Let me enter into the record that Greene is a dangerous nutcase that we should all hate unlike Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tahlib but what about the idea of abolishing the ATF? Good or bad? Not that any federal agency is EVER going away but still
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., planned to introduce a bill Thursday morning that would abolish the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Daily Caller reported.
Greene’s bill was named after Brian A. Terry, a former Marine and Border Patrol agent killed during a botched operation to track guns smuggled across the southern border.
The congresswoman confirmed the news on Twitter after the Daily Caller broke the story.
"I’m introducing this legislation to #EliminateTheATF to protect ALL gun owners across this country from a tyrannical, power hungry group of bureaucrats who’s goal is to destroy our Second Amendment rights," Greene tweeted.
Greene’s staff told the Daily Caller the bill would include:
Alcohol, Tobacco, and other regulatory functions being transferred back to the FBI.
Requires the FBI publish an itemized list on its website of all confiscated firearms and ammunition, which must be sold to Federal Firearms Licensed (FFL) dealers via public auction before the Bureau closes.
Proceeds from the auction are to be placed into a fund for the families of border patrol officers killed in the line of duty as a result of Operation Fast and Furious, providing grants up to $150,000 per family.
Any remaining funds not used by 2032 will be re-directed to a program awarding states grant funds to establish firearm safety programs.
"Twelve years ago, under the direction of hate America leftist [former Attorney General] Eric Holder, the ATF smuggled firearms to Mexican drug cartels (Operation Fast & Furious) who then used those firearms to kill American hero Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry," Greene told Daily Caller. "This can NEVER be allowed to happen again.
Sounds kind of mean to Holder IMO

Cleaning house of the agencies is required but they outlast whoever is in the White House
Just another day of random shootings, suspect in custody(for now at least) yet information on the shooter is being suppressed so, we know for sure it’s not a white guy.
