Fast & Furious: Another FNDD on Nov 18

FNDD = Friday Night Document Dump

Judicial Watch has finally received the documents referenced in the Vaughn Index from early in November -  see my post on November 5.

Judicial Watch Statement on Release of Enormous Trove of DOJ Fast and Furious Documents

NOVEMBER 20, 2014
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch announced today that it received from the Obama Department of Justice (DOJ) on November 18, 2014, a large production of documents pertaining to Operation Fast and Furious. The documents were forced out of the Obama administration through a June 2012 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request and subsequent September 2012 FOIA lawsuit (Judicial Watch v. Department of Justice (No. 1:12-cv-01510)).

A total of 10,112 documents, comprised of approximately 42,000 pages, were disclosed to Judicial Watch in the new production.  The documents are being posted and most are now available on the Judicial Watch Internet site at http://www.judicialwatch.org/fast-furious-documents-released/.

Judicial Watch is asking people, in a crowdsourcing manner, to search for interesting things (read illegal) in these documents.

Also note that many of these documents just released by the "most transparent administration in history" are completely or almost completely redacted.

Also note that no one has yet seen any of these documents display a desire to get to the bottom of what happened in F&F.  It is all about CYA, attacks on Sharyl Atkisson, and attempts to justify the assertion of executive privilege, etc.
