I vote for Stephen Stamboulieh. The lawyer who sued the ATF to try and get post 1986 machineguns back.

Every opinion he could direct would be in favor of the people's second amendment rights.

Serious idea.

1) would Nolo be interested?  would he be willing to apply in writing?
2) we have some upstanding, honorable, well connected members here.  
3) Nolo would be a viable appointment.  Why not?

Make it so.

The ATF does not collect taxes from breweries and distilleries, or from tobacco producers. These and the excise taxes on firearm and ammo manufacturers is collected by the TTB under Treasury.

He was a very early Trump supporter and would make lots of heads explode.

Since JFK was able to get RFK as his AG, I seriously doubt making DT Jr the Director of BATFE could be considered nepotism.  Anyway, considering the hoops President Trump had to jump through to remove himself from the operations of the Trump business, I suspect DT Jr. will be very busy for the next 4-8 years.

I nominate Old_Painless for Director of BATFE.

As has been said about 4x earlier in the thread. The nepotism laws exist precisely because of JFK/RFK... They didn't exist before...

So yeah.... it would be considered nepotism...
