So while eliminating the ATF itself or the illegal laws they thugishly impose might not be as easy as the stroke of a pen,...one thing Trump CAN do right away is divert their efforts away from being the villains they are, and forcing them into doing other tasks that actually serve a damned purpose.
Like,...oh,...I don't know,...THE BORDER!!
It seems ATF personnel are going to be assigned to assisting with the immigration enforcement.
And while I am not in favor of expanding and exacerbating the narco wars by sending SOCOM down south to blow up and shoot schit,...but if that is indeed what we're gonna be doing,...then I want those ATF raiders to be in the front stack when hitting the cartel strongholds. Let those phukers see what REAL gun crime is.

Yes reassign to the front line, let them see & learn real gun issues from those who don't give a damn about them or the laws & maybe, maybe they may rethink their evil ways or at least die in the field

Shitters at the detention centers could use cleaning. ATF should be working on that since they are all comfortable w being pieces of crap themselves.

In further ATF pot-stirring news;...
https://nypost.com/2025/01/23/us-news/a ... -programs/
The acting heads of federal agencies warned government workers this week that they are aware efforts have been made to “disguise” diversity, equity and inclusion programs banned by President Trump – and employees that don’t report those obfuscations could face “adverse consequences.”
The DailyMail reported on Wednesday that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives may have attempted to shield a top DEI official from Trump’s order by switching her job title.
ATF employee Lisa T. Boykin was listed on the agency’s website Thursday as a “’Senior Executive,” whereas her job title on Monday appeared as “Chief Diversity Officer.”
Boykin is also referred to as ATF’s “Chief Diversity Officer” in her biography for June 2023 webinar titled, “Emphasizing Diversity and Inclusion in Workforce Modernization.”
Her bio for the webinar, which was hosted by consulting firm Leadership Connect, explains that Boykin oversaw ATF’s Human Resources Operations Division beginning in 2016 and “as a collateral duty, in 2021, Mrs. Boykin also began serving as the Bureau’s Chief Diversity Officer.”
Former President Joe Biden mandated workplace race-based diversity training programs in all federal agencies in 2021 through an executive order.
“With the Bureau’s continued focus on enhancing DEIA, Mrs. Boykin currently assumes the work of the CDO in a fulltime capacity, leading and implementing departmental programs and mandates, while bringing renewed vision and effective strategies to maintain an informed DEIA culture for the Bureau,” Boykin’s bio continued.
It’s unclear whether Boykin, who was listed as ATF’s chief diversity officer earlier this week, has been placed on paid leave.
A spokesperson for ATF told The Post that the bureau “began implementing OPM’s Initial Guidance on DEIA immediately after its issuance on January 21, 2025, in response to the President’s Executive Orders.”
“We have proactively taken the necessary steps to ensure compliance with this guidance, including by placing impacted personnel on administrative leave,” the spokesperson added, refusing to confirm whether Boykin was placed on paid leave.
In accordance with Trump’s order, the Department of Education announced Thursday that it had cancelled over $2.6 million worth of DEI training and service contracts; placed all career staff working on DEI initiatives on paid administrative leave; and identified over 200 web pages promoting “harmful ideological programs” for removal.
