So the headline says that the NRA laundered money for a Russian businessman to gain funds to help put Trump in the White House.
At the top of the article, you get this:
The FBI is investigating whether a top Russian banker with ties to the Kremlin illegally funneled money to the National Rifle Association to help Donald Trump win the presidency, two sources familiar with the matter have told McClatchy.
—FBI counterintelligence investigators have focused on the activities of Alexander Torshin, the deputy governor of Russia’s central bank who is known for his close relationships with both Russian President Vladimir Putin and the NRA, the sources said.
—It is illegal to use foreign money to influence federal elections.
Except that if you read farther into the article, you come to this line:
The extent to which the FBI has evidence of money flowing from Torshin to the NRA, or of the NRA’s participation in the transfer of funds, could not be learned.
No one has any evidence that this is true, nor do they have any evidence pointing to anything except that the NRA spent a record amount of money trying to keep Hillary Clinton out of the white house......and the members wished, to protect their rights to Keep and Bear our arms.
This has about as much substance as the "Russian Influence" on our latest Presidential election. None. But Mueller is still doing his job, investigating all the lies put forth by the DNC.
The DNC folks keep trying to use innuendo and "Russians" to harm their opponents.
We gun owners ARE their opponents. The NRA is their opponent.
