Attorney General Eric Holder claimed during congressional testimony
today that internal Justice Department emails that use the phrase “Fast
and Furious” do not refer to the controversial gun-walking operation
Fast and Furious.
Under questioning from Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), who read
excerpts of the emails at a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Justice
Department oversight, Holder claimed that the phrase “Fast and
Furious” did not refer to Fast and Furious but instead referred to
another gun-walking operation known as “Wide Receiver.”
