The NRA has recently sued its long time lobbying firm for refusing to provide a detailed account of billing for the $40 million NRA spent with them in the last year. The lawyer leading the charge for NRA is the brother-in-law of a senior AM partner however and it isn’t immediately clear to me whether the suit is justified or an attempt to poach a client that spends millions on legal services every year.
In response, NRA Board Member and AM partner, David Boren has demanded Wayne LaPierre step down. The demand was delivered by the new President, Oliver North, who also receives money from AM. Having seen what Boren has done to OU, I can’t imagine he has the same vision f the NRA that I do and it surprises me to see him and North on the same side.
