'ATF Chief Tells CBS He's Willing To Skirt Laws To Ban Guns He Doesn't Even Know How To Use
2024-03-05
[Federalist] President Joe Biden’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms Director Steven Dettelbach seems to know as much about guns as Democrat-nominated Supreme Court justices.

As ATF head, Dettelbach, who was confirmed in 2022 with the help of Senate Democrats and two Republicans, is expected to understand to some degree the items his agency regulates and enforces. Unfortunately for Americans who have endured a slew of attacks on their Second Amendment rights at the hands of the Biden administration, Dettelbach is publicly ignorant about the guns and gun parts his agency wants to ban.

During his appearance on CBS’s "Face The Nation" over the weekend, Dettelbach outlined for CBS News’s Margaret Brennan the ATF’s desire to ban certain firearms and modifications he claimed are loopholes in restrictive gun laws.

In the sit-down portion of his interview, Dettelbach claimed his 5,000-person agency is "way, way, way too small" to fully satisfy Biden’s gun-grabbing goals. He also admitted the ATF, even though barred from creating a federal database of firearm owners, still devotes its time and resources to "work within that system" and link guns to owners.

#11  Interesting, he doesn't believe in following the law but expects everyone else to. It's about power, not law.

#10  Sort of like someone with a mental illness being put in charge of health issues, and made an admiral.

#8  The ATF is guano on the tip of the iceberg. All of USGOV needs to have 99.999% of its stored data deleted immediately.

#7  49, it's not the vote that count, but who counts the votes. In many places, it's the Democrats.

#6  And they openly admit it. Like the English crown in the 1700's, they have no fear. Their day will come. Thankfully in America we can do it by vote, not violence.

#4  Not too long ago I realized I was 'under-armed'.
Truck and cars are wellmarginally stocked (jump bag, water, rations, blankets, shelter, cutting and repair implements, as well as other stuff).

But when I'm out all day on the tractor...

OK the ATF Chief has just violated his OATH OF OFFICE, by making such a statement.

When will he be removed?
