REVEALED: Biden's nominee for ATF head is an anti-gun lobbyist who was at the Ruby Ridge standoff and Waco massacre – and lied about cult members shooting down helicopters

  • Biden pick to head the ATF David Chipman held 'Ask Me Anything' Reddit thread last year where he is revealed to have lied about aspects of the Waco Massacre  
  • Chipman claimed Branch Davidian cult members were able to shoot down to U.S. helicopters with .50 caliber Barretts even though this event never happened
  • ATF showed up at the religious sect's ranch in 1993 with a search and siege warrant for illegal firearms and weapons in the facility – a massive fire ensued
  • The handling of the Waco incident quickly became the subject of major criticism after 76 Branch Davidian members and five ATF agents were killed 
  • Chipman was also involved as an ATF agent with the Ruby Ridge standoff 
  • He was an ATF agent for 25 years and now is a senior policy advisor for the gun control advocacy group Giffords
  • Gun rights advocacy groups are concerned with Chipman's nomination, claiming: 'Joe Biden knows he cannot beat gun owners in Congress'
