Russian spy Maria Butina, who used her sexuality and obsession with guns to get close to influential conservative politicians and groups, walked out of a U.S jail today (Oct. 25) and is on he way back to Russia....
Maria Butina was far from all business when she engaged in a campaign to build influence among Republican Party operatives and their biggest GOP constituent group, the National Rifle Association. She very calculatedly used a “guns ‘n tits” strategy. It could have been culled from a John le Carré novel....
Maria Butina, the accused Russian Spy who allegedly worked with a Russian oligarch to influence the 2016 election, may be close to negotiating a plea deal that could shed light on allegations the National Rifle Association (NRA) funneled Russian money to Republican candidates....
Donald Trump’s claim to be a “law and order” president was rebuked, again, today (Nov. 8) after another mass shooting left 13 people dead and others wounded, cementing Trump’s legacy as the “massacre president” for his failure to act to curb gun violence....

The Trump administration’s approval of untraceable, undetectable guns created with 3-D printers has come under fire by New York Attorney General Barbara D. Underwood and a coalition of other Attorneys General who have filed a lawsuit to block distribution of the gun’s plans....
Pussy Riot, the all-female Russian punk-rock protest group, is a thorn in Vladimir Putin’s side. But their visage of feminist rebellion against Russia’s oppressive, male-dominated oligarchy, is a sharp contrast to their counterpart, Mariia Butina, the fetching Russian spy. The contrast was brought into sharp focus this week with Butina’s arrest for acting as a clandestine intermediary between the Kremlin and American officials, most notably those with the shadowy National Rifle Association (NRA)....
Donald Trump knows how to pull out of a deal if not a porn star. Jim Carrey portrays the president as the Joker from Batman in a new series of garish portraits that capture the Trump political milieu and all of its unsavory dealings. In the latest series of art works, Oliver North, the new president of the National Rifle Association (NRA)is portrayed as serpent in front of an NRA logo oozing blood....
While protests against gun violence swept across the nation and the world yesterday, the National Rifle Association was firing back with a steady barrage of ridicule, misinformation and conspiracy theories in an attempt to shore up their base. As the kids made impassioned speeches for greater gun control and a ban on assault weapons, Dan Bongino, an NRA commentator was blaming the march on Planned Parenthood and “these far-left groups.”...
Dana Loesch the vitriolic spokeswoman for the National Rifle Association, has launched another vile attack on American institutions that truly safeguard our liberty, but the mighty organization she claims to represent is a myth, according to tax documents and other sources. Loeschemay be one of the most polarizing figures in American history. She’s the biggest threat to democracy since Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels....
Wayne LaPierre, the controversial chief executive of the National Rifle Association (NRA), has driven the gun group off the rails deep into alt-right politics and must resign for the good of the organization, so it can return to its roots as an advocate for gun owners. LaPierre has increasingly politicized the NRA during his 17-year tenure as chief executive and executive vice president. In the process he’s distorted its message, bullied Congress and turned the nation into a free fire zone, where almost anybody can buy a deadly assault rifle....
Even if Florida police spotted alleged school shooter Nikolas Cruz walking down the street with an AR-15 assault rifle and dozens of rounds of ammunition, there’s not a damn thing they could have done about it. It’s all perfectly legal in the deadly Sunshine state. Florida has absolutely no restrictions on gun purchases. Anyone can buy any type of gun and own enough ammunition to start a war–or shoot up a school. ...
Donald Trump, the “massacre president,” is offering his “condolences” and nothing more in the wake of yet another mass school shooting in Florida that saw as many as 50 students shot by a lone gunman. At least seven students are dead, and the count is expected to rise. The number citizens killed or wounded in mass shootings is skyrocketing in little over a year into his administration, putting it on a pace to become one of the bloodiest in modern political history....
Jon Stewart, like every other political junkie, was anxious to see the Republican (i.e. Fox News) response to Hillary Clinton’s official announcement that she is running for president in 2016. For the most part, he found it… underwhelming. After all, the GOP, metaphorically speaking, has been soaking a 2×4 in motor oil since 2008, just waiting to whack what they consider an easy target. ...
Wayne LaPierre, the National Rifle Association’s hard-line anti-gun regulation architect, unleashed a blistering attack on Hollywood for cranking out what he called “filthiest form of pornography.” Will Hollywood fight back and lead the campaign against assault weapons? It can be a powerful persuasive force it the debate, but it will take celebrity involvement and more to counter the NRA’s deep pockets and copious campaign contributions in Washington....
