The ATF started emailing and placing calls to gun dealers in the Dallas and Houston areas, warning about attempts by straw purchasers to acquire high-powered weapons. According to one recorded phone call, the ATF believes that the cartels are behind the straw purchases and are “gearing up” for something over the next 60 days. The ATF agent did not give any specifics as to exactly what the cartels were planning. The email reads:
*****
This is almost comical given the fact that the ATF was arming the cartels during Operation Fast and Furious during the Obama years.
I'm guessing the ATF doesn't want the competition?
