Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman, the notorious Mexican drug lord and prison escapee who was recently recaptured, was found to have been the recipient of a .50 caliber rifle that was part of the Fast and Furious gun running cache concocted and promoted by the ATF and the Obama administration.
The program was created to funnel weapons to the drug cartels in Mexico with the aim of following the weapons back to the criminals involved in drug running into the U.S. Thousands of weapons were sold, including 34 of the .50 caliber rifles that are powerful enough to take down a helicopter. The plan was a disaster as the ATF lost track of 70% of the weapons, allowing criminal elements to heavily arm themselves in Mexico, a country with very strict gun laws.
The Fast and Furious program was such a poorly planned and executed program that Republicans in Congress demanded more details and documents showing how it spun out of control so badly, and who was responsible for the failures that led the the deaths of a number of people, including a U.S. border patrol agent. Attorney General Eric Holder refused to turn over the requested documents and spent several years hiding information and denying requests for documents by the Congress, for which he was ultimately held in contempt of Congress.
However, no punishment was ever meted out for his outrageous behavior and refusal to provide the requested documents.

Hang Obama and holder, they are the guilty ones.
More of Obama’s administrations incompetence
Hey liberals who are against the 2nd Amendment – how’s it feel to know Obama is against it only for Americans ? Get it yet?
Of course, Eric Holder and Obama gave these guns to the Drug Cartels and we are now seeing them in the Cities of the United States and they are killing Blacks and Whites in Illinois. The Blacks just about had it with Democrats.
When will they arrest holder and Obama for a straw purchase with intent of terrorism.
Yup, yet all he does is skate…
So OVOMIT and el chapo do have something in common! Who knew!
Your right Joseph blowers! I just wonder WHO DID THE BACKGROUND CHECK ON OVOMIT BEFORE HE GAVE THOSE GUNS?
A noose is a much better idea….it will save us on the space and food wasted on keeping him and the other criminals alive.
