Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Director Steve Dettelbach came under fire on Tuesday for once again failing to provide a definition to the term "assault weapon" despite leading the government agency dealing with firearms.

ATF Director: “I’m just a government bureaucrat who doesn’t know anything about the items I regulate.”

[B-U-T-C-H-E-R]

I'm an expert in alcohol, tobacco, and firearms. I use them all extensively and on a daily basis. This cross between Quagmire and Peter Griffin needs to go, along with the ATF, wasting tax dollars

[ABaney]

This is ridiculous. So how do you hire a guy and put him in charge when he admits he has no idea what he’s doing? This is insane. SMH!

[staradder]

Ladies and germs, *_our ATF Director._*

This is the guy who wants to dictate gun ownership in America. And he doesn't know what a gun is. Hold him accountable.

If the person you hired answers every question with "we have people for that" you hired the wrong person

The ATF has no right to make laws. Yet, they do so with impunity... 🤔

For the first time in my life, I agree with the ATF Director that Congress should take a role in this. Congress should absolutely abolish the ATF.

He said it himself he is not a fire arms expert. So what is he doing here. Unbelievable

[dwayneroberts]

This guy should be behind a hotdog cart. That's about all he's qualified for.

Dude was asked a simple question and avoided it like rhe plague

[djusmc]

I haven’t seen one appointee that is qualified in the whole Biden administration.

Fire that atf director. Defund & Abolish dept

[Jack_rabbits_sage_brush]

He is dodging and shifting liability to cover up his criminal organization aka ATF!

[AtlantaGunz]

That man just admitted to not knowing his job

[TractorWrangler]

When you put idiots in charge of important jobs, you really can't expect much from them.

[dcavic]

Get rid of most of these government agencies

[Ethans]

This admin seems to have trouble with definitions.

[ysdczoh]

Graduated from “trust me bro I’m a bureaucrat university”

[Qqxx]

He admits he’s not familiar yet is the face of restricting guns. 👏

“I’ll give you an answer in less time than that” *proceeds to not even remotely answer the question*
