White House: Joe Biden Not Waiting on Congress, Using DOJ to Put Forward Gun Control
by Breitbart
Francesco Abbruzzino, The Uncensored Report, LLC
On April 7, 2021, the White House released a fact sheet announcing that President Joe Biden will use the Department of Justice (DOJ) to publish model red flag “legislation,” address AR-pistols with stabilizer braces, and issue a rule to “stop the proliferation of ‘ghost guns.’”
Breitbart News reported that Biden planned to put forward executive action on gun controls Thursday, and the fact sheet provides an outline detailing what those actions may entail.
According to the White House:
- The Justice Department, within 60 days, will publish model “red flag” legislation for states.
- The Justice Department, within 60 days, will issue a proposed rule to make clear when a device marketed as a stabilizing brace effectively turns a pistol into a short-barreled rifle subject to the requirements of the National Firearms Act.
- The Justice Department, within 30 days, will issue a proposed rule to help stop the proliferation of “ghost guns.”
The White House notes that Biden will also have “five federal agencies [make] changes to 26 different programs to direct vital support to community violence intervention programs as quickly as possible.”
BIDEN: "Nothing I'm about to recommend in any way impinges on the second amendment… No amendment to the Constitution is absolute. You can't yell 'fire in a crowded movie theater' and call it freedom of speech. From the beginning, you couldn't own any weapon you wanted to own." pic.twitter.com/4dChTPgmQm

First, they won’t protect your border. Now, they want to take your guns.

Joe Biden falsely claimed that "you can buy whatever you want, and no background check" at gun shows. When pressed about his lie, Biden spokesperson Jen Psaki claimed he doesn't actually believe that.https://t.co/hysAe73Ogs

“Ghost guns” are not a thing and pistols are already more heavily regulated than rifles regardless of “a fitted brace.” Everything Biden has said today is misleading or flat out wrong.

"Everything being proposed today is consistent with the Second Amendment"
Fact Check: False.

If Biden can call the ATF the "AFT," he's not mentally sound enough to be signing ANY executive orders.
