Contrary to testimony before Congress, high-ranking Department of Justice officials knew of the "gun-walking" tactics in Operation Fast and Furious, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) charge Tuesday and pointed to DOJ wiretap approvals as evidence.

 

Issa, the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, called on the DOJ to hold several high-ranking agency officials accountable in light of the new evidence.

 

Issa said he recently reviewed six wiretap applications approved by top DOJ officials indicating that they knew about, and should be held responsible for, not stopping the most controversial aspect of the botched gun-tracking operation.
