Operation Fast and Furious was part of Project Gunrunner and became a widespread public disaster for the Obama Administration, and especially Attorney General Eric Holder, ATF Director Kenneth E. Melson and others following the death of a border patrol agent and hundreds of others in Mexico. The ill-conceived concept was supposed to lead US and Mexican authorities to the criminal drug cartels who would receive these weapons, but what really happened? Written and hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.
