Lawyer representing man killed by ATF says raid might have occurred to support new Biden regulation https://justthenews.com/events...ed-support-new-biden Arkansas Attorney Bud Cummins, who is representing the family of Bryan Malinowski who was killed by ATF agents in a raid, suggested Tuesday that the raid might have occurred to support a new gun regulation from President Joe Biden. "As bad as that story I just told is, it's even worse if it's politically motivated," Cummins said on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. "The gun show loophole, that's what gun control people call it, is the right of hobbyists and collectors to sell their firearms at gun shows without licenses." "President Biden was about to roll out, and did roll out, in April, his new regulation where he took credit for personally closing the gun show loophole," he added. "It appears that this raid might have been coordinated to support that announcement." Malinowski was the local administrator of an airport in Little Rock, Arkansas. Earlier this year, federal agents showed up to execute a search warrant in his home, leading to a standoff which resulted in Malinowski being killed. Federal investigators alleged Malinowski violated federal gun laws by operating as a firearm seller without the proper licensing, a Federal Firearms License, or FFL. Cummins argued the use of deadly force was likely unjustified given the circumstances. “As part of his hobby of collecting, buying, and selling various items Bryan occasionally set up a table at local gun shows where he mainly displayed guns and coins. In Arkansas a private seller may legally sell a firearm without holding a federal firearm license (FFL) and without filling out forms or conducting background checks,” Cummins said in a statement at the time. The ATF has not responded to requests for comment at this time, but noted last month that there is still an ongoing investigation into the incident. Bud Cummins is expected to testify before Congress on May 22 before the House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government about the incident with Malinowski. _________________________ | |||

Any chance that will happen? I guess a better than zero chance. Especially if he's been listening to Vivek at all. I know for sure if someone other than Trump is elected it will get worse. The reality is until the people rise up and make it stop with blood, it's going to continue. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The trouble with our Liberal friends...is not that they're ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so."

Here's the Reader's Digest condensed version of what is going to happen to them: Nothing. You'll hear some presumed outrage from folks who can change things but don't, and you'll hear a lot of "I can't comment about an ongoing investigation" from the other side. And, at the end of it all, nothing will change. Nothing. ________________________________________________________ It is long past time for a Convention of States.

Jordan and Gowdy were great talkers, they never had any results and their investigations were like all the rest. Investigations are where problems go to die. _________________________ | |||

This isn’t the first time that ATF has pulled this kind of crap, remember a few years ago when they burned a guys house down in California I think … wee hours of the morning, threw in smoke grenades and he wasn’t resisting either. If you really want something you'll find a way ... ... if you don't you'll find an excuse. I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either | |||

How do these guys sleep at night ??? How do they explain to their family what their job is ?? Is there no honor at all in the ATF ?? | |||

The words honor and ATF should never be used in the same sentence. | |||

They sit around in a circle sucking each other off and telling each other what heros they are, how they're the thin blue line separating chaos from order, and their leadership keeps feeding them the same slop. Like any other organization, they don't wake up in the morning and think, "I'm going to be evil today" because they've been conditioned to see themselves as good.

A) He’s right to not comment on an existing investigation - but they’ve had enough time to have announced some basic findings. (Did AR state police reform after the Clinton era?) B) I don’t know about AR, but TMK every LEO in TX has a bodycam. Seems very implausible that the locals didn’t have them. That the victim hasn’t been smeared yet, probably means there’s nothing there. | |||

Warning: Old thread revival. I am optimistic. _______________________________________ https://www.ammoland.com/2026/...id-bryan-malinowski/ "The raid has left many questions and few answers. Mr. Malinowski had no criminal record. He was a well-liked member of the community with a high-paying job. Many Arkansans, including Arkansas State Senator Mark Johnson, have questioned the need for a pre-dawn, high-risk raid on Malinowski’s home. Sen. Johnson highlighted that the ATF even stated in its search warrant application that it did not believe Malinowski was a dangerous criminal. “We don’t have answers, we only have questions,” Sen. Johnson told AmmoLand News. “We are asking the President to direct the DOJ to investigate. There is conflicting information from the ATF. The citizens of Arkansas deserve the truth.” Another major question is the lack of body cameras. Most law enforcement agencies now employ body cameras for their officers. According to Sen. Johnson, the Little Rock Police Department has a policy requiring body cameras for all its officers, yet none of the Little Rock officers wore them during the raid. Additionally, ATF agents reportedly covered Malinowski’s doorbell camera with tape to prevent it from recording the operation. The Arkansas legislature questioned Little Rock Police Chief Heath Helton, but the chief refused to answer any questions on the advice of the Little Rock City Attorney. Sen. Johnson said he was troubled by the lack of transparency, stating that Helton “stonewalled” the legislature. Instead of clearing up the situation, the non-answers only created more questions." https://www.ammoland.com/wp-co...linowski-4-22-26.pdf | |||

RichardC, you are way more optimistic than I am. I predict that this will fall by the wayside as so many “investigations” have previously. Once CONgress gets involved, the better odds are on this solves nothing . I hope I’m wrong! -------- After the game, the King and the pawn go into the same box. | |||

The man was murdered by the corrupt ATF on March 19, 2024. Trump took office in January 20, 2025. And they just now request the DOJ to investigate? Q | |||
