Federal Marshals with Search warrants for all information regarding Agent Cefalu’s notice of termination, as well as “Fill In The Name” Arrest warrants for anyone whose signature is on any document authorizing this action should be front and center at ATF Headquarters first thing Monday morning.

I have long advocate that ATF,(E), should be stripped of all arrest powers. They are Treasury, and therefore are essentially bean-counting revenue-collectors.
They have proven time and time and again that they have utterly no business wearing a badge and carrying any firearm.

Let them do paperwork and collect evidence, but let other more professional enforcement agencies,(after their own internal oversight of ATF(E) data is satisfied) be tasked with actually arresting people.

It seems that the lesson given by Timothy McVeigh has already been forgotten…and so soon.

“If the Court please, I wish to use the words of Justice Brandeis dissenting in Olmstead to speak for me. He wrote, ‘Our Government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example.’ That’s all I have.”
