BREAKING on Fast and Furious: Holder to Appear Before Issa’s Committee on
Feb. 2
By AWR Hawkins
I just received an email update from Congressman Darrell Issa’s (R-CA)
office, stating that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder is scheduled to
testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on
February 2. The questions will center on the Department of Justice’s
knowledge of, and response to, the gunwalking tactics that were used in
Operation Fast and Furious.
The A.G. Will also be asked to address the DOJ’s “steadfast refusal to
disclose information following the February 4, 2011 letter to Senator
Grassley, which the [DOJ] has withdrawn because it contained false
information denying allegations made by whistleblowers about Operation Fast
and Furious.”
-----
The last portion of the letter provided me via Issa’s email highlights new
(and startling) information on the DOJ’s refusal to cooperate with
investigators to date.
According to the letter, in December 2011 the DOJ “explicitly informed the
Committee that it would not deliver subpoenaed documents relating to
Operation Fast and Furious created after February 4, 2011.” Moreover, “in
interviews with committee investigators, senior Justice Department officials
who had management responsibilities for Operation Fast and Furious have also
refused to answer questions about decisions and conversations that occurred
after February 4, 2011.”
Whatever happened to the transparency Obama & Co. Promised us when running
for office in 2008? And what exactly could Holder & Co. Be hiding that
forces them to go to such extremes to prevent a discovery of the truth?
It is high time for prosecution to begin. Holder & Co.’s contempt for
Congress knows no bounds.
