Thoughts & Prayers Open Thread: The NRA Loses

by | 111 Comments

This post is in: , ,

Per the AP [including excellent, if potentially scarifying, photo of LaPierre]:

… The judge was tasked with deciding whether the NRA should be allowed to incorporate in Texas instead of New York, where the state is suing in an effort to disband the group. Though headquartered in Virginia, the NRA was chartered as a nonprofit in New York in 1871 and is incorporated in the state.

Judge Harlin Hale said in a written order that he was dismissing the case because he found the bankruptcy was not filed in good faith.

“The Court believes the NRA’s purpose in filing bankruptcy is less like a traditional bankruptcy case in which a debtor is faced with financial difficulties or a judgment that it cannot satisfy and more like cases in which courts have found bankruptcy was filed to gain an unfair advantage in litigation or to avoid a regulatory scheme,” Hale wrote.

His decision followed 11 days of testimony and arguments. Lawyers for New York and the NRA’s former advertising agency grilled the group’s embattled top executive, Wayne LaPierre, who acknowledged putting the NRA into Chapter 11 bankruptcy without the knowledge or assent of most of its board and other top officers…

The NRA’s financial standing has been upended by the coronavirus pandemic. Last year, it laid off dozens of employees, canceled its national convention and scuttled fundraising. The NRA’s bankruptcy filing listed between $100 million and $500 million in assets and between $100 million and $500 million in liabilities. Still, the organization claimed in announcing the move that it was “in its strongest financial condition in years.”

It’s only a flesh wound!

    It’s seemed to me that news reports about this had an underlying “We can’t say the NRA’s case is bullshit, but, yeah, it’s bullshit” tone. And this result tends to confirm that feeling. There actually are laws and regulations about this sort of thing and the NRA actually has to obey them.

    Good, good. Competence matters.

    (As promised – ) A few days ago (yesterday? hard to tell these days) we were talking a little about pot laws (in the AL thread about a BBC report on ethnic Chinese working at an illegal pot growing outfit on Indian land).

    Juanita Jean:

    Try to act shocked, now, as I tell you another tale of corruption in Texas politics. Meet Todd Smith, good ole’ boy and political aide to Sid Miller. He was indicted Thursday of last week on felony theft charges. He allegedly used his credentials to tell prospective Hemp licensees that they had to pay him up to $150,000 for required surveys and paperwork and such in order to get Hemp Licenses. By spending approximately 6 hours in jail Thursday night before being released on his own “personal recognizance” he has already been punished more than any corrupt Texas Republican likely ever has. At least we have that.

    […]

    Instead, Miller appointed Rick Ray Redalin to his rural Texas Health Task Force. Redalin had contributed much more money to his campaign than Branson. Do we really want a man on our rural Texas health task force that married his 15-year-old stepdaughter? Did I forget to mention that? It’s buried way at the bottom of the Statesman article, like it’s the least slimy thing this guy has done.

    […]

    [ boggle ]

    Read the whole thing.

    Shocking, but, honestly, not surprising. As I mentioned in the previous AL thread, whenever the laws and rules aren’t uniform, and lots of money is at stake, there’s going to be corrupt people doing all kinds of skeevy things to try to get their piece of the action.

    I hope the DoJ goes after the lot of them.

    [sigh]

    Scott.

    Jeff Flake kinda sorta firing for effect here (Jeff where was this speech when you were in the Senate, or even as you were on the way out the door?)

    On Wednesday, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) will most likely lose her leadership post within the House Republican Conference, not because she has been untruthful. Rather, she will lose her position because she is refusing to play her assigned role in propagating the “big lie” that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump. Cheney is more dedicated to the long-term health of our constitutional system than she is to assuaging the former president’s shattered ego, and for her integrity she may well pay with her career.

    No, this is not the plot of a movie set in an asylum. Ladies and gentlemen, this is your contemporary Republican Party, where today there is no greater offense than honesty.

    It seems a good time to examine how we got to a place where such a large swath of the electorate (70 percent of Republican voters, according to polling) became willing to reject a truth that is so self-evident.

    This allergy to self-evident truth didn’t happen all at once, of course. This frog has been boiling for some time now. The Trump period in American life has been a celebration of the unwise and the untrue. From the ugly tolerance of the pernicious falsehood about President Barack Obama’s place of birth to the bizarre and fanatical fable about the size of inauguration crowds, to the introduction of the term “alternative facts” into the American lexicon, the party’s steady embrace of dishonesty as a central premise has brought us to this low and dangerous place.

    …When I became an unwitting dissident in my party by speaking in defense of self-evident truths, I assumed that more and more of my colleagues would follow me. I remain astonished that so few did. Congresswoman Cheney, I know how alone you must be feeling. But just know that history keeps the score, not Kevin McCarthy or Elise Stefanik.

    @Frank Wilhoit:

    Isn’t there a competing organization standing ready to sop up all the members?

    There are several. Adam Silverman would know the list a lot better than me.

    I’m a bit familiar with Gun Owners of America. It’d be my guess they are waiting eagerly to pick at the remains of the NRA.

    Keep in mind, GOA and other gun lobby groups view the NRA as a bunch of liberal squishes, who do not fight hard enough for gun rights.

    The GOA founder Larry Pratt has ties to white supremacist groups.

    Basically, the current NRA is the high watermark for rational, well thought pro-gun arguments against gun control in this country from gun lobby groups.

    The real issue is how many members does the NRA really have? How many will pay dues to another organization?

    If the NRA’s membership count is overstated, the existing groups may not get enough members or money to be the lobbying force the NRA has been for 40 years.

    Secondly, before the NRA went into right-wing politics, they had a 100 year history of being rational on gun control.

    None of these groups have that going for them. None of them have a patina of credibility that opponents have to chip away at. They have been radical from the get go, which should hopefully help counter whatever lobbying muscle they might pickup.

    I think the NRA’s troubles helped us beat Trump:

    But the NRA’s investment, which was more than any other outside group, paid for a slew of ads that directly targeted the same voters who propelled Trump to victory. The organization’s radio and television spots sought to cast Hillary Clinton and the Democratic rivals of its preferred Senate candidates as an existential threat to the Second Amendment, and national security. It is a message that resonates in the gun belt, a swath of primarily Southern and Midwestern states where Trump achieved some of his most consequential victories.
    In October alone, according to the Center for Public Integrity, roughly one out of every 20 television ads in Pennsylvania was sponsored by the NRA. That same month, the group paid for one in nine ads in North Carolina, and one of every eight in Ohio. The ads imply that Clinton and Democrats would leave law-and-order abiding citizens defenseless. In one spot, a woman is alone in bed when a burglar breaks into her home. The narrator intones, “Don’t let Hillary leave you protected with nothing but a phone.”

    The gun nutters weren’t as riled up as they usually are because Wayne spent all their money on chartering planes and caviar. It’s great.

    I guess what I’m asking is how this all works?

    There’s no law against a 501(c)3 nonprofit getting money from foreign nationals, which the NRA is. The 501(c)3 designation applies to the NRA, a local youth center, and many other nonprofits.

    501(c)3’s are prohibited from actually engaging in any political support or lobbying legislators or other government entities.

    The NRA operates a separate 501(c)4* lobbying organization. 501(c)4 organizations are not-for-profit as well, but exist to engage in lobbying, political advocacy of issues, support candidates, etc.

    Rules governing foreign contributions to support candidates would cover the 501(c)4 entity, which is where the NRA could be in real jeopardy, if they used Russian money to support candidates.

    As far as learning anything from their books, it depends on how much time and money someone is willing to spend sorting through it, as well as how well the NRA kept its books.

    Nonprofits in the USA, like the NRA, have to disclose their financial records to the public. They file form 990, with the IRS, which is an information return that lists revenue, sources of revenue, large donors, compensation of officers, board of directors, how much went to different aspects of the nonprofits mission like fundraising, core programs, staff salaries, etc.

    From what I have been reading the NRA did not do a good job in keeping its books in an honest manner, therefore tracking how much, if any, Russian money was used for campaigns is either going to be difficult because of poor record keeping or incredibly easy, because Wayne and the boys are too arrogant to cover their tracks.

    I’m not holding my breath that any big revelation will come out about the Russia money, unless the federal government jumps into this investigation

    That spread of 27 percentage points represents the widest approval margin in an A.P./NORC poll since Mr. Biden took office.

    The president continued to receive broadly positive marks for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, with seven in 10 respondents expressing approval. His approach to health care policy got a thumbs-up from 62 percent of Americans, and 54 percent approved of his work on foreign policy.

    Fifty-seven percent of Americans said they approved of the job he was doing on the economy.

    BoJo really is just another Republican.

    The government plans to pass a law requiring people to show an approved form of identification in order to vote.

    It would mean people need identification to vote in a polling station, as is already the case in Northern Ireland, where photo ID is required. The government says this would “tackle electoral fraud” and give voters “confidence that their vote is theirs, and theirs alone”.

    It plans to extend this to elections in the whole of the UK and is talking to devolved governments about extending it to assembly elections in Scotland and Wales.

    How much electoral fraud is there?There a re very few complaints about electoral fraud in the UK – and even fewer convictions.

    In 2019, there were:
    -about 47 million people registered to vote in general elections
    -just 33 allegations of “personation” – the offence of pretending to be somebody else to vote
    -one conviction – a man in West Yorkshire who admitted voting once in his own name and once in his son’s in the European Parliament election
    -one caution

    The NRA’s bankruptcy filing listed between $100 million and $500 million in assets and between $100 million and $500 million in liabilities.

    @Tony Jay:

    I’m pretty sure this issue has come up before, when everyone found out the NRA got millions of dollars from the Russians. I think the NRA’s defense was that they did not co-mingle the funds from Russia with money going to campaigning. 

    If they did co-mingle funds from the Russians with their campaign funds, it was done in a manner that’s not glaringly obvious.

    I think a more likely scenario is the Russian money subsidized their 501(c)3 operation, so their domestic fundraising could be almost entirely shifted to the 501(c)4 campaign arm for the 2016 election.

    Kent State resulted from exhausted national guard (part timers) coming off protecting overpasses from Teamster terrorists.  They were not physically or mentally prepared, or rested.

    It was almost designed to fail.

    I was (almost) there.  Class of ’70 in Ohio.  I knew students at Kent.  We were blown away.

    For you young’uns, that was THE breaking point for many.  And then the effing 70’s were worse, with  Nissinger and Kixon (maybe I’m confused) confirming every prejudice.

    I still try to fight the fight.  It is a bit tedious, though.
