"Failure cascade."
One failure causes another and another and another, until the whole structure fails.
Leftists have engineered a failure cascade for themselves. This is one of the most stunning failures so far.https://t.co/3LA9TOESr3— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) August 6, 2020
She accuses the LEADERSHIP of malfeasance. The AP article APPEARS to be factually incorrect.
Membership is apparently higher than it's ever been, according to Pew Research.

Trying to DISSOLVE the NRA even if the allegations made against the leadership are true will backfire in a way that Letitia James is obviously not anticipating.
The problems for her are manifold.
This move comes at a time when leftist activists have lost interest in the NRA.
Also, she choose the WORST POSSIBLE MOMENT to attack gun ownership.
Finally, this is a transparent attack on conservatives, as everybody can see.
She's trying to take out the nation's most powerful advocates for the Second Amendment.
Regardless of the validity of the charges, Americans will see this as yet ANOTHER attempt to bolster the current mania for defunding and abolishing the police and allowing deranged Brownshirts to run wild in our cities.
James has openly politicized the office of the New York attorney general.
One of her campaign promises was to look for crimes for which she could charge Trump.
"Show me the man, and I'll find you the crime."
--Lavrentiy Beria Chief of the People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs (NKVD)
Everything the AP article says about the NRA leadership actually describes leftist politicians and high-ranking law-enforcement officials.
"James, a Democrat, argued that the organization’s prominence and cozy political relationships had lulled it into a sense of invincibility and enabled a culture where non-profit rules were routinely flouted and state and federal laws were violated."
Here's the crux of the matter:
NOBODY HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH A CRIME.
The lawsuit simply seeks to abolish the NRA.
Pretty straightforward that this is purely political.
BUT.
It couldn't have come at a worse time for the Democrats.
Who is totally under siege on all levels--physically, psychologically, legally, socially, politically, academically, and artistically?
Trump supporters.
How can we stop it?
By reelecting Trump.The sheer insanity of attacking this relentlessly us WHEN WE HAVE AN EASY OUT is almost incomprehensible.
But I learned from my communist brother that leftists are not thinking.
They're simply following their script.
You know what it's like?
The opening stages of World War One.
The French answer to everything was the bayonet charge.
Here's the uniform they wore.
The French carried out bayonet charges against German machine-gun positions, wearing red pants.
Guess what happened?
They got mowed down before they could even get close.
A member of parliament wondered if maybe wearing red pants wasn't a good idea.
"THE RED PANTS ARE FRANCE!" shouted another parliamentarian to thunderous applause and cheering.
Within a few months, they adopted a new uniform.
It blended in well with the smoke and fog.
In this election cycle, leftists went from red pants to THIS:
Trump is a SORCEROR.
All the deep-blue coastal states are campaigning for him nonstop.
So are the battleground states run by Democrats.
I applaud their efforts. There's only one outcome to this madness.

A Russian ship’s cargo of dangerous ammonium nitrate was stranded in Beirut port for years
(CNN)As Lebanon’s investigation into the devastating blast in Beirut continues, officials have pointed to a possible cause: A massive shipment of agricultural fertilizer that authorities say was stored in the port of Beirut without safety precautions for years — despite warnings by local officials.
Documents newly reviewed by CNN reveal that a shipment of 2,750 metric tons of ammonium nitrate arrived in Beirut on a Russian-owned vessel in 2013. The ship, named the MV Rhosus, was destined for Mozambique — but stopped in Beirut due to financial difficulties that also created unrest with the ship’s Russian and Ukrainian crew.
Once it arrived, the ship never left Beirut’s port, according Lebanon’s Director of Customs, Badri Daher, despite repeated warnings by him and others that the cargo was the equivalent of “a floating bomb.”
Lebanese authorities have not named the MV Rhosus as the source of the substance that ultimately exploded in Beirut on Tuesday, but Prime Minister Hassan Diab said the devastating blast was caused by 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate. He added that the substance had been stored for six years at the port warehouse without safety measures, “endangering the safety of citizens.”

Unintended consequences.
“Turn America into the premier medical & pharmaceutical producer in the world – bring the supply chains home – Buy American”
I’m sure Trump can do this, his business acumen is amazing. He has managed to do things so far that I honestly wasn’t sure if he could do.
Make America the #1 exporter of pharmaceuticals....just like America turned into the #1 exporter of energy!
It’s not only targeting Trump supporters but anyone that wants to use their second amendment rights. So on one hand liberals want to defund the police and let rioters run rampant, and now they want to take the guns out of people who might want to defend themselves.
Rope. Lots of rope being handed around.
“just like America turned into the #1 exporter of energy!”
Yeah, who would have thought that could ever happen!
Husband just got a text from friend. Says Trump made a comment from Ohio...about people are out to get him. He might not hear from him for a while.. Have you all heard anything?
Energy independent in less than 3 years. Unbelievable. So sad that the press is so evil that they can’t even give the man credit for his COUNTLESS accomplishments. I loathe the left.
Thanks for all the good reporting today. Just now getting cause up. Still working on setting up lap top. It says it must “upgrade”. Don’t know how to get it to do that.
Also spent the afternoon designing cabinets. FUN FUN FUN.

Interesting to say the least.
Don't exactly know what to think about that.
