The Director and whichever team of lawyers put forward that defense needs to be flogged and then jailed.

However, they’ll get a bonus for being creative.

They are a “bureau” just like the FBI and the FBI is proven subject to FOIA requests.

The judge should be tossing people in jail for contempt over this kind of nonsense.

These people are so empowered by the likes of Obama,Clinton, Lerner, Koskinen, Holder and the entire DOJ that they don’t even bother to formulate a rational plan. They just throw out their load of cr@p and see what sticks on the judicial wall. Apparently most of it.

(f) For purposes of this section, the term—

(1) “agency” as defined in section 551(1) of this title includes any executive department, military department, Government corporation, Government controlled corporation, or other establishment in the executive branch of the Government (including the Executive Office of the President), or any independent regulatory agency

Seems pretty comprehensive to me.

The ATF needs to be disbanded, and it’s employees fired after a large “atf” brand is tattooed on their foreheads so people will no not to do business with them.
