Just throwing this in the mix.
Not sure what AG James has to do with NRA, but not impossible to believe it flows through NY channels somehow.
I'm hoping it is the Trump Crime Family, but the Kremlin/GOP matter would be welcome as well.
Nonetheless, it's all mob connected & Trump's in it somewhere.
Soon...soon.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - New Yorks financial regulator on Wednesday filed civil charges accusing the National Rifle Association of offering insurance to its members without a license and concealing how it routinely kept some of their premiums for itself.

(16,616 posts)So the financial regulator goes after the NRA for how it misused funds and screwed over its members, and the AG is looking at bigger fish, like how Russia funneled money to the NRA which it turned around and donated to the Trump campaign? Maybe we'll finally get to hear something about Alfa Bank, after all these years of mystery.
Just pure speculation.

(7,386 posts)This being about the NRA makes sense. And it'll be serious, or they would just make a press release.

(15,325 posts)Kinda bugs me that he ended up with the Trump financials case. He did let the Trump kids off scott free in a previous case & that makes him suspicious in handling of such a damning case as Trump/Deutsch .
I wish it were someone other than Vance.

(35,454 posts)he ran unopposed but there was a campaign for people to write in a different candidate. Many, many NYers fed up with him. It wasn't just the trumps, it was weinstein, strauss-kahn and a lot of other cases.

(15,325 posts)Dammit.
Vance is corrupt.

(35,454 posts)why isn't the NRA filing a criminal case?

FBI looking at Manhattan district attorney's office over potential undue influence in handling of cases: sources
The Manhattan Democratic DA failed to bring criminal charges against two of President Trumps children in an alleged real estate scam. DA Cy Vance, Jr. is the son of the late former Secretary of State Cyrus Vance under Jimmy Carter.

Good research for 2018...
I hope he has a challenger the next time around. I was really incensed when he didn't believe the maid and let Strauss-Kahn go because he was so well connected and then the French arrested him for running a global prostitiion ring.
