Woah--most effed up thing about Mel Gibson story isn't even the senior DOJ official demanding special favors for Gibson because he's a friend of Trump's. It's that Gibson wants a gun because Trump appointed him an "ambassador" to Hollywood.

Also: the lawyer worked long and hard to find people who'd long completed their sentence, applied through channels, and weren't deemed a threat: 95 names. The Trumpies arbitrarily tossed out nearly all, leaving only 9 - then they added Gibson, who didn't qualify on several grounds.
The Trumpies yelled at her to sign a piece of paper falsely saying she'd considered Gibson's application and recommended him. She hadn't seen any application, or any records! And he probably wouldn't qualify! She told them she wouldn't recommend Gibson, go do it without her help - so they fired her.
Mel: "B/c this crazy mofo with terrible judgement & violent tendencies made me a nepo hire, I, crazy mofo with terrible judgement & violent tendencies, want guns again."
