David Codrea, groundbreaking journalist for Fast & Furious scandal, to speak in Montgomeryville

David Codrea is one of two journalists that broke the story of "Operation Fast & Furious", a sting operation conducted by our US Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, that resulted in disaster. The stated purpose of F & F was to track the flow of illegal firearms smuggling from the US to Mexican drug cartels. However the traced guns are linked with the death of 2 US border law enforcement agents, ~500 violent crimes in Mexico, and the loss of 1400 guns in Mexico. Members of the Obama administration are under congressional investigation for their alleged involvement. Was Attorney General Eric Holder withholding information at his subpoena? Is this a government transparency violation? Are there politically-motivated 2nd amendment subversions? Come hear David Codrea speak and inform yourself.
