It all started with this. Nothing really unusual here, just Daddy Bloombucksâ Everytown doing what theyâre paid to doâŚattempting to stir up their low-information, red-shirted, wine-swilling membership in the run-up to the midterms. The goal is to elect more âgun senseâ candidates that will be reliable automatons, voting to restrict your gun rights and outlaw Americaâs most popular firearms.
Because âgun safety.â Or something. Just another day ending in ây.â
Anyway, thatâs when Evertownâs chief flack â Max Steele, their Senior Director of Communications, who probably wrote the initial tweets anyway â added his two cents from his personal account, amplifying what heâd already said.
If youâre wondering, Cekada was probably talking about Democrat campaign talking points like this . . .
And who should enter the chat at that point? Why, none other than ATF Director Robert Cekada himself, objectively the most gun rights-friendly head of the firearms regulatory agency weâve ever seen.
Steele, being the a smug, bottom-feeder he is, clearly never expected Cekada to take exception to his trolling, let alone crack back at him publicly. All Steele could think of at that point was to criticize Cekada forâŚresponding to his sh*tposting.
That prompted Cekada to come right back at him from the top rope . . .
Look, we know lots of you donât believe ATF should exist at all, but how can you possibly be blackpilling when the man who runs the federal firearms regulatory agency kicks back with an adult beverage on a Friday evening and takes time to bang out a few tweets slamming one of Michael Bloombergâs paid mouthpieces and calling him an idiot?
