Mexico asks U.S. for answers over historic gun-running row
[TWITTER-Obama gun running]

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said his government would send a diplomatic note to Washington for information on the 2009-2011 operation known as ‘Fast and Furious,’ a topic that has resurfaced in recent days amid a debate over historic U.S.-Mexico cooperation on security and possible corruption under previous administrations.

#1 The extremely SLOW and FURIOUS response to FAST and FURIOUS.

#3 A most excellent time to bring the subject up now that we're discussing various misdeeds that occurred during the scandal-free Obama administration. Inquiring minds...

#5 We simply have to win on Nov. 3. Then four years to expose the lies and criminal behavior of these corrupt little sh!ts. God forbid they get away with this. Full court press.

Most corrupt era since the Robber Barons

#6 Gee, we would have about two months between a Trump loss and when that info would have to be released, wouldn't we?

#7 I'd honor extradition requests, with the exception that if one cops to the same crime in the US and does time, sending them to Mexico might constitute double jeopardy. Though I'd allow Mexico to appeal that one to SCOTUS (who recently said state and federal charges do not constitute double jeopardy).

#8 we are willing to extradite the mastermind, one Eric Holder

all these coup plotters and corrupt officials are comforted by the thought if they ever did time, it would be at the cushy club Fed, with plenty of access to amenities and media mouthpieces.

i bet letting a third would country prosecute and jail them would be something they never foresaw

kind of the reverse of what they were using other countries for in their efforts to spy on other candidates

let Holder rot in Mexican jail

#9 I can't remember the topic, but I can remember Congress asking Holder for some memo which, at the time, he was refusing to release. But, my heavens, is there nothing from the Obama Administration that doesn't stink?

#11 Oh it goes to the top. There is a ton of shit that Obumble could be nailed and sent to the federal pen for.

No one will do it though.
