> The "they" will do anything they damn well please to cheers. You are demoralized. The ATF directors appointment failed because of public pushback. What you must understand is they can *threaten* to do something, or pass a policy, *so long as they are sure they can gain compliance*. The moment they pass a *significant policy or make a move* that is *widely ignored*, the paper tiger collapses. Thats part of the reason we saw all the doubling down about the vaxx. Fully half or more of the public rejected it (ignore the "70+% acceptance" bullshit the regime spews). It's why gun control will fail. It's why pro-abortion will fail. It's why income tax will eventually fail. And tax on small businesses. And all manner of other laws. They don't really have the power to make us do anything if enough in the public say no. They only have the power to make mostly empty threats. And the more we encourage others to call their bluff, the more the regime will collapse under the weight of its own inertia. The federal government's "mandate to rule" over the states *is failing*.
