Iowa senators Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst are calling for accountability and a full review of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ (ATF’s) unlawful misclassification of administrative positions as “law enforcement.” Not only was this decades-long practice illegal, but it also burned millions of taxpayer dollars.

“Padding statistics” is kind of a tradition with them.

Did they do an environmental impact study first…?

In this alleged scheme, these officers make a DWI arrest, that person then hires this particular attorney, the officers don’t show up to court, and the case is dismissed. [More]
But wait! There’s more!

The FBI is reducing hiring standards to the point where it is considering overweight applicants and hiring barely literate agents, a group of current and former FBI agents and analysts allege. [More]
On the one hand, tnat makes them more dangerous.
On the other hand, that makes them less dangerous.

“The US government should not be funding and legitimizing a shady industry whose flagrant violations of Americans’ privacy are not just unethical but illegal,” Wyden said in a letter to Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Avril Haines. “To that end, I request that you adopt a policy that, going forward,” intelligence agencies “may only purchase data about Americans that meets the standard for legal data sales established by the FTC.” [More]
“Request”…?
In a world where it didn’t mean arresting themselves, the “official” criminals participating in this conspiracy to deprive citizens of rights under color of authority would be behind bars…

Murphy has filed a lawsuit against Sunglass Hut’s parent company after a store’s facial recognition program falsely identified him as a robber. As a result, he was arrested and jailed, which led to him being sexually assaulted. [More]
How is it the state can assume custodial control of someone but not assume a duty to protect with attendant liability — and no qualified immunity?

New Jersey Sheriff Richard Berdnik fatally shoots himself in restaurant after officers charged [More]
And just look at all those gun-grabbing Democrats who don’t trust you with guns he supported:

As Duprey made his escape, Duran grabbed someone’s cooler off a nearby table and threw it at the fleeing suspect, hitting him in the head and throwing him off balance, James’ office said in a statement. Duprey sideswiped a tree before he was hurled from the scooter and banged his head on the curb, ultimately landing under a parked vehicle, the attorney general said. [More]

Beginning Feb. 13, 2024, any person who lives with a minor or those who know reasonably that a minor will come into their home must store their firearms safely. [More]
There’s no way to enforce this, of course, except after the fact, and the potential that something might happen is hardly a deterrent to people whose entire life history seems based on bad decisions. Case in point:
The parents of a 5-year-old boy who fatally shot himself with an unsecured gun over the weekend have been charged, officials announced. [More]
If it hadn’t been a gun it could have been anything with morons like this:
…five children were left unsupervised in the house at the time of the shooting, including an 8-year-old, two 7-year-olds, a 4-year-old and the 5-year-old who shot himself.
And now we have a leading “commonsense gun safety law” spokesman!
Hey… any chance we could sue the manufacturer…?
On-duty cop accidentally fired his gun outside Lori Lightfoot’s home: Chicago police [More]
And not just an “on duty cop.” A “veteran Chicago police officer”!
I see “The officer remains on active duty because the firearm discharge was accidental.”
So he’s keeping his gun.
Funny… if you or I had done that, not only would our names be publicized, the only way we’d be out is if we made bail. And you’d better believe there’d be a court order to surrender all weapons.
Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

Hundreds of copies of a local Colorado newspaper were stolen after its latest issue featured a report alleging that a teenage girl was raped at the home of the small town’s police chief by his stepson. [More]
I can’t tell you how many times I slept through drug, drinking and sex parties downstairs when feral sons Uday and Qusay were growing up…
