He&#8217;s also sending letters to each involved agency, digging into their past roles in the project and their current strategies against trafficking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grassley <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grassley.senate.gov\/imo\/media\/doc\/grassley_to_dhs_-_project_thor.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"grassley-biden-admin-ending-project-thor\" title=\"Why Did Biden Defund Successful Anti-Arms Trafficking Operation?\">wrote<\/a>, \u201cThe public reports and records provided to my office indicate Project Thor\u2019s reported success was due in part to a whole of government information sharing strategy[\u2026],\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-jocko-some-gun-laws-are-stupid\">Jocko: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/jocko-some-gun-laws-are-stupid\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"grassley-biden-admin-ending-project-thor\" title=\"Why Did Biden Defund Successful Anti-Arms Trafficking Operation?\">Some Gun Laws Are Stupid<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>He expressed concerns about the Biden administration&#8217;s current, reportedly ineffective, tactics against arms trafficking and raised questions about the agencies&#8217; commitment to dismantling cartel operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe American people deserve to know more about the Biden administration\u2019s strategy to hold all those involved, from straw purchasers to cartel members and leadership, accountable and brought to justice,\u201d&nbsp;Grassley concluded.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Agencies receiving Grassley&#8217;s letters and ATF records include the Departments of Homeland Security, Justice, and State, as well as the Drug Enforcement Administration, Customs and Border Protection, FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, U.S. Marshals Service, and U.S. Postal Inspection Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This move is part of Grassley&#8217;s broader effort to strengthen U.S. actions against violent Mexican cartels. He&#8217;s previously demanded a detailed account from ATF on Project Thor and the rationale behind its defunding, but has yet to receive a satisfactory response. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Oliva, NSSF&#8217;s managing director of public affairs, pointed out the suspect timing of this.

The ATF\u2019s Project Thor, which was successful in disrupting Mexican cartel gun smuggling, was defunded in 2021 for the following year. Mexico\u2019s lawsuit was dismissed and later revived in 2024 and now, Sen.
