Chica Chica Boom Boom

Okay, you get to be on the cutting edge of the NRA scandal that’s brewing.

The Wall Street Journal is having some big time fun with leaked documents they received about Wayne LaPierre’s spending habits.

 

 

Hey, don’t be picky – it’s pretty easy to spend $39K for clothes in one day.

Wayne LaPierre required the PR firm to pay nearly $14,000 to rent an apartment near the NRA’s headquarters for a summer intern named Megan Allen.

And NRA chatrooms are going crazy about it.

 

 

I dunno. Apparently those swan things don’t come cheap.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.

Be social and share!

  1. I am sure outraged NRA members will show up at the HQ to implement a “second amendment solution” any day now.

    They’ll blow holes in that flamingo.

  3. Alan,

    I’m not sure if it would be NRA members showing up implement the Second Amendment solution, but Wayne’s wife (assuming he has one) might have a solution of her own…

    and…to use a Trump talking point “people are saying it’s fired Oliver North to blame for this additional leak…..NRA paid $24 million for one year of legal services to an outside lawyer they hired, Bill Brewer = $97,000 per day. As the NRA’s dirty laundry is oozing out, still can’t find it in me to plan a pity party on their donors behalf. I worked for massive corporate law firm that birthed a big fallutin’ famed judge….and nope…Not one of the firm’s 200 lawyers billed $97,000 per day!

    Here’s a great line for attorney Brewer’s resume’
    “Vultures routinely circle the office of attorney William A. Brewer III on the 59th floor of Dallas’ Comerica Bank building. (Hawks do, too, but they’re more rare.)”

    Hopefully, he’s used some of those NRA donor dollars to gussy up his office. The pic makes it look tragic.

    Well, hot damn, flamingo -that- ‘summer intern’; well, ol’ Wayne is 69…years old.

    Summer=3 months, $13-14K/3= $4,500 per month rent, not too shabby. Sure, get the PR firm to pay the ‘entertainment’ bill.
    Meanwhile the NRA was paying him $5-6million/yr salary [plus expenses]. No wonder he and Comrade Donnei get along so well.

    Oh look, LaPierre’s another Repukian Chickenhawk, along with RAT45:
    “Despite a draft number (097)[8] that placed him in the “most likely to be drafted” category for 1970, he avoided military service during the Vietnam War.[9]”

    The sad part is, non-NRA types have been warning about this kind of “creative licence” in the kind of guys that run the NRA from the point that they live to abuse the serfs. And the serfs have been OK with riling up the libs, so they took that perverse pride in supporting people the libs hate.

    Now that the fearful leaders may have been finally caught out, who knows what may happen. Just don’t underestimate how badly the need to infuriate the know-it-all liberals drives “the base”.

    How many times have you seen or played the Good Samaritan only to be flipped off…

  8. Looks like Wayne LaPierre is nearly under-the-age limit when he’s out flamingo hunting.

  9. Burning threw the NRA coffers like a hot knife on butter, LaPuke might still need some of that old fashioned Russian laundry money. That rubber ducky alone must cost a fortune!

  10. It appears Ms Allen does not come cheap either.
    Those pool floats are only $30.00 at Walmart.

  11. Wayne certainly didn’t pay $39K on clothing for Megan.

    Rick, “flamingo hunting”, looks more like ol’ Wayne’s more into oyster dredging/mu– diving to me…figuratively speaking; [more literally- the Fulton-Rockport, TX harbors are home to a number of oysterman boats {and shrimpers}. I always scoop a few up when out in the bays, from the many oyster reefs.]

    montag, yet another example where the ‘unclothing’ charges are reallyreally expen$ive.

    AlanInAustin, “Gift Planning Associate”, ok,
    Sandridge- giftee in waiting, after all there’s a Summer Solstice coming up, and Fathers Day, andand yeah I gots a birthday yeah that’s it, birthday; y’all chip in now.

    Is this any way to spend those rubles? I wouldn’t be surprised if Putin gave a “tea party” for ol’ Wayne.

    15
  16. I guarantee there’s plenty of NRA members who think Lil Wayne is awesome because of this. Until it’s their daughter.

    Saw that comment in HuffPost, can’t help it, need to share:
    “The NRA is dead??? Thoughts and prayers.”

    Thanks for the link for clothes shopping. I took a look.

    I was going to buy the Wool Couture Fashion Show Bomber Jacket, a steal for only $6395.00 in Ocean Dive Pale Blue. . . but it doesn’t come in my size, which is “non-idiot”.

  20. Can’t wait for the outraged NRA members to send in an audit team followed by the IRS! Old Wayne had better be on guard. That chickie and the pink whatever in the pool is his last hurrah!!!

  21. Jane & PKM says:

    The Not Rational Anymore (NRA) gang has our thoughts & prayers for imminent bankruptcy and whatever criminal cases it requires to remove the Rubles from the “Rs” in NRA and the snocilbupeR. Wayne’s Last Waltz or Tango with Ollie North was a fine ending to a not so fine organization.

  22. Jane Lonely says:

    Wow that NRA message board was something else. Couldn’t happen to a nicer set of guys. What really amazes me is that despite all the clothing $, these guys still look like assholes. Remember Manafort and his ostrich jacket? LaPierre, same. Both look like assholes.

    Bomber jacket? Guess I’d better look at that website again. I could use a pale blue bomber jacket.

    Sorry for another off topic post, but I found this:
    “(LGBTQ) Lawmaker Epically Takes Down ‘Save Chick-fil-A Bill’ in Texas”.

    “So that just happened. Texas State Rep. Julie Johnson (D), a trial lawyer, just shut down Texas’ “Save Chick-fil-A Bill” in a way guaranteed to make parliamentarians rejoice.”

    Old Fart, I was going to reenter the conversation with some sort of snark about an uptick in the sales of flamingo floats at WalMart, but I got more interested in your contribution about the Chick Fil A flapdoodle. Currently Chick Fil A is under a lot of scorn because of a monstrously huge building right in the middle of our small town: partnering with a carwash, this abomination got slipped past the town board of naive architectural review by a clever misrepresentation of the appearance, showing the proposed elevation with an appropriate setback which did not happen. Now we are stuck with a sore thumb, and anybody I know are not even considering going there. Here, combining curly fries and religion is a non-starter.

  26. Lunargent says:

    Well, that is certainly an impressive display of Ms. Allen’s – uuhh – qualifications. God, rich old white men are such cliches in their behavior.

    As for the $6k bomber jacket; I can’t figure out why they paired it with pajama bottoms. Or are they leggings?
    As Joan Cusack put it so eloquently in “Working Girl”:

    “Six thousand dollahs? It’s not even leathah!”

    And the purpose of the colossal waste of money trying to improve Wayne LaPierre’s appearance via wardrobe, when his inner ugliness is reflected in that nasty, wrinkled, contorted face, escapes me.
    I’m equally nonplussed that a single carry-on suit bag could contain clothes that cost as least as much as a year of our mortgage payments.

    Yeah, neither do those inflatable pool float.

    So a little timeline would be instructive.

    2014 NRA leaders are invited to Moscow by Maria Butina to some bogus gun rights conference (Putin doesn’t allow private firearms in Russia, but LaPierre is under the influence of a red headed Russian babe who can suck a hollow point right out of the casing).

    2016 a Russian oligarch makes a multi million dollar donation to the NRA. Later that year the NRA makes massive, unsustainable donations to Trump’s presidential camaign, way more than usual.

    2018 NRA reports they’re going broke–an organization which never had money troubles before.

    2019 leadership battle results in high profile struggle, with LaPierre winning.

    So what are the odds Putin got some snaps of LaPierre and other NRA leaders with underage sex workers in a Moscow hotel, and is using those to force the NRA to pour out its financial life blood for old Donnie? Ollie North tried to save the organization by outing him, but got forced out.

  29. Sandridge says:

    Brad in Dallas, just so many ‘thoughts and prayers’ for them…
    [ps- the NRA has had many reps in meetings, and communications, with Russians since their first major contacts; just more Rethug traitors]
