NRA Statement on Politically Motivated Senate Finance Report

Fairfax, VA – -(Ammoland.com)-

The National Rifle Association released the following statements on Friday regarding the politically motivated report issued by Democrats in the Senate Finance Committee:

William A. Brewer III, counsel to the NRA: “This report promotes a politically motivated and contrived narrative. An avalanche of proof confirms that the NRA, as an organization, was never involved in the activities about which the Democrats write. This report goes to great lengths to try to involve the NRA in activities of private individuals and create the false impression that the NRA did not act appropriately. Nothing could be further from the truth. As noted by the committee Republicans in their rebuttal, this report is a transparent effort to justify yet another ‘fishing expedition’ into the NRA.”

Andrew Arulanandam, NRA managing director of Public Affairs, speaking of a 2015 trip to Russia: “Certain NRA members made the trip of their own accord. The record reflects it was not an official NRA trip. NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre was opposed to it and, at his directive, no NRA staff members or employees attended.”

I’m pissed that I gave so much money to people that are just as corrupt as the politicians they are supposed to be fighting for our rights. I used to be proud to be a member, sad…

Meanwhile, the damage control by the NRA’s inner circle has started and they are ready to throw one of their own under the bus: https://onlygunsandmoney.com/2019/09/27/someone-is-going-under-the-bus.html Did Wayne approved the expenses (which the NRA’s e-mails show) or was Millie Hallow lying about that (which is what the NRA’s Democrat lawyer says)? In any case, sexual predator Josh Powell (NRA Chief of Staff) seems to be eager now to throw convicted felon Millie Hallow (closest LaPierre aid) under the bus. What are the chances of either of them seeking an immunity deal with the NY State AG? Yes, folks, this is your… Read more »

I belong to NRA, GOA, TSRA. and I support 2A without burning anything down. We need all the help we can get to save our Constitution. Do you think the looney Dems will do that if they win? Why not support anyone that makes an attempt to help. NRA gets Trump’s ear. That’s the REAL POINT! GROW GOA & SAVE NRA!

@CGGator Foxtrot, I have signed the petition. I would cut the number of board members even more. Why is this stuff not on FOX?

@wjd, I do agree that WLP and cronies have badly damaged it, but it is not on the “do not resuscitate” list just yet. The power of almost 5 million members is nothing to sneeze at, but it is blatantly obvious there must be a new captain and crew – and a location in a state that would be proud to have our headquarters. I think all of this will come, but it will take some time. In the mean time, we must let the gun control issue die down in the news until after a successful election. One idea… Read more »

Gun owners should be burning the NRA to the ground right now as a warning to other gun groups as to what will happen if they become corrupt. And they should do it quickly before the anti-2a side does it.
