"The NRA is venal. They come after you, they put together large amounts of money to defeat you," she (Feinstein) said on CNN's "State of the Union."

Black is white, up is down, taxes = revenue, and now NRA are coming after us?
The NRA is playing defense you offensive cow! YOU are the one “going after” people.
I think she means venison...
I hear the government say that the “gun nuts are paranoid”.
We were told that the investigations into the subversives working on behalf of the Communist Soviet Union was a Red Scare and “hysteria”.
So why is the government “right to be scared of gun owners” by not card carrying Communists?
Funny how that “paranoia” card works among liberals/progressives/socialists/statists/Communists.
It’s called “fighting back” you communist Cow!
It doesn’t even occur to this mental invalid that the NRA is a group of PEOPLE. And its membership has grown in response to her histrionics.
Showing or motivated by susceptibility to bribery: "venal politicians".
Molon Labe bitch!
Defund the Secret Service and every other security agency in D. C. If the people don’t need guns, neither do the government hacks.
Ditto
Gotta be fair, it is that CNN fat lady first brought up ‘venal’ together with NRA in the same phrase.
Awwwww. Poor thing. The NRA didn’t play dead and roll over and is defending law-abiding Americans.
Thefts of U.S. technology boost Chinas weaponry
Here:
Chinas government also uses influence operations designed to advance pro-Chinese policies in the United States and to prevent the U.S. government from taking tough action or adopting policies against Beijings interests, FBI officials said.Rudy Guerin, a senior FBI counterintelligence official in charge of China affairs, said the Chinese aggressively exploit their connections to U.S. corporations doing business in China.
They go straight to the companies themselves, he said.
Many U.S. firms doing business in China, including such giants as Coca-Cola, Boeing and General Motors, use their lobbyists on behalf of Beijing.
We see the Chinese going to these companies to ask them to lobby on their behalf on certain issues, Mr. Guerin said, whether its most-favored-nation trade status, [World Health Organization], Falun Gong or other matters.
The Chinese government also appeals directly to members of Congress and congressional staff.
U.S. officials revealed that Chinas embassy in Washington has expanded a special section in charge of running influence operations, primarily targeting Congress.
The operation, which includes 26 political officers, is led by Su Ge, a Chinese government official . . . .
My emphasis. Feinstein and hubby didn't mind the Chi-Coms coming after them (waving stacks of money). I seems to me.
My pastor recently pointed out that if you want to know how depraved your culture is; just look at the women.
Some congressional imbeciles consider that “venal”; most rational people consider it the American political process.
Her complaint is a ringing endorsement for the NRA. It means the NRA is effective.
