Hmmmm, so the federal agents don't want to "cooperate" in a criminal investigation? And they allowed hundreds of guns to be purchased by felons? And let those guns go to a sovereign country where they were used to kill unknown numbers of civilians AND a US Border agent? And, there are still people who think the police DON'T act like they are ABOVE the law?? LOL! These are some of the most powerful police in the country and they tell their civilian BOSSES (!) they are going to cooperate? They openly tell their employers what they will and will not do? They either forgot who they work for or are revealing their contempt for us.
