James Comer Just Caught the Biden ATF and Bloomberg’s Gun Group Sharing Something They Hoped Nobody Would Find

Biden's White House secretly summoned Glock executives to a private meeting and told them to redesign their pistols.

Ninety days later, Bloomberg's gun control army sued Glock in Chicago court using the exact same complaints from that meeting.

James Comer has the receipts, and the people who were supposed to hand them over already ignored two congressional subpoenas.

The Setup Nobody Was Supposed to See

On December 20, 2023, the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention pulled Glock into a private meeting and told the company it needed to change its pistol designs.

The Biden administration had a specific demand: make it harder for criminals to install "Glock switches" – the illegal conversion devices that turn a semi-automatic pistol into a machine gun.

Glock said no.

On March 19, 2024, the City of Chicago filed a lawsuit against Glock in state court – with Everytown Law, the litigation arm of Michael Bloomberg's gun control empire, listed as counsel for the plaintiff.

The lawsuit made the same argument the White House had just made in private.

John Feinblatt, president of Everytown, then posted publicly on X that federal officials had "recently contacted Glock" about the exact design modifications from that White House meeting – details no outside party should have possessed.

Comer's letter to the ATF states the obvious: Feinblatt had insider knowledge of a confidential federal meeting.

A Revolving Door That Explains Everything

Comer isn't just chasing a timeline. He's chasing people.

Rob Wilcox served as Deputy Director of Biden's White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. Before that, he spent nearly eight years working for Everytown.

Marianna Mitchem served as Associate Assistant Director of the ATF. After leaving federal service, she was hired directly by Everytown as Senior Firearms Industry Advisor.

This is not coincidence. This is a pipeline – Bloomberg's organization seeding federal agencies with anti-gun operatives, those operatives using government access to wage lawfare against gun manufacturers, then cycling back to Bloomberg's payroll when the work is done.

Comer's June 24 letter to ATF Director Robert Cekada demands all documents and communications between any ATF employee and Everytown – specifically covering the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, the Chicago litigation against Glock, "Glock switches," auto sears, conversion devices, gun control litigation, and Illinois firearms law.

The deadline: July 8.

They Already Ignored Two Subpoenas

This is not Comer's first request. Not even close.

In June 2024, the House Oversight Committee wrote to both the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention and the ATF demanding all communications with Everytown. Both went silent.

On October 3, 2024, the committee escalated to formal subpoenas. Neither agency produced a single document.

In April 2026, Comer went to the National Archives – because when a federal agency buries records, the archive is the last place left to look.

This is the fourth formal attempt to obtain documents that federal law required the Biden administration to preserve.

The ATF under Biden didn't just stonewall Congress. It took Michael Bloomberg's side against the U.S. House of Representatives and dared anyone to do something about it.

This Is What Lawfare Looks Like

The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act – the PLCAA – was passed in 2005 with bipartisan support specifically to shield gun manufacturers from exactly this kind of predatory litigation.

Congress understood that allowing cities to sue gun makers for crimes committed by criminals was a backdoor gun ban. If manufacturers faced unlimited liability every time a criminal misused a firearm, the industry would cease to exist.

Bloomberg's machine has been trying to dismantle the PLCAA ever since. Everytown has pushed state-level laws in New York, New Jersey, California, Illinois, Delaware, Washington, and Hawaii designed to create new litigation pathways around the federal shield.

The Chicago lawsuit against Glock fits that pattern perfectly.

What Comer is investigating is something darker – whether the Biden administration didn't just tolerate this strategy but actively participated in it. Whether federal officials used a private White House meeting to gather ammunition for a Bloomberg lawsuit. Whether ATF personnel with Everytown ties served as conduits between a federal agency and an outside gun control group trying to bankrupt American firearms companies.

The Cook County judge denied Glock's motion to dismiss in September 2025, and every day that case moves forward is a day Bloomberg's strategy is working – and Comer wants to know exactly how much of it ran through the Oval Office.
