Let’s See If Lefties Think the Brady Campaign is “Above the Law”

This is a product that’s available from Amazon. It ships from China. Just saying.

“No one is above the law,” they bleat, until one of their own gets caught …

This is one of those blink-and-you-missed-it stories that almost went under the radar, largely because it involves a lawsuit against the NRA from one of its former presidents. Said president is now claiming that the Brady Campaign tried to bribe her to stop working for the NRA, to the tune of an eye-watering $5 million dollars. Do we need to tell you that this isn’t legal for a nonprofit?

Here’s a better question: Do we need to ask you if you believe it?

At this stage of the game, we have no established facts, just allegations. But as President Trump’s DOGE department tears through the USAID records, we’re learning that what used to be our wildest conspiracy theories are now proven conspiracy facts. It is a fact that our taxpayer dollars were used to fund groups that directly oppose the United States Constitution. It is a fact that anti-gunners used USAID to enrich themselves and their families. And finally, it is a fact that if there’s a news item that makes Democrats or their pet causes look bad, the legacy media will ignore the story.

Well, they’ll ignore it until they can’t anymore. And then they’ll sniffily inform us that the story isn’t what we think it is. Then they’ll smugly state that it is true, and here’s why that’s a good thing. Then they’ll write a book congratulating themselves for their honesty.

Wouldn’t it be amusing if the Internal Revenue Service had itself a nice peek into the Brady Campaign’s records? Wouldn’t it be a fun show if some prosecutor gave the Brady Campaign the same treatment Letitia James gave the NRA? (Oh, how is Big Tish doing these days? Indicted for having done exactly the same thing she accused Trump of, mortgage fraud?)

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms thinks so, too. What do you think?

CCRKBA SAYS IRS SHOULD PROBE BRADY GROUP’S ALLEGED OFFER TO MARION HAMMER

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is calling for an IRS investigation into a startling allegation made by former NRA President and Second Amendment champion Marion Hammer in a federal lawsuit in which she says an attorney representing the Brady gun control group allegedly offered her $5 million to “retire and cease advancing the interests of the NRA and defending the Second Amendment.”

The allegation says the offer was made in 2018. According to language in the lawsuit, Hammer immediately reported the offer to then-Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre.

“This is not the kind of offer a tax exempt organization should be making under any circumstances,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “First and foremost, nobody’s First Amendment rights should ever be for sale, and secondly, the nature of this allegation almost appears as though the gun control group was offering Mrs. Hammer a bribe to walk away from an issue to which she had dedicated most of her adult life.”

Hammer’s legal action involves an apparent contract dispute between her and the NRA.

“We have absolutely no interest in, nor are we taking any position on, Mrs. Hammer’s lawsuit,” Gottlieb stated. “Our sole interest is in this apparent attempt by a wealthy gun prohibition lobbying organization to essentially silence one of the nation’s most respected and effective voices in support of Second Amendment rights.

“I am sure,” he observed, “that when the Brady Center applied for tax exempt status, this is not an activity they listed on their application, as I doubt it would qualify as a tax exempt function.

“A claim of this nature, especially in a federal lawsuit, absolutely deserves some investigation,” Gottlieb said. “While it appears no money ever exchanged hands, the idea such an offer was even made raises serious questions about what the gun control lobby does with its money, and whether this sort of thing is acceptable under tax exempt guidelines.”
