Much prefer if he abolishes the ATF, or at least removes them from everything firearm related.

Oh he'd probably do that. Sounds right up his alley! To save money on rebranding he might name it, Alcohol, Tobacco, and FreedomFlights. That way they can still be called, "the ATF".

They can continue to raid people's homes but now with extraordinary renditions and torture; just the way DeSantis likes it.

Man you people really do live in an alternate reality huh?

DeSantis was there at Guantanamo when the US government was torturing the people that were kidnapped from all over the world (aka "extraordinary renditions")...
