David Chipman's flailing nomination is another indictment of Biden's gun control agenda

David Chipman’s nomination to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives appears to be going down in smoke. That he was nominated at all is an indictment of President Joe Biden and his gun control agenda.

Sen. Angus King of Maine, an independent who caucuses with Democrats, has reportedly signaled that he is currently opposed to Chipman’s nomination, which is already hanging by a thread, with Democratic Sens. Jon Tester of Montana and Joe Manchin of West Virginia yet to make a call on whether they would help push him over the finish line. King’s opposition would be the end of the line.
