  • President-elect Donald J. Trump is almost certain to choose a gun-rights advocate as director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives or to simply leave the job vacant.

The article from The New York Times, published on December 14, 2024, discusses the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) under the Trump administration. It highlights how the ATF has been navigating a complex political landscape, with increased scrutiny and pressure from both sides of the political spectrum. The piece details the agency's efforts to enforce gun laws amidst rising gun violence, the political appointees' influence on its operations, and the internal and external challenges faced by the ATF. Key points include the Trump administration's push for deregulation, the impact of the 2020 election on the agency's direction, and the ongoing debate over gun control versus Second Amendment rights. The article also touches on specific incidents and policy changes that have shaped the ATF's role and public perception during this period.
