How about just shut down the ATF. Problem solved.

Trump isn't playing this time. Better be careful.

 

[FrogFire7]

Honest mistake. They just "interpreted" the order incorrectly. Probably a first for that agency

The real problem isn't solved as it's said to be "paid leave"! Should be terminated by no longer a position and not paid leave until we slot you in somewhere else in dept. to do nothing.

Because of government "workers" unions, there are procedures.

Paid leave followed by elimination of the position.

Might have been better to say "laidoff with severance" as I'm still thinking they will squeeze her into another spot to hide. Just like they retitled her. I understand that union thing as that's why I think her new title will put her somewhere. It was a stepping move.. I hope you're correct but only can watch her name to find out as they won't announce it. I'm sure she was proud as a diversity official, don't know what skills were needed for that as for where she could fit into a working position. Bet she gets a high supervisor title job and not worker.

The new administration mantra should be "Fart around and find out" the first word is interchangeable with another four letter word starting with F.
Saw someone hired a mobile billboard parked outside Shot Show 2025 that says "Shutdown the ATF"
Probably the only thing that makes sense at this point considering their blatant constitutional violations.

 

[LongRangeJumper]

Shut down ATF isn't possible because they are supposed to be a revenue dept that adhears to the laws as written, collect the taxes as defined and not make laws what they want them to be.
They were allowed way too much leash of many decades and finally are being pulled back. We need to change the laws to better define their job and deregulated all gun laws as unconstitutional as they are. Should not be able to regulate or tax a right.
ATF should only be AT as those products are not a right.

The laws are unConstitutional. Therefore we don't need that organization.

 

[LongRangeJumper]

ATF is alcohol, tobacco and firearms and they are there to collect taxes(revenue/free taxpayer funds) associated with each. That is why you can't get rid of it. Alcohol and tobacco CAN be taxed as they are not a right. Firearm laws and taxes need to be removed so that will leave the dept as AT(alcohol, Tobacco).

If we take firearms out of the ATF does this mean I can stop identifying as a non gun owner?
