The Internal Revenue Service is investigating longtime National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre for possible criminal tax fraud related to his personal taxes, according to people familiar with the matter.

In August, he was charged in a civil suit by New York Attorney General Letitia James with taking millions of dollars of allegedly undisclosed compensation from the NRA and its vendors, in the form of free yacht trips, private jet flights for his family, exotic safaris and other benefits.


This seems to be the Democratic plan now. Investigate anyone you disagree with even if it doesnt fall in your jurisdiction and then hand it over to someone at the federal level to try and make a case.

They’ve been calling me like crazy to rejoin after I rejoined for 5 years. I’m a big Second Amendment guy, but just feels like there’s more shite going on in that Org that is just taking advantage of a right that we have in the dang Constitution.

Chris Cox was the person who was the most effective there IMO. However, when you try to become king and don't succeed you are not going to remain the king's top hand

My money goes to FPC now

Weaponizing the judiciary against your political opponents is a practice as old as politics.

But, this will be easy.

Most of those benefits would likely be considered taxable compensation. Either he paid taxes on that value, or he didn't.

He's had a long enough run. Some new blood might help a lot.

The left views the NRA to gun owners, like the right views the BLM organization to the BLM movement.

Both the gun owners and the BLM movement have good things about them. Both of them have a "primary" organization that is a total joke and nothing more than theft and political hackery.

Bomb both organizations.

WLP needs to go anyway, regardless of the outcome of this.

NRA is still the biggest and most powerful 2A proponent we have, but could be much better were all the bureaucracy and corruption weeded out.

NRA needs new leadership from the top down, and it has been needed for a few years now.
