Apologies if already posted but this is the first I've heard of it, from another source. Posting excerpt from Ammoland's article because other source, which I discovered linked to from another source, is verboten here at FR IIRC.

Very bad stuff still happening, prominent NRA board member and prominent Oklahoman Dan Boren seems to have gotten mixed up in it all, unfortunately.

Hope you don’t mind, ping. Seems important and I didn’t find it in search.

Ollie North got more votes than anyone else in the most recent election for NRA Board of Directors. Not taking sides here, but as a Life Member, I sent them a letter basically telling them to get it together. Gotta keep our eyes on the prize. Holding onto and restoring the Second Amendment.

I see no mention of Dan Boren in the article at all, so how does he figure in this as you claim?

NRA needs to have an independent commission investigate all these machinations, give members a credible explanation, and clean house as necessary. But who can be trusted to do the investigating? Mueller and Weinstein are available; we know they’d be fair and quick too. /S

Old news. Dozens of sources starting two days ago.

“The NRA is legally incorporated in New York State.”

Okay, this is obviously a problem.

A corporation can change its state of incorporation.

Moving a Nonprofit to Another State

https://charitylawyerblog.com/2017/11/01/moving-nonprofit-another-state/

If the Republicans do very well in the next election, taking back congress, the NRA should appeal to President Trump to “grease the skids” for its move to another state. Then the NRA could open up bidding with states that would be thrilled to host the NRA.

Though it is a non-profit, states can still give the NRA major incentives to move there, and many would.

I don’t know fellow sojourners but something is rotten in Fairfax. I’ve been a member since 1961 and really don’t want to hear this turmoil anymore. I’ve always thought of Ollie North as a stand-up Marine and if he couldn’t take it then get your shit together NRA. 2020 is looming and we have to get it right.

The NRA is rotting from the inside: Wayne LaPierre style.
Loads of shady crap going on there for the last few years.
All of the gun podcasts that I listen to are talking about it.

The NRA has been Wayne LaPierre’s personal bank account for years. What the communist left couldn’t accomplish they’ve done to themselves.

I hope GOA and SAF have a plan to take up the lobbying slack. The NRA with its shady business dealings and betrayal of its purpose is swirling the drain.

I hope everyone who cares about the 2A has a plan.

We are going to be on our own very soon, and we really can’t even rely on Trump or the GOP at this point.

Is there an obvious “good guy” in the top tier of NRA leadership. Rather than trying to figure out who is causing the problem, is there someone who is unambiguously on our side, on the side of the Second Amendment, and on the side of the rule of law?
