Cruz blasts ATF nominee Chipman over 'troubling allegations' of racism, appearance on Chinese state TV
Fox News
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, on Thursday blasted the "troubling allegations" surrounding President Biden's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) nominee, citing his past alleged comments about Black ATF agents and a previously undisclosed appearance on a Chinese propaganda media station.
Cruz slammed the committee as having a "consistent pattern of focusing on partisan priorities of Democrats at the expense of fulfilling our responsibility to the American people." He said Chipman’s nomination raises "very serious concerns" because of his work with pro-gun-control groups like Giffords and Everytown, and due to new, "disturbing" allegations of racism and of participating in communist propaganda.More Related News
