I doubt the GOP will have the stones to actually carry this out and even if they did, the ATF functions would simply shift to the FBI or some other agency but I still like the idea. I would rather see the Congress focus on expanding gun rights and rolling back onerous regulations. The ATF is a symptom of the problem, not the cause.
I’m all for it and it’s a great start. But the fact that ANY federal agency can act like Nazi thugs and kick down your door for some made up bullshit, kill you then not be held accountable is the problem. If the FBI/ATF and some local thug law enforcement can get a judge to sign a no knock for no good reason (and I’ve heard that from 1st accounts) then we have a problem way bigger than one agency. The judges, management, and door kickers need to have consequences for their illegal actions.
Maybe I am missing something, but because ATF is an agency of the executive branch, I believe President Trump will be able to abolish it by Executive Order. It shouldn't need an Act of Congress. (I remember when Jimmy Carter created the Department of Energy, I believe by Executive Order.) The question is, will President Trump act to rid us of this quasi-Gestapo.
People expect to much for The orange man he’s already back pedaling and talking like a globalist and look at the Cabinet pick all Zionist and MIGA people
If Orange man was truly MAGA he would have backed for starters Massie for Speaker not the AIPAC sponsored spineless Johnson
While I support this attempt (ie political stunt) to reign in a rogue out of control federal syndicate, I also fully understand it has a less than snowball's chance in the flaming mountain of excrement known as Congress.
For those suggesting we expand gun rights, we should clarify that the second amendment isn't a government provided "right", but rather a direct order designed to limit government from infringing on an unalienable, God given right to self preservation.
There are a long list of intolerable "Acts", foisted onto, unto, into and through the American citizen which need to be repealed, and the NFA and its inbred descendants should be at the top of the list But in order for Congress to do that would require them to demonstrate trust and relinquish power. We all know neither of those will happen, given the current circumstances.
Congress can and should defund these Article II agencies, and President Trump's secretaries should begin dismantling these bureaucracies on day one. Not trimming the tree, rip them out of the ground, burn them to dust, limb, trunk and root, raze the buildings and incarcerate the criminals who have killed, stolen from and terrorized Americans for far too long.

Hallelujah about damn time! I have a feeling this will be a glorious 4 years starting on January 20th..
And Praying 🙏 for the people of SOCAL.

Exactly!!!!

If President Teump gets rid of it by executive order, another president can reinstate it. This is a long shot, but I'm praying it goes through.

Brandon Herrera for ATF Director. He’d love to be out of job ASAP and would work towards that.
Plus he can field strip a Glock much faster than the current Director.
LOL!!! Brandon would be a great pick. By the way, I saw the current director with a Glock. You are correct, sir.
Is this a dream? Am I dreaming? And why are my boxers so wet?

APPROVED, next.
This would be the best gift this administration could give the country 😂
Please make it so!
Great! Abolish it!
