href=\"http:\/\/www.judiciary.senate.gov\/hearings\/hearing.cfm?id=5d30b3b9263394fecc51cd97089c05dc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Senate Judiciary Committee takes up the nomination of B. Todd Jones<\/a> to be the Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives next Tuesday, <strike>June 4th, at 10am<\/strike> &#8211; <b>it has been rescheduled to June 11th at 9:30am<\/b>. Jones is currently the Acting Director as well as the US Attorney for the District of Minnesota. Interestingly, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) will be presiding over this nomination hearing instead of Sen. Pat Leahy (D-VT).<\/p>\n<p>Given the Obama Administration&#8217;s efforts to punish whistle blowers as well as intimidate the press, Mr. Jones&#8217; roll in this should be examined. Last July, Jones issued a video to all ATF employees under his &#8220;Changecast&#8221; set of videos. Changecast No. 8 was entitled Choices and Consequences. While Jones tried to portray this as a warning not to do stupid stuff, <a href=\"http:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.blogspot.com\/2012\/07\/a-barely-veiled-warning-to.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">most in the field took it as a warning not to follow the path of whistle blowers like Senior Agent John Dodson<\/a>. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) saw it this way as well and pressed him on this. I don&#8217;t know if he ever bothered to answer their letter.<\/p>\n<p>Even if Jones sticks with his denial that it was meant as a warning to whistle blowers, it most certainly has had that impact. A case in point is the <a href=\"http:\/\/cleanupatf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CleanUpATF.org<\/a> website. Many who have followed this blog for a while know that it is a website run by and for dissident ATF agents who were fed up with the cronyism, stupidity, and malfeasance of the ATF leadership.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, this website has gone quiet since the beginning of the year. The <a href=\"http:\/\/cleanupatf.org\/forums\/index.php?\/topic\/81-grapevine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Grapevine thread <\/a>which used to be very active has had no posts since March. <a href=\"http:\/\/cleanupatf.org\/forums\/index.php?\/forum\/22-operation-fast-furious-operation-wide-reciever-project-gunrunner-operation-castaway-et-al\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Fast and Furious page<\/a> has had nothing except a cartoon since February, The <a href=\"http:\/\/cleanupatf.org\/forums\/index.php?\/topic\/60-atfs-eeo-tricks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ATF-EEO violations thread<\/a> has had nothing since January.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure veiled and not so veiled threats have been made to ATF Special Agents that they are to keep their mouths shut if they want to keep their badge. I do realize that <a href=\"http:\/\/chrisblattman.com\/2013\/05\/24\/correlation-versus-causation-in-a-single-graph\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">correlation isn&#8217;t causation<\/a> but I don&#8217;t think CUATF going quiet is just happenstance. While I do think ATF needs a permanent director, I don&#8217;t think B. Todd Jones is the person for the job.<\/p>\n<p><b>UPDATE:<\/b> <a href=\"http:\/\/cleanupatf.org\/forums\/index.php?\/topic\/447-contact-your-representatives-immediately-and-urge-them-to-say-no-to-b-todd-jones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The webmaster at CUATF posted the following<\/a> on June 4th regarding the nomination of B.
