#BREAKING: We are suing the NRA Foundation for misusing charitable funds.
Donors gave money to fund firearms safety, firearms education and marksmanship training. Instead, that money was diverted to support wasteful spending by the NRA and its executives: https://bit.ly/33EzTax

We allege that the NRA Foundation broke DC law by:
- Placing interests of NRA above its own
- Paying millions in fees to the NRA without oversight
- Issuing millions in risky loans to the NRA ($5mil that the NRA never repaid)Link to tweet

I sure hope Wayne LaPierre didn't spend all his money on clothes; he's gonna need some to pay a few fines and back taxes.

(12,207 posts)5. Small challenge to the o.p. Originally, N.R.A. was for gun safety and marksmanship and stuff.
I would suspect that since Ronnie, the dues were given to protect guns from Libs. The rest of the funding came from manufacturers to have N.R.A. gin up that fear about taking away guns so that suckers would buy more guns. Then they would be better armed when those aforementioned Libs come to take their guns.
You need more guns will protect the guns you already have.
