapons from the botched operation often turn up at crime scenes in Mexico and the United States. As the ATF investigated Jean Baptiste Kingery, the man suspected of running grenade parts across the border, they intercepted two shipments of the parts, which were purchased from an online surplus dealer, and made a decision to let the parts be delivered, after being marked for tracking purposes, in an effort to set up a sting, instead of arresting Kingery for the illegal activity and stopping the grenade parts at their source. Unfortunately the oversight of the operation must have stopped there, because the agency came under scrutiny when grenade hulls bearing the same markings were later found in the aftermath of cartel battles with Mexican police.
