President Joe Biden yelled about “ghost guns” on the White House lawn, confused the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms with the American Federation of Teachers, and called federally licensed firearms dealers “merchants of death” during a rant against the Second Amendment on Monday.
Biden announced a rule on Monday that will order firearms parts sold online that do not pertain to the firing of the weapon, such as frames and handguards, to be incorrectly labeled by manufacturers and dealers as functional firearms and require licensing, background checks, and serial numbers.
“You bought a gun, take a look,” Biden barked before shuffling over to a table that appeared to display firearm components next to a sign reading “GHOST GUN” and “Buy-Build-Shoot.”
“Take a look at this, it comes in this package,” Biden continued to yell. “You can see the picture down here maybe. This is the gun. It’s not hard to put together. A little drill, a hand drill at home, doesn’t take very long. Anyone can order it in the mail. Anyone.”

Biden also referred to ATF agents as “AFT agents.”
The American Federation of Teachers is the second largest labor union of teachers in the United States.

“We’re going after rogue gun dealers,” Biden shouted, going on to proclaim that federally licensed firearms dealers are “merchants of death” who are “breaking the law for profit, selling guns that are killing innocent people.”
Biden also warned would-be criminals that they could “expect federal prosecution” if the commit a crime with a “ghost gun,” instead of, presumably, the prosecution they would receive for the actual crimes committed.
