We’re all Russians now
God, Guns and Mother Russia
You could power New York State with the power generated from McCarthy spinning in his grave.
If he were alive he would actually be finding Russian agents under every rock

With any luck, the kids’ characterization of gun money as “blood money” and their labeling NRA as the 21st Century’s Scarlet Letters is going to stick.
Personally, I think it will. Through social media, of which they are masters, they are going to bury these motherfuckers.
Remember when everyone would joke “If you need to fix your computer, call a senior citizen”? Yeah, me neither.

Cambridge Analytica sending staff to the US to help Republicans
Roger Stone knowing in advance of who was going to be impacted by hacked Democratic emails
NRA suddenly getting major donations from Russians and sudden Russian interest in the NRA (when Russia’s own gun laws would drive NRA members crazy.)
I have said it many times and for many months…when the investigation is concluded, it is going to show that the Russians weren’t just running troll farms to help Donnie…they were actively laundering large amounts of money to help him and Republicans win the election. Thank GOD for Christopher Wylie and his willingness to speak out when he saw what his company had done in electing Trump.
Let us pray that the UK finally wakes up and recognizes that Brexit produced an illegal vote result and calls that election a travesty. At a minmum, it should hold a re-vote. Better yet it should trash the whole thing.
Everything and everybody in the Trump organization it seems signed up for one reason…power and self enrichment…but hey…that’s the GOP platform.

It’s what they do
The primary mission is to destabilize the west to help break up NATO and cause Mayhem just like the commercial.
A weak democracy plays right into their strengths, and from what I see Trump , the NRA and Republicans are helping them Bigly

Besides, you can bet your bippy that they’ll come up with some reason this being a private organization accepting private money is tooooootally different than taxes going to the gov’t. Remember what Jesus said: “Render unto Caesar his due, but that’s still your money and your payment of it was an act of religious worship, so you get to tell Caesar what it’s spent on, and if he pends it on things you don’t like, that’s religious persecution.” I swear to meatballs, these fuckers think being more “christ like” includes trying to make everything into their own martyrdom,.

There’s no reason to repeal the 2nd and that’s never going to happen. What we need to do is READ it.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The introductory clause in those 27 words makes the subject of the Amendment clear: A militia ( a well regulated one ) not guns. There’s nothing in the Second that allows anyone to do anything with a gun. There’s nothing about standing your ground or open carry. Nothing that could be construed as a Constitutional basis for allowing those things. All that is gun nuttery. The 2nd Amendment is something else.

I never thought I would live to see a GOPer right wing gun group like the NRA taking money from Mother Russia and donating that money to politicians. Whatever happened to the “57 card carrying commies in the State Department”? (See Manchurian Candidate)

The NRA is a slush fund for foreign money used to influence our elections. Can the NRA be shut down?

While I’m sure the NRA employes good lawyers and accountants the deliberate vagueness of their answer ought to speak volumes. I’d wager good money a forensic accounting investigation of the groups donors would tie them to several governments if not actual quasi terrorist organizations.

It’s also what makes Racketeering cases work. The NRA’s kinda screwed on this if someone pushes hard enough.
Let’s hope they do.
