Don’t forget, Dick Obama just nominated the new successor to be his ATF buddy Andrew Traver from Chicago to be the new acting BATFE director: a known gun grabber and anti RTKBA lenninist. Looks like Dick Obama got caught with his pants down again.
Should have taken out the existing red-white and blue Acting Director sooner before he started singing like a canary.
This will take down Holder, Obama, Hillary, The FBI, BATFE, DEA and maybe even Big Sis. As Joe Biden says, this is a big ******g deal. Will make Iran-Contra look like a teddy bears picnic.
“There is no excuse for Obama to use an unthinkable tragedy/bizarre scandal to push yet another one of his far-left nominations. He is DELIBERATELY nominating Andrew Traver – a man who has demonstrated over and over again that he is anti-gun, anti-self-defense and anti-freedom. Obama even fired project Gunrunner whistleblower Vince Cefalu! When does it end?
So who exactly is Andrew Traver? He is currently special agent in charge of Chicago’s ATF field division, where he has a long history of working with gun prohibitionists. He served as an advisor to the International Association for Chiefs of Police on that group’s 2007 “Gun Violence Reduction Project,” in cooperation with the anti-gun rights Joyce Foundation.
This project involved several high profile anti-gun-rights advocates (including Chicago Mayor Richard Daley.) Interestingly enough, there was not a single representative from the firearms community on the advisory panel.
The nomination of Andrew Traver is more proof that Barack Obama has complete disregard for the Second Amendment and the rights of firearms owners. We have serious concerns that the agency, under his leadership, will maintain any semblance of cooperation with the firearms industry, over which ATF exercises considerable control.”

Excellent info, FlyingEagle. Thanks very much, and so true. I think he showed his hand too quickly.
Ann Coulter said it best when the compared Democrat and Republican “scandals”.
What Democrat would ever try to dream up a plan that would provide arms and supplies to one side of a war between two enemies of our country which might cause greater destruction to both, possibly open the way for hostage negotiations and at the same time, raise money to be sent to freedom fighters in Central America being denied aid by liberals who were rooting for the statist anti-American Cuban-loving Marxists to win out.
Liberal scandals involve stealing money from taxpayers to line their own filthy pockets, or in this case, move the country towards banning gun ownership.
