Federal judge orders FEC to investigate allegations NRA illegally gave to Republican campaigns

A federal judge ordered the Federal Election Commission to investigate accusations that the National Rifle Association broke the law when it gave Republican campaigns millions of dollars through a series of shell entities — including the initial White House bid of former President Donald Trump.

The case originated with a 2019 lawsuit filed by the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, which was started by former Congresswoman and gun violence survivor Gabrielle Giffords. The organization argued in that the FEC had failed to take action on four separate complaints, alleging the NRA "violated the Federal Election Campaign Act by using a complex network of shell corporations to unlawfully coordinate expenditures with the campaigns of at least seven candidates for federal office."

The Giffords Law Center's original complaint specifically alleges the pro-firearm organization donated up to $25 million illegally to Trump's 2016 campaign through channels like the NRA Political Victory Fund. The complaint also argues that "illegal contributions to the Trump campaign alone are up to 9,259 times the limit set by Congress." Other political candidates that the complaint alleges were implicated in the scheme include Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton and North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis................

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
