New York AG seeks to dissolve NRA in new lawsuit

Well well. Intriguing.

She successfully dissolved the Trump Foundation already. The writing is on the wall.

I agree with Broly here. The NRA is too big and too well connected to be dissolved. At best they'll be fined for their corruption and then they go about business as usual, just being more careful in hiding their corruption.

It would be absolutely wonderful if this AG succeeded though. Take that rotten to the core organization down.

That is the impression people get because of their outsized influence. They have actually been struggling for a number of years, and this will probably be the nail in their coffin.

Fair enough if true. I'm still highly skeptical and will not believe it until it actually happens. I will thank god when/if it happens though.

And it seems there is a bias cuz in announcing it she even references the trump foundation.

Really?

Could have sworn I read she did, but I can't find it.

I am finding stuff about how the NRA was set to pump a lot of money into Trumps reelection.

This seems political.

Yep, she was flat out lying and it's wrong

Nope; not my meaning. But you be you.

Yeah, I know you know they aren't a terrorist organization. You're just trying to troll.

The NRA needs to be sued into oblivion. Let it begin.

In the immediate aftermath of the Columbine High School massacre in April 1999, the leaders of the National Rifle Association gathered on a conference call to discuss damage control and their upcoming conference in Denver, set to take place just miles away, and days after the deadly shooting.

NPR obtained tapes of that call and revealed their contents on Tuesday in a bombshell report. On the tapes, senior leaders at the NRA can be heard describing their most loyal and activist members as "hillbillies" and "fruitcakes" that the organization needed to be guarded against.

Thirteen people lay dead at a high school in Colorado. More than 20 were injured. Images of students running from the school were looped on TV. The NRA strategists on the call sounded shaken and panicked as they pondered their next step into what would become an era of routine and horrific mass school shootings.

"Everything we do here has a downside," NRA official Kayne Robinson says on the tapes. "Don't anybody kid yourself about this great macho thing of going down there and showing our chest and showing how damn tough we are. We are in deep shit on this deal. And so anything we do here is going to be a matter of trying to decide the best of a whole bunch of very, very bad choices."

But the rest just shows how the NRA is aware of the gun problem, but publicly wants to pretend there isn't a problem.

The National Rifle Association, defender of gun-loving maniacs everywhere, has confirmed that it did, in fact, get hacked by cybercriminals last year.

On Friday, the organization's political action committee submitted a filing to the Federal Election Commission confirming the attack. The PAC made the filing to the FEC in an effort to explain a recent financial discrepancy.

A ransomware gang calling itself "Grief" bragged to the digital underworld last October about compromising the gun lobby's servers and stealing sensitive internal documents.

The National Rifle Association keeps shrinking. Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre told attendees at the gun-rights group's most recent board meeting that the organization is down more than a million members since allegations of financial impropriety were leveled against LaPierre and other members of NRA leadership in 2019. The NRA is now smaller than it has been since 2012.

The drop in membership has driven a stark decline in the NRA's revenue. As a membership organization, the revenue of the NRA comes from membership dues. Losing over a million members has caused revenue to drop 32% resulting in an $11M budget shortfall for the organization. This shortfall is after the NRA took out a $23M line of credit to cover the lost revenue.

Accounting for the lost revenue and the outstanding line of credit, the budget shortfall is actually closer to 52-percent. Meaning the organization is facing revenue collapse.

That's excellent news.

Now if the NY AG can send LaPierre and the other higher up NRA criminals to prison, even better,
