then there is the covering up ot the murder of brian terry. we still don't have answers about that. just last week we found in somer incident reports indicate that the fbi or the border patrolso s actually left some of the suspects that were on the scenel go.ant they may be at large in mexico. so the list goes on and on. m it is important for -- i don't know what all you want to do as a career path, but i mentioned the media and we need morereal hiewing media to be digging intt these things because it's difficult when there is only a few people doing it. like i said, more than half of you asked for mitt romney to overturn his personal tax 00 returns and say they don't affect anybody. but they are more than happy to ignore the fact that there were 240,000 "fast and furious" documents out there and that the justice department isn't seemlying with records request him and this is a program that got people killed, yet they much.feem to care i am glad that you guys are here. i know it'she summertime and the are lots of things you can be doing during the summer. i hope that you learn somet

brian terry's family certainly wishes he would have. i spoke recently with his cousin, robert hire. >> this is about right and wrong. operation fast and furious, everybody concurs, was a flawed operation. in concept and execution. it was wrong. it was a huge public safety concern, and it remains a huge public safety concern. and just as josephine said, our worst fear is to open up the paper or to read a news story where another border patrol agent has been killed or injured with an operation fast and furious weapon. >> in addition to brian terry, two fast and furious guns were found at a crime scene in mexico where a law enforcement official's brother was killed. the report alleges the atf's phoenix office sought to hush up the fast and furious connection. it quotes e-mails. quote, my thought, agent english writes, is not to release any information. the following month when terry was killed, voth e-mailed back, ugh, things will likely get ugly. it most certainly has. attorney general holder has refused to turn over documents. the house

th to agent brian terry. this is a tough situation., a i and it is, if i may instruct it this way, it sounds if i listen to you, that we are all, including your committees unitel states congress, dependent upon the specter general or the real answer is as to what happened under "operation fast and furious." >> well, that is partially correct. we are waiting on the inspector general. he had access to the full documents way more than what we had access to. >> 140,000 documents? >> more than that actually. i am not going to prejudge his work product.n mind he asked us to keep an open mind. keep in mind that the speaker of the house has also said that his office has communicated to me before july is over, we willcivi have filedl our civil pleading, so we will go to court on theveu executive privilege. there are two avenues of accesse to information that we have at our disposal.ith two arrows in the quiver, so too speak. i metme with somebody who wasy e friends with brian terry's family yesterday. going anywhere.

"the report also says the death of border patrol agent brian terry could have been prevented...g gun smuggler jaime avila lied about his address when he first purchased fast and furious weapons. that lie would have allowed the atf to stop or arrest him - 6 weeks before he bought the guns found at terry's murder.the report also criticizes atf for failing to arrest ring leader and former dea suspect manuel celis acosta, saying"if atf had bothered to conduct a thorough review of all the information contained in the dea wire intercepts, fast and furious might have concluded a year earlier than it did." when guns showed up at a mexican crime scene - rather than concern - u-s attorney denis burke wrote "wow- frickn' a. those are already across the border?"but most embarrassing - when atf learned its guns were used to kill the brother of a mexican state attorney general - an atf supervisor wanted to bury the information, saying "my thought, don't release it" grassley says: "if there isn't enough concern regarding a border patrol government agent being murdered than you can see there is

this is outrage for the family from border patrol agent brian terri. we know it is had justice we know we can't see it. we are hoping we will release it. we are positive it will say what our report says. this is somebody responsible for and signed documents he told our committee he didn't see and didn't know about. the only question is don't read them and sign them. if he did should he be guarding the accounts that the men and women are watching your show have at jp morgan. this is somebody who should have been fired at atf. he is still on the payroll. he has a high paying job one he only got because of his reputation perhaps unearned at atf. >> it is exactly why the country needs a new president he is backing mitt romney. >> we are talking to business news now for stories you can bank on and a stark warning for the nation's economy. a new government report we have to tell you about. dennis kneel has the details. if the tax cuts expire we get tax cuts at the end of the year. what am i missing here? >> you have a fiscal cliff and a rock and a hard place

if you look at collateral damage, and "fast and furious," brian terry and chicago under rahm emanuelre have been more deaths caused by obama than romney. he has more blood on his hands than lady mac beth. if you use their logic. >> bob: what is the emanuel emanuel-obama connection? >> greg: he was his chief of staff. how do we know that obama didn't know they were shot? >> eric: how do you tie the wife's death to romney? how do you make the leap? >> bob: the last line was unfortunate that romney would not be concerned with somebody dying, i'm sure he would be. but there is no doubt that bain capital gutted the company, sold it off and people lost their jobs and lost their healthcare. how it's connected to her i don't know. she died to say romney wasn't concern -- >> andrea: speaking of gutting there were e-mails that the treasury dled by tim ge driving force behind terminating pension to nonunion employees. what does romney do? take out an ad with cat food and employees dieg in their house claiming that the obama administration killed nonunion workers? >> dana: i hope he doesn't. thi

he was also leading the probe into what led to brian terry's death. ice saw was on the record talking about those findings specifically if it proves that wrong doings did not include attorney general eric holder. >> as far as we know it wasn't something where he put time or energy into it, he didn't read the briefings and wasn't involved. brewer and a lot of people-low him allowed others to do things. >> you make no allegation of a coverup. >> that will come later. you have no question in your mind at some pointer rick holder became part of the cover up. >> i have no information. >> yes you do. there were 10 months between when american people were lied to and it was retracted. everybody who either knew it was a lie when it was told to us or became aware it was a lie during ten months. when you discover a crime has been committed and congress has been lied to under oath and in writing you don't sit there and wait for somebody to correct it. >> he asked for the latest on contempt position of attorney general. the council has taken a lead on this but it

you will agree with us on brian terry but won't agree with us on the 100 mexicans or 200 or 300. >> bobns. >> eric: i'm talking about the "fast and furious" guns. remember the guns that walked? >> bob: i do. >> eric: the 200 mexicans -- >> bob: 50,000 killed in a drug war down there. a small percentage were "fast and furious" guns. >> greg: i have one last question. why all the dangerous cities have democratic mayors? >> dana: good question. smart people run for u.s. senate and win in texas. >> bob: smart thing to do. >> greg: good answer. >> dana: i don't know. interestingly across the country crime has been falling down everywhere,men the recession. people have a hard time figuring out why. chicago has a problem, especially though mayor gets good mark on education reform and taking on the unions there. violence is a major problem. >> kimberly: republicans are tougher on law an order. take giuliani. it's true. it is. >> bob: because it mirrors the democratic base. that's what happened. >> greg: we have to take a break. coming up, two words that drive women crazy. seacrest, badminton. l

in light of that, in light of brian terry family should get answers, why don't you request expeditede and justice department can join in and get a filing from the justice department answering yours and judge has to decide this case. there is no reason to take more than a month. that way it won't be involved in a political aspect and terry family gets an answer? >> we have been assigned a judge. we believe she is fair. she is an obama appointee. our home is we will get expedited consideration because the terry family has waited through this investigation for over 18 months. >> greta: i can tell you they are no hurry unless you ask for it. >> we will be using every attempt to get discovery. i will take your free legal advice. >> greta: you don't need discovery. >> you don't need discovery. the government, eric holder has not turned over because he is protected by the executive privilege. either it protects it or not. y don't need discovery. you just need a judge to make a decision. the government agree agrees and it gets decided quickly? >> you are exactly right. but in our filing, we
