Biden is withdrawing the nomination for the head of the ATF (bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms) because he is an alcoholic…. Hahaha just kidding, it’s because he owns stock in tobacco companies….. anahahahahaahha just kidding, it’s because he supports gun control.
So, yeah… it was perfectly ok for fossil fuel lobbyists to run the EPA, or a guy who still has his own shipping business to run the Post Office, or a person who lobbies on behalf of for-profit colleges to run the education department. But in America, we draw the line at guns. If you’ve ever suggested that maybe gun control might be a good thing amid hundreds (thousands?) of mass-shootings, you are disqualified from a job which requires you to… control guns.
By the way, of course Joe Manchin gets his name into the story. He’s West Virginia’s Ted Cruz - 100% self-promotion. He will make sure the Dems never pass anything, because if they do pass something, the news won’t be about JOE MANCHIN that day.
