President Joe Biden's nominee to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) did not disclose his TV hit on a Chinese propaganda network to the Senate, Fox News revealed on Wednesday.
In 2012, David Chipman joined the China Global Television Network to talk about the U.S. response to the deadly Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. At the time, Chipman worked for Mayors Against Illegal Guns and Everytown for Gun Safety, an anti-firearm group dedicated to sparking more gun control in the United States.
During the interview, he highlighted how he believes there will be more shootings "unless we do something about it." According to Fox, Chipman's interview on U.S. failures to contain gun violence was used by the communist propaganda machine to distract from "a mass stabbing of 23 children at a school in China's Henan Province."
While Chipman provided at least 16 pages detailing past media hits to the Senate, he did not list the propaganda network as one despite the fact that the United States began classifying CGTN as a foreign agent under the Foreign Agents Registration Act in 2019.
"I have done my best to identify all interviews given, including through a review of my personal files, and searches of publicly available electronic databases. Despite my searches, there may be other materials that I have been unable to identify, find, or remember," Chipman wrote in a disclaimer to the Senate.
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz condemned Chipman for the TV hit, which he said raises "very serious concerns." The nominee has shown a "consistent pattern of focusing on partisan priorities of Democrats at the expense of fulfilling our responsibility to the American people," Cruz said.

To round (round like in the .300 Blackout) off this post how about some range time everyone? Because the vast majority of gun owners in America are safe, trained and know how to use firearms responsibly. That fact must bother the shit out of Bloomberg and his ilk.
