NRA looking to be dissolved due to fraud by NY Attorney General

In her lawsuit, Attorney General Letitia James called for the dissolution of the NRA and the removal of CEO Wayne LaPierre from the leadership post he has held for the past 39 years, saying he and others used the group’s funds to finance a luxury lifestyle.

 

She also asked a New York court to force LaPierre and three key deputies to repay NRA members for the ill-gotten funds and inflated salaries that her investigation found they took.

 

James accused the NRA leaders of flouting state and federal laws and signing off on reports and statements they knew were fraudulent, while diverting millions of dollars away from the NRA’s charitable mission to benefit themselves and their allies.

Before leaving for Ohio, Trump said he had “just heard” about the New York attorney general’s lawsuit against the NRA, according to a White House pool report.

 

The president described the lawsuit as a “terrible thing” and repeatedly suggested the gun rights group should “move to Texas and lead a ... beautiful life” there.

 

As he seeks reelection, Trump has repeatedly described himself as a champion for gun rights, and the NRA officially endorsed his relection bid last month.
