Whistleblower Answers Questions About ATF/DOJ Fast and Furious Malfeasance

“ATF whistleblowers sound alarm on Biden admin proposal that effectively bans private gun sales,” Fox News reported in early February. “Watchdog group says alleged ATF proposal would ‘go after law-abiding citizens for private’ gun sales.”

One of the names in the story was familiar, Pete Forcelli, a retired ATF deputy assistant director turned “whistleblower” and author of The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels, scheduled to go on sale March 5, and available now for pre-order. AmmoLand will post my review of this book as a follow-up to this report.

The name was familiar because both my colleague, the late Mike Vanderboegh, and I had written about Forcelli’s testimony back in 2011. It was the story of a man smuggling grenades across the border to the Mexican cartels the Department of Justice did not want to prosecute, and when it got exposed, tried throwing agents under the bus.

  1. Like all congressional "inquiries" it’s show time to make the audience applaud but then the curtain will come down and the actors will go back to their dressing rooms.

  2. So this testimony will be filed next to the JFK paperwork, Project Blue Book, etc?

  3. All this paper is up-cycled on rolls and placed in congressional bathroom stalls.
