The mysterious, opaque, and secretly funded White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention (OGVP), headed by Vice President (and now presidential candidate) Kamala Harris, is an anti-gun organization. Refuses to cooperate with efforts to investigate collusion with Everytown. gun safety. So on Thursday, the House Oversight Committee, chaired by Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), issued two subpoenas. One letter was addressed to the Director and the other to the Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). ).
Subpoena to Feldman
The collusion, or collaboration between Everytown and OGVP, was clear. In announcing the subpoena to OGPV Director Stephanie Feldman, Comer explained:
The Committee noted that on December 20, 2023, the White House Office to Prevent Gun Violence held a private meeting with Glock representatives, during which they learned that the government could illegally modify and fire Glock pistols. I learned that they requested changes to the pistol design to make it more difficult. It operates continuously with just one pull of the trigger.
On March 19, 2024, the City of Chicago filed a lawsuit against Glock in state court. Everytown Law, the litigation arm of Everytown for Gun Safety, is listed as the plaintiff's attorney.
On the day the lawsuit was filed, John Feinblatt, president of the Everytown Gun Safety Association, posted on his Announcing a historic lawsuit.” The problem may be solvable, but handguns are easily modified. ”
Later in the post, Feinblatt said, “Federal authorities recently contacted Glock to discuss implementing a new method of modifying Glock pistols to make it difficult to install Glock switches.” Instead of helping, Glock falsely claimed there was nothing they could do. ”
Since the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention's meeting with Glock was private, Mr. Feinblatt appears to have had inside information about your office's meeting with Glock, which indicates that your office is reporting to Everytown.・It raises questions about whether he colluded with For Gun Safety in filing a lawsuit against Glock. .
In June, Comer's committee requested documentation of conversations between OGVP and Everytown to find out if there was really collusion. Feldman ignored the request.
On July 19, Kamel tried again. Instead of a response from Feldman, Comer received a “lost” response from Rachel Cotton, deputy adviser to the president. She said his demands were a witch hunt, a political stunt and “baseless.”
Summons to Dettelbach
Comer upped the ante. Last Thursday, he appeared before the committee in person to explain the reasons for the veto to both Feldman and ATF Director Steven Dettelbach, and to dig deeper into the administration's apparent collusion with Everytown against Glock. He was notified that he would be issued a summons to appear in court.
In a letter to Dettelbach, Comer reiterated this relationship:
Feinblatt appears to have had inside information about the meeting with Glock, as the meeting between the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention and Glock was private. Questions have been raised about whether it was started in collusion with gun safety. Their lawsuit against Glock.
Who is the real culprit?
The cosmetic issue is the so-called Glock switch, or auto sear. This is a quarter-sized device that, when attached, converts a Glock pistol from semi-automatic firing to automatic firing. The New American carefully tracked and documented the legal maneuvering, exposing its true purpose: judicial punishment. People can be forced into bankruptcy even if they are innocent (i.e. General Michael Flynn).
There is no mention of legal disputes regarding the real culprit. This is a person who may have installed a “switch” and used a modified firearm to commit a crime. He should be indicted, not Glock.
