A Manhattan jury ruled yesterday that the leaders of the National Rifle Association (NRA) had engaged in a yearslong pattern of financial misconduct and corruption.
The case, brought by New York’s attorney general, Letitia James, touched the uppermost echelons of the gun-rights group. In addition to the group’s former leader, Wayne LaPierre, the defendants included the group’s former treasurer, Wilson Phillips, and its general counsel, John Frazer, who still works for the group. The NRA itself was also a defendant, and was found to have ignored whistle-blower complaints and submitted false filings to the state.
Even if one just followed this these circumstances on its borders, the arguments made by the NRA in this case were nonsensical word salads.
Claiming the victim and abuse of trust [sound at ALL familiar?!!] when it’s the leadership was engaging in illegal activity; it’s the height of hypocrisy and entitlement. BOTH of which must be needed in large measure to keep a straight face while suggesting that arming teachers will make our schools safer.
What is this FIXATION with conservatives throwing $$$ at people who are obvious frauds?!! Trump, Lindell, NRA, Giuliani, RNC….?!!!!?
The old Lobsterman thinks he may have the answer: they enjoy being humiliated!!!!!!!!!!!!!
