We’re seeing a lot of tweets about Tax Day, which has us thinking of abolishing the IRS. But thanks to Director Steven Dettelbach, we’re reminded that the ATF should be disbanded too. Dettelbach was asked at a hearing to define “assault weapons” in 15 seconds, and like Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson when asked what a woman is, admitted to not having the expertise to answer. “Assault weapons” is a meaningless term, but it’s at least better than “weapons of war” (that aren’t used by the military).
If Sen. Dianne Feinstein weren’t missing in action, she could have cleared things up by explaining that assault weapons are the black ones with the thingies attached, like the chainsaw bayonet. Feinstein prefers the less scary-looking wood-paneled models.
Serious question: Can you name one person in the Biden administration who you think is doing a good job? Just one.

Biden Administration ATF Director cannot define an 'assault weapon.'
@RepEllzey: "In 15 seconds, could you define an 'assault weapon?'"
ATF DIRECTOR: "I'm not a firearms expert."

𝕂𝕣𝕚𝕤𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕊𝕡𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕂 (@CallMeK1123) ~ Then why should he be in charge of the ATF?!
Shadz (@Shadzey1) ~
Brad Herndon (@Herndog87) ~ So, is he an expert in alcohol or tobacco? Gotta be one of the three (I would think!).
Well, he has SOME experience with alcohol and tobacco ...
Jennagirl (@Jennife09759932) ~ Much like the guy they wanted to head the FAA who didn't even have a pilots license. At least he had the decency to step down eventually.
Ximon Savacool (@ThatStoryGamer) ~ Abolish the ATF!
There it is!
MONKyMAhN (@Monkymahn) ~ Abolish the ATF. Clown show's been going on for 100 years too long.
William (@Billwood55) ~ I’m not a firearms expert, but I’m enforcing and advising on regulations that impact millions who are. 🤡
Just like the president himself, who’s calling for an assault weapons ban. It’s clowns like this guy that make it clear: If you’re going to write a law banning something, you’d better be pretty damn specific about what it is you’re banning.
Michael Jones 1776 (@77MJones) ~ Most "laws" are based on vague legislation that requires interpretation by the executive branch. To be unable to define something that will be left to the ATF for interpretation is wild.
Well, that's the Democrat way of things ...
Politically_Vagrant (@Fact_Chequer) ~ Not a firearms expert but his job is to deal with firearms. Welcome to a broken government. Welcome to the bureaucratic machine.
JeneralWack (@JWackB) ~ They can't define what a woman is, so what's different?
Jim stotters (@j_stotters) ~ Absolutely loathe these people.
Night "Prove Your Innocence” Wood (@Shteina_Gott) ~ “Velocity of firearms”
That dolt leading the ATF tells you so much about how a ban would proceed.
WolverineInOz (@WolverineOz) ~ The ATF Director, like most Biden appointees, is completely unqualified to lead.
Brett Lucas (@_brettlucas) ~ PSA - the government is not your friend, is incompetent, and despises your freedom. Get local, get active, and nullify the fed.
How do people manage to fail up to these positions? The whole federal government is a clown show.
