LaPierre Squandered Millions While Neglecting Gun Rights
From Ammoland:
Former CEO of the NRA, Wayne LaPierre, has finally admitted virtually everything that he’s been accused of over the past five years, and a jury has found him liable for padding his own pockets to the tune of $5.5 million.
LaPierre’s hand-picked Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, Woody Phillips was also found liable for $2 million in personal profit at NRA members’ expense, and the NRA itself (really the NRA’s current Board of Directors) was found to have failed in its fiduciary obligations to shepherd and safeguard the members’ assets. Keep in mind that none of this really takes into account the millions paid to “consultants” with nothing of substance to show for it, or the hundreds of millions spent on lawyers and the losses in membership and revenue over the past five years.
NRA Reform
From The Truth About Guns:
As a firearms instructor, I want to share my ideas for the reform the NRA needs as it heads into a trial its leadership will NOT win. The court will order that the organization be rebuilt, but if we don’t make it clear what’s really needed, we won’t get the results we need.
LaPierre Finally Steps Down After Years of Corruption Investigations
From The Truth About Guns:
Today the National Rifle Association publicly announced that long-time Executive Vice-President Wayne LaPierre will formally step down from his leadership position at the end of January. The embattled leader has faced all manner of criticism for a number of years which has culminated in a civil corruption trial that starts Monday in Manhattan.
The ATF Must Go
From Bearing Arms:
Calls for the reform or abolishment of the ATF grow louder and louder. Just last week, an article published by the Second Amendment Foundation makes the case for undoing the damage done by the Biden Administration. It’s a roadmap for the next president, but not one that will alter the current course of the ATF or stop future abuses. And while I’m on board with undoing Biden’s dirty work, I don’t think it’s enough. It’s my view that undoing the years of Biden Administration overreach and utter disdain for the Constitutional rights of American citizens will not be enough. The ATF, as it is currently defined, has got to go.
A Proposal To Save The NRA
From Ammoland:
The NRA needs Directors who are willing to ask tough questions, challenge the status quo, and stand up for the membership. We need Directors with integrity and conviction, not Yes-men and sycophants. We need Directors who understand business and finance, as well as understand and unflinchingly support the core principles of the Second Amendment right to arms.
If you or someone you know fits the bill, you or they are desperately needed right now. We only have until November 7, 2023, to collect about 500 valid signatures from Voting Members of the Association for each person we want nominated. Voting Members are Annual Members who have been members for at least five consecutive years and Life Members. You will need to know your NRA Member ID number as well to complete the form.
Regular Americans Are Being Radicalized By The Actions of The Elites
From The Federalist:
The echelons of power within the government, the media, and throughout society appear to be wittingly or unwittingly nurturing the seeds of another Timothy McVeigh as they continue to target their political opponents. They are crafting the playbook for the very forces they claim to counter.
Article III Project Statement About FBI Destroying Clinton Foundation Investigation Docs
From The Article III Project:
“The FBI knew then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had an illegal home server with America’s most classified secrets, almost certainly hacked by our worst enemies. The FBI also knew Hillary’s illegal home server contained evidence of the Clinton Foundation’s illegal pay-for-play bribery schemes. The FBI knew Hillary obstructed justice by destroying this server in the face of a congressional subpoena.
“So what did the FBI do? The FBI destroyed the remaining evidence. And the FBI colluded with 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, President Obama, Vice President Biden, the Obama Attorney General, the Obama CIA director, and others to launch the baseless Russian collusion hoax against presidential candidate Donald Trump. The resulting bogus Crossfire Hurricane investigation led to 3 years of hobbling the Trump presidency.
Wayne LaPierre Killed The NRA
From Ammoland:
This once great organization is now facing dissolution as the direct result of malfeasance by Wayne LaPierre and the impotent Board of Directors (BOD). Undoubtedly, key management personnel, including Wayne Lapierre, Wilson Phillips, and others, will likely face criminal charges for embezzlement, fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, and other charges.
Gun Control Groups Pressured CDC To Remove Data
From The Reload:
The Centers For Disease Control (CDC) deleted a reference to a study it commissioned after a group of gun-control advocates complained it made passing new restrictions more difficult.
The lobbying campaign spanned months and culminated with a private meeting between CDC officials and three advocates last summer, a collection of emails obtained by The Reload show. Introductions from the White House and Senator Dick Durbin’s (D., Ill.) office helped the advocates reach top officials at the agency after their initial attempt to reach out went unanswered. The advocates focused their complaints on the CDC’s description of its review of studies that estimated defensive gun uses (DGU) happen between 60,000 and 2.5 million times per year in the United States–attacking criminologist Gary Kleck’s work establishing the top end of the range.
Rioter/Lawyer Who Firebombed Car in 2020 Riots Gets 15 Months
From The Post Millennial:
The lawyer who made headlines when she firebombed an NYPD cruiser during the 2020 George Floyd riots on Friday was sentenced to just 15 months in prison after the Biden administration pressed the court to go below the guidelines that recommended 10 years for such a crime.
FBI Lies To Commit Biggest Bank Heist In History
From The Federalist:
There is no denying anymore that our federal agencies have weaponized their power against the political adversaries of the left. But if you think the feds’ abandonment of all standards only affects outspoken critics of the regime, think again. More allegations of FBI corruption and hubris are coming to light after a lawsuit last week revealed FBI agents misled a judge so they could illegally seize and withhold property from innocent American citizens.
