which is impossible, but I'm positive he didn't want the Russian rubles removed from the NRA's bank accounts. LaPierre is one of the biggest shit weasels on the planet.

He is thinking about that and all the possibilities


And she seems to be thinking "wait till he finds out that the third partner is Putin".

in the lawmakers section they clearly made it known that they were fighting any kind of state and federal bills requiring registration of firearms, they also had pull in government at the time as many bills were introduced to protect gun rights. They have been doing this a long time.

when the NRA was supporting gun control legislation - and I think it had to do with that photograph of the Black Panthers with firearms. OOH! The scary black people!

But they used to be strongly focused on gun safety, not just on supporting and increasing the profits of the gun manufacturers.

or shills for manufacturers. And looking at some of the bills they were fighting for were like keeping bb guns from being registered which we had to do in MI for years. Both sides can go overboard if left unchecked so there was a time when the NRA was needed. Too bad they have gone nuts, anti-American putin shills.

Just a devilish thought. How would this picture find its way to facebook under the name National Russian Association.

How can they explain their spike in election donations in '16, then almost nothing in the '18 elections?

Yes, that really is Maria Butina standing with Wayne LaPierre.

Wayne LaPierre must have a close relationship with Maria Butina.

Did Maria Butina help funnel money through Wayne LaPierre's NRA, to fix the election towards Donald Trump and the Republicans? I believe it's true that she did.

I fired up every browser I own -- Google, Edge, IE11 and Firefox -- and ran an Images search for "NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre with Russian agent Maria Butina" on every one of them. Then I clicked through to the source article.


That helps counter any attempts to bury the association.

I think he's annoyed there's a white duck in the picture behind him, still standing.
