Corner dwellers will not be the least bit surprised by Robert’s report that wiretap applications submitted to federal court by the Justice Department demonstrate that DOJ officials knew about the reckless investigative tactics used in the Fast & Furious investigation.
Last November, Attorney General Holder and one of his top underlings, Criminal Division Chief Lanny Breuer, tried to mislead the country into believing that Main Justice’s sole role in reviewing electronic surveillance applications is to ensure their “legal sufficiency” — which most people would take to mean: to make certain that the district U.S. attorney’s office and the investigative agency seeking wiretap authorization have stated probable cause that a crime is being committed and that the wiretap will yield evidence of it.
