JUST IN: White House Pulls David Chipman’s ATF Nomination In Win For GOP, Gun Groups

The White House on Thursday withdrew the nomination of David Chipman to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), according to multiple reports, a victory for gun groups and Republicans who staunchly opposed his nomination, as seen in this compilation of months of attacks, and a loss for President Biden, who has now had to pull two major nominations.

@@SavageHenry777 Our police department had automatic weapons stolen from unlocked police cars parked outside the police department over two years ago There is no evidence of any report by our police department, and the Sheriff said they cannot get involved without invite from the Chief who operates under the color of law. 60 thefts with witnesses and fingerprints in a seven month period in a community of 7K, never investigated tells the tale. Victims refused an Open Meeting. News article in local cover up news paper said email handed out at council chambers meeting not recorded, no sign in sheet, and withhold the email. It was written by victim and handed out to all at Closed meeting and email mentioned in the article so is required to be released. Administration and head of police department, councilors etc present but they are preventing victims from connecting.Safest city in NM as Chief submits bogus reports. Protects thieves as he must he one. Even the so called news man who has a local paper wrote the email was handed out to everyone present but refused all villagers from attending since unannounced. If victims and justice they are labeled MI and bogus charges made by police and false flag reports to Dispath by the Chief!! He gets exparte orders to kidnap mouthy victims to psych units. Administration covers for him. Maybe all get a cut. Bet some of my coins on Chief's dresses. Falsify reports. Refuse Investigations been now 10 years and thieves have green light. Cop who omitted I was witness, previous carpet layer now has tactile defense training business. Bet he wants a couple auto weapons to impress his trainees. No investigation says he knows who stole them. Automatic weapons stolen from unlocked police cars never in any news. Organized crime. Mafia. So why should we worry about automatic weapons when police hush this up. Falsely called safest itbin NM. But quite the opposite. Civil rights denied. Freedom denied. No news will report on it. Use this as an example as police do not give a shit if "loose automatic weapons in community" . Protect him. The former carpet laying cop rewarded for leaving out of report that I witnessed those who burgled my $40K gold coins. Case closed following day. Too many in on it. Former Administrator hx burglar tools in car and $2500 stolen property in his car. And shoplifting, and on and on and on.Or maybe my thief neighbors w felony histories got the weapons. No one will ever know under this administration as City Attorney was notified by the A.G. to investigate this and now but 2 yrs later he said saidcreturn latter to AG. Now what? This is an attack the messenger village. Whistleblowers get prosecuted with bogus cases while slandering names of good honest victims. Out of control. ignore FOIA requests for emails, AG ordered investigations as no internal audit dept here.All info repressed. Keep the Fifth folks. Remember that is up to you whether to follow illegal orders, especially when ex parte. You are testifying against yourself as reports given to judge and DA. You have right to refuse. Italy mafia, clique gvmt promotes within, Chief gives all dept orders. Don't investigate dog rape either. No ordinance. Last officer in Animal control exposed when female dog he in charge of raped and loose. Had public not found dog he would still be at it. New Mexico. Land of Entrapment. And what was the issue. Oh, guns. He just got $95K to remodel interior if PD. They found $4.7 million in bank acct. Cannot account where came from. Money laundering likely. Corrales, NM

David Chipman believes you should be arrested upon failure of a background report to purchase a gun! He stated that will prevent “projected crime’s by these individuals!” During this “appointment interview process the Senator’s stated; Mr Chipman, you are aware that background checks can be incorrect or can show incidents that should have been removed or disqualified or false? David Chipman preceded to admit “he used his position as “former ATF agent without any legal authority,” conduct surveillance, using a percentage of failed background checks personal information that he gained access to illegally! Then he claimed that those individuals who failed those did commit a crime over the course of the next 3-5 year’s! He stated even though not all violations were violent or gun related, they could have been stopped had (his policy of arresting the projected offenders before they could committed said crime would have proven his hypothesis). He published this on Reddit years ago as well!
