Time to drain the NRA Swamp?

[ArcadiaGP]

.

If you were at the NRA Annual Meeting, you were greeted with giant pictures of Wayne LaPierre, Dana Loesch, Cam Edwards, Colion Noir, Chris Cox, and Grant Stinchfield hanging on the convention floor. Now, two months later, only Wayne LaPierre remains at the organization.

The New York Times has an article that states Chris Cox has resigned, and that NRATV has been shut down.

NPR ran a story last night, and this morning.

Ugh.

Kudos for what’s he’s done in support of the 2nd, but Wayne has got to go. No different then pulling the qb who can no longer lead the offense.

So WLP is gonna take a knee and become a MSM darling?

Dem debate............at least one claimed the NRA on the ropes and can be taken down.

they name the NRA as one of the debate winners for controlling the gun control narrative.

So who replaces Chris Cox? Glen Caroline (NRA-ILA Grassroots Director) comes to mind for no other reason than I've met him and my POC works for him. He's from Baston and wouldn't admit Bill Belichick is Satan. On the other hand he's big on working with groups like Students for Concealed Carry and Turning Point USA on 2A issues; also State-level action.

Those do not sound like jobs for the top lobbyist.

It sounds like jobs for people who can manage, coordinate and organize. Leads the team of lobbyists, lawyers, and activists?

 

[Trigger Time]

When is Wayne LaPierre gonna get fired? Obviously he thinks too much of himself to step down for the good of the NRA. Everyday they are losing more and more support from big names in the firearms community. At this point the only ones I imagine that want to see him stay are either making money with him under the table, or people who are oblivious to what is happening and the scandals he is behind.

When it came to draining the NRA swamp... I wasn't expecting to lose Dana/Noir/et al instead of the actual ****ty people.

Makes one wonder if this is the good time to be bailing on the NRA and talking about our only real defense against the anti-gun libs?

If the enemy knows anything, they know how to exploit weakness. Are we happy to be feeding them?

Multiple NRATV sources tell Stephen Gutowski the staff was informed today they were being placed on a sort of unpaid leave. They won't receive pay or severance at this point and their insurance has been canceled. They were given 21 days to sign an NDA in order to reactivate their insurance.

Severalhere would love the NRA to crash the reef. NDA’s sounds like Wayne is in cover mode?

 

[rarobertson33]

The NRA seems like it had changed from years previous, and are just getting stubborn. In my opinion, I am not sure they are rowing in the right direction and that all their oar's are actually in the water working together!

Ackerman has given Gutowski a statement on today's announcement that NRATV staff would be put on unpaid leave. They don't address that or the agreement they asked them to sign. They do say the NRA owes them money, though.

Unfortunately the board has no real power to toss his ass out.
