[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 4024463, member: 42584"] Okay, "AFT(sic) brace rules?". The BATF, like all Federal agencies are funded through Congress . . . don't want to lose a large part of your funding, [B]do this or else[/B] . . . Remember, the BATF is not only about firearms. It's also about everything alcohol and tobacco as well, meaning that Congressional decisions concerning firearms can also be swayed by the MUCH LARGER [than firearm] alcohol & tobacco lobby. Don't want your tax-money being sent to Ukraine? Don't scream at the Prez because all he does is send a request for the money. It is Congress that funds the IRS and controls the purse strings of foreign aid. Don't like an uncontrolled Southern Border? Congress, again through the use of their purse-strings controls the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and the US Customs Service and 'tells' then what level of 'openness' should be allowed, and along with the DOJ (also controlled) how effectively the Border Patrol is to operate. How many different attempts were thwarted by the Congress controlled DOJ to wall-off the border? And all the while Republicans are so intently and completely focused on bashing the President and his Administration, Congress continues to go about it's business as [B]they [/B]see fit with absolutely no concerns about ever being called-out about what they do (or don't do), which is exactly how they like it and why they encourage it. Yep, let's just keep blaming the White House for all our 'evils' while continuing to elect the same political good 'ole boys time and time again. [/QUOTE]
