Next Vice President Wants To Abolish ATF! [Watch]
It’s nothing he didn’t tell us three years ago.
I’d hold off on the exclamation points and gushing over campaign rhetoric until he fleshes out what he wants to do with ATF’s functions, and how he intends to get from here to there with Congress.
Offloading it onto another agency could just make things worse.

It’s a big club and we ain’t in it.
I’m in a discussion on X with someone who claims there’s no difference, a subject I plan to address in greater detail later. My question to him:
Those of us who do recognize these things and are doing what we can with what’s immediately in front of us. The question to you is, besides pointing that out, what should we do with this immediate election coming up? What are you doing?
Consider it also my question to you.

All the times Trump’s VP pick JD Vance has attacked him [More]
I went through his pros and cons here and ended on a note of concern:
Firearms News made three attempts to ask Vance if he would be willing to answer some detailed questions about [being a Never ] and about the legislative agenda gun owners should expect to see him pursue. He has chosen not to respond.
You could ask “Who am I?” and you’d be right, but a national magazine reaching a core voting demographic should not be so easy to dismiss. I also worry about who will be picked to replace him, especially since the GOP candidate who will be opposing Ohio’s Democrat communist gun-grabbing senator Sherrod Brown is another “reformed” Never Trumper who laughed at gun owners and asked:
“What kind of gun do you need to have a hundred bullets in it?” Moreno asked. “And are you going to eat a deer that has a hundred bullets in it? Can’t there be some common sense that says that one [gun] is probably out, right, without infringing on someone’s rights? Can’t we have universal background checks?”
If Vance is elected, his replacement will be picked by the bipolar Gov. Mike DeWine.

How about if they’re a black mother, Lindsey?
For a guy who drools at the prospect of expanding global war opportunitie$, he sure doesn’t understand the concept of existential enemies very well. And for someone “A”-rated by Fairfax, you’d think he’d see an advantage to letting the charges ultimately get dismissed to derail the Big Guys citizen disarmament agenda. It also only helps to keep “above the law” in the public’s mind through to the election.
This is exactly why they call it “the Stupid Party.”
