    It is political. On the other hand, if you know you are a political target you might want to conduct yourself accordingly. Avoid all appearance...

    We will see how all this shakes out.

      Yeah, it’s political. And yeah, it’s a fraudulent organization that grossly misuses funds. This isn’t a question of appearances.

      Like I said, they’re both right.

        Before I make that judgement I'd like to see details. I admit that is how it appears, but that does not mean there is nothing else in play. To conduct themselves that way would be very foolish, but it could be immense hubris and a sense of untouchability.

              Much like the current fishing expedition on Trump's tax returns, this is an ill wind that does not bode well for anybody. A justice department of any kind, should be as apolitical as possible.

                  I almost agree. The reason I voted against this lady in the primary, I mean besides a general desire to perpetuate the white patriarchy, was her explicit promise to go after political enemies.

                  Having said that, the NRA’s financial shenanigans have been so publicized by infighting and internecine lawsuits that to not investigate would be a political decision.

                    The NRA is a mess. LaPierre was in the top spot too long and did what most men do, became too full of himself.

                    But it's a matter for the members, not the NY AG.

                      No, they’ve crossed too many legal lines.

                      Take politics out of it altogether. If major donors were suing, say, the American Heart Association for fraud and misuse of funds, highlighting tens of millions of dollars of inappropriate payments, self-dealing, etc. any AG in the country who’s state it was in would investigate.

                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
