A Bracken County Republican Party page made a post on Friday, calling the new ATF director, Steve Dettelbach, a “Jewish anti-gun activist,” the Louisville Courier Journal reported.
Dettelbach on Tuesday by a mostly party-line vote of 48-46. He is the first Senate-confirmed director of the bureau since 2015.
Kirkendol told the Courier Journal that the page was hacked and said she decided to delete the county party’s Facebook page entirely “due to the hurtful nature of the article, and how much harm it was bringing to so many.” The original post also criticized Sens. Susan Collins and Rob Portman for voting to confirm Dettelbach. It also attacked Sens. Ben Sasse and Jim Risch for not attending the vote, a move the post said was an “obvious tactical choice since they don’t want to have to explain it to their heavily rural gun loving voters in the future.”
