In the wake of an ISIS inspired terror attack by radical Islamists, Barack Obama isn’t letting a crisis go to waste. No, he’s not going after ISIS with the full force of the United States military- he’s going after your right to legally own a gun. As Kelly Cohen reports:
The White House is finalizing executive action to expand background checks on gun purchases, according to a top official.
White House adviser Valerie Jarrett told those attending a vigil for victims of the Newtown shooting that President Obama’s advisers are working on and will soon be submitting a proposal that would expand background chucks on gun purchases, the Associated Press reported.
His review would be “in short order” and would bypass Congress, Jarrett confirmed.
The Obama administration has been pushing for gun control legislation since the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. The push has been renewed since October’s shooting in Roseburg, Ore., that left nine dead.
It’s been known that the White House has been examining what it can do without Congress for several weeks now. But when asked about the report, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said he had no additional information about the process.
Make no mistake- the President isn’t reacting to some sort of national emergency, as he’ll pretend to be doing. He’s instituting the sort of policies that he and every American liberal actually believe, trying to create a world where the Second Amendment is a thing of the past.
