NRA Bankruptcy Hearing Exposes Lavish Spending and Russian Expenditures

NRA Bankruptcy Hearing Exposes Lavish Spending and Russian Expenditures: Those following the bankruptcy case of the National Rifle Association (NRA), know that the hearing has already produced scores of embarrassing revelations about lavish spending, such as providing chief executive Wayne LaPierre with a 108-foot luxury yacht and a brand new $6.5 million mansion for his “personal security” after the Parkland, Florida killings. Now, it’s also been disclosed that a law firm sent NRA Secretary and General Counsel John Frazer's office a mysterious invoice in 2020 for $59,155.25 - which was simply labeled as “Russia.”

Gee whiz, so if I’m understanding all this correctly, NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre is basically saying that “the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun, is by providing a millionaire NRA executive with a huge mansion and a 108-foot luxury yacht.” Interesting concept! Now, I’m not sure that makes a whole lot of sense, but then again - I’ve never been all that good with math.

That said, who knew LaPierre was living in so much fear after he mockingly dismissed those Parkland families, that he needed to move onto a luxury yacht as well as a huge mansion - just to ensure his safety? I mean, what a damn shame no one ever bothered to give him the number of one of those “good guys with a gun,” who could have protected him.

Now, if Wayne LaPierre really was under such threats, you’d assume he might have had a little sympathy for what parents of those murdered children were going through when NRA members were threatening them for simply demanding an end to this senseless gun violence. Of course, given that it’s Wayne LaPierre and the NRA - I seriously doubt it.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War: In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.” You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!” In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence. They don’t teach you that in law school. Now, is it jus...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.” Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know. After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu. Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...

Elon Musk Calls for the Prosecution of Anthony Fauci

Over the weekend, Elon Musk took to his Twitter account to call for the prosecution of infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, endorsing a convoluted, right-wing conspiracy theory that claims Dr. Fauci financed the COVID-19 pandemic. Musk then proceeded to mock transgender people by adding “My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci.” Gee, the “world’s richest right-wing troll” said what? Now, I realize it's a really low bar, but I think we’ve finally found someone who actually knows less about pronouns - than Herschel Walker. Not to be critical, but a good sign you may have a wee bit too much money on your hands, is when you blow 44 billion dollars, just to call people names. Oh sure, I’m positive Elon Musk, like any right-wing crusader, gets a real kick out of using his Twitter to “Own the Libs.” OK, I get that, but just who does he suppose is actually buying his friggin' cars, anyway? I’m pretty sure it isn’t Trump’s toothless, MAGA half-wits who are fillin...
