No "LIBRULS" involved in this chicanery NRA

-The gun rights group placed multimillion-dollar bets on Donald Trump and six Republican Senate candidates locked in highly competitive races. It poured $50.2 million, or 96 percent of its total outside spending, into these races, and lost only one — an open seat in Nevada, vacated by the Democratic Minority Leader, Harry Reid. That race cost the NRA roughly $2.5 million.- -it is time to "offer our thoughts and prayers"- part of the GOP has begun to implode and there are no "LIBRULS" to blame ------the NRA is being challenged by Oliver North(yeah THAT Oliver from Iran Contra fame) and former Republican Congressman Allen West ---another darling of the GOP right wing. They are both challenging Wayne LaPierre for some outlandish expenditures. Please note that no "LIBRULS" were involved in this disclosure and that the news of this could not possibly be "fake" because it is being provided by the "Fountain of Truth" that runs 24/7 through all the GOP homes ---these warring factions are not helpful in uniting the GOP for the next election cycle---https://www.foxnews.com/us/nra-board-member-lt-col-allen-west-calls-on-ceo-lapierre-to-resign-amid-spending-allegations?fbclid=IwAR34IgzIgXMc3S0jhrTupwVqPxMTECUoMMMJ0NJx8gsbboyPDqVBKhFpEnQ

About New Haven

A child of the 60's, a lifelong Democrat and a sense that our elected officials , especially the President, set the tone of civility in our great country. I worked on JFK's campaign and on Barack Obama's (twice). High School Class of 1963 I was moved by MLK's March on Washington, and to see that go full circle and have Barack Obama for President is quite gratifying. When I see remnants of the John Birch society still quite active in the Tea Party/MAGA it strengthens my beliefs and support of the Democratic Party.
