WHy is CONGRESS laying down on the job and letting a jackal gut their authority as well as the Constitution?

Pretty much this.

Is this affecting online sales primarily, as the article seems to indicate, or brick and mortar establishments as well?

It seems to effect anyone who's business purpose is firearms. There are lots of threads from proprietors of LGS's asking what company to use for CC processing as their company had dropped them or specifically stated in their policies that they didn't deal with firearms dealers. Now this is just anecdotal based on threads I've read on ar15.com by those in the business of or getting into the business of firearms.

But if the GOP can't find someone to challenge Hillary or whoever that could win....they'll have another 8 yrs of free reign more than likely. Yah Yah Yah, GOP=Dems to some of you...but we know the chance of someone everyone likes on here having a shot in hell of winning is slim to none.

I'm not worried about credit card sales online. I'm more worried about the long term consequences of gun stores going to a bank for a business start up loan and being denied due to the 'risk of the sales'.

Its a very depressing but no surprising article.

At this point I'd be surprised to find that Hillary chose to run. Just a week or so ago she vocally put her 2 cents out there on the current state of firearms in America and it was not "Pro". Voicing this before going into an election polarizes the vote in a way she could not want. She's many things but stupid isn't necessarily one of them. What she said was stupid, particularly if she intends to run for election. I'd put money on it her people are hard at work trying to figure out a rebuttal to that one just in-case she decides to run. Also, if she runs, she'll likely be impossible to beat, even with a polarized election. A Christie/Paul ticket would have been the GOP's best shot but Christie pretty much botched that one. The media won't give Paul the time of day, much like they did his father so our hopes lie with the Senate and House, which isn't saying much.

Because half of it is controlled by the jackal's primary D.C. ally.

Not only dealers, but the manufacturers as well. It affects sales AND manufacture. This is why its a huge deal.

Here's some additional commentary on the topic on the Gun Owners of America website:
