Mike Adams and Texas Rep. Cloud agree: Overreaching federal agencies MUST BE CURTAILED
09/10/2024 // Kevin Hughes // Views

The Health Ranger Mike Adams and U.S. Rep. Michael Cloud (R-TX) both agree that overzealous federal agencies being weaponized against the American people should be curtailed.

The two touched on the matter during a recent edition of the "Health Ranger Report." One such agency that needs to be curtailed is the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), which is under the Department of Justice (DOJ).

According to Cloud, Congress had been involved in dealing with the ATF – discovering that the agency had collected an abnormal amount of gun records numbering in the billions. Moreover, the federal legislature also noted that the ATF digitized these records even though it wasn't supposed to have a federal gun registry.

The Health Ranger pointed out that the ATF is getting all the records of federal firearms licenses (FFLs) that cease operations. According to Cloud, the FFL records were supposed to be kept in a gun store file cabinet for 20 years in case something happens. This would enable a local sheriff to look through the records and trace a weapon.

These FFL records also go through the ATF for safekeeping, but they should be destroyed after 20 years. But instead of destroying these records, the ATF immortalized these records and kept them in the federal database. Cloud added the ATF also started to put zero-tolerance policies on FFLs and strict checking of a gun store's paperwork which has led to forced closures. (Related: Huge victory for gun owners as Supreme Court strikes down ATF’s bump stock ban as unconstitutional.)

"And so, this is the kind of bad action that's been happening that we've again been pushing back on. It's this kind of activity that's happening in agency after agency after agency, and why we need to right-size these agencies because they've gone well beyond -- almost every single agency has gone well beyond the scope of what they were created to do," said the congressman who represents Texas' 27th district in Capitol Hill.

EPA another example of an agency that needs to be curtailed

Aside from the ATF, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is another agency that needs to be curtailed as per both Cloud and Adams. The owner of Brighteon.com and Natural News pointed out that the EPA and other agencies have gone crazy by making their fiefdom law – with Congress unaware of all the rules they are creating.

Adams noted that when the EPA was established in 1970, Congress didn't mean to tell it that it should outlaw the air – in particular carbon dioxide, which the agency considers a pollutant. Plants use carbon dioxide to grow through photosynthesis, but the EPA outlaws a molecule that is in the air that grows crops. Moreover, the EPA is also reportedly using the "carbon dioxide as a pollutant" narrative to ban combustion engines by 2035, something Adams called insane.

Meanwhile, the congressman commented that the American people can't hold agencies like the EPA and ATF accountable due to how the executive branch is set up to protect career and political appointees. The multiple layers of accountability in government agencies have become multiple layers of plausible deniability so that no one is ever held accountable, he added. Cloud ultimately remarked that these things are prime examples of what Congress needs to fix in the executive branch.

Adams remarked that the federal agencies have built firewalls against responsibility. Congress has delegated powers to these agencies, but they are going beyond their authority.
