Issa, Grassley demand documents on ATF whistleblower inquisition

Issa and Grassley cited ATF’s failure, after two months, to answer questions about its approval of “double-dipping” by Assistant Director William McMahon, a figure in the Fast and Furious gunwalking operation whom Issa previously had said “lied to Congress, that will probably be referred for criminal prosecution,” and who has been authorized to accept overseas employment from financial giant JPMorgan while still in public employ. 

They then went on to question Jones about an apparently retaliatory internal affairs investigation against John Dodson, the special agent who came forward and put a face to the whistleblowers in the groundbreaking interview by Sharyl Attkisson of CBS News. [More]
