YES, THEY SHOULD: Shouldn’t the IRS Look at Why the Tax-Exempt Brady Gun Control Org (Allegedly) Offered a Former NRA President Millions to Stop Promoting Gun Rights?
The allegation says the offer was made in 2018. According to language in the lawsuit, Hammer immediately reported the offer to then-Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre.
“This is not the kind of offer a tax exempt organization should be making under any circumstances,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “First and foremost, nobody’s First Amendment rights should ever be for sale, and secondly, the nature of this allegation almost appears as though the gun control group was offering Mrs. Hammer a bribe to walk away from an issue to which she had dedicated most of her adult life.”
Hammer’s legal action involves an apparent contract dispute between her and the NRA.
“We have absolutely no interest in, nor are we taking any position on, Mrs. Hammer’s lawsuit,” Gottlieb stated. “Our sole interest is in this apparent attempt by a wealthy gun prohibition lobbying organization to essentially silence one of the nation’s most respected and effective voices in support of Second Amendment rights.
I don’t know if this actually happened, but I do know that lefties will silence the opposition whenever possible.
