This is not the victory that you think it is
I saw this bit of news and saw gun rights supporters celebrate it.
White House to withdraw controversial ATF nominee David Chipmanhttps://t.co/3G92en8DyV

At first blush, it looks like good news. But it’s not.
David “baby killer” Chipman wasn’t withdrawn because he’s a radical anti-gun activist or because he defended the ATF’s actions against the Branch Davidians or any of the other horrendous shit he has done.
Nope, it’s because he is a racist piece of human garbage who harmed the career of a black subordinate.
The lesson the Biden Administration learned is that they need to find a radical anti-gun activist with a history of having no moral compunctions against killing children in a raid, who is a minority and cannot be accused of being a racist.
Chipman may be gone but the Biden Administration won’t let this one go. They will find someone worse and harder to take out. Mark my words.
