President Joe Biden’s pick to serve as Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), David Chipman, is a known gun control activist. Not only has Chipman repeatedly worked to strip Americans of their Second Amendment rights, but he also played a role in the Waco, Texas massacre, among other things.

As The Daily Wire reported, “Chipman worked at Giffords, which advocates for gun bans. CNN called Chipman a ‘fierce advocate for gun control.’ Chipman locked his Twitter account so people cannot see what he has stated publicly, however, a comparison of online archives to his current account appears to show that he has deleted well over 1,000 tweets.”
