la pierre and mr.ship, and to ensure none of the four individual defendants can ever again serve on the board of a charity in new york state. it's important to note that mr. fill sxhips mr. pphillips and m left nra. it's clear that the nra has operated as a breeding ground for agreed, abuse, and brazen illegality. in this state we have a set of laws that every individual and entity must be held accountable to, regardless of who you are, regardless of your power, size, influence, wealth, or station in life. one set of laws. and today, we send a strong and loud message that no one is above the law, not even the nra, one of the most powerful organizations in this country. again, i would like to thank the chief of the charities bureau, jim sheehan, and the co-chief of the enforcement section. >> and there you have it. the attorney general of new york, letitia james, announcing that she is going to try and dissolve the national rifle association, accusing its top leaders of essentially using the organizatio

in taxable personal income for mr la pierre and other recipients in 2017 and 2018 alone just 2 yearsckerman ackerman mcqueen was paid more than $70000000.00 a significant amount of these funds included payments through this side agreement and when board members challenge mr la pierre and the 3 other defendants over this lavish spending their financial governance or their leadership of the n.r.a. mr lapierre retaliated and turned the board against those who attempted to challenge is illegal behavior the complaint lays out numerous other instances in which mr la pierre phillips mr phillips mr powell and mr frazier and other executives and board members at the n.r.a. abused their power and illegally diverted or facilitated the diversion of tens of millions of dollars from the n.r.a. these funds were in addition to millions of dollars the 4 individual defendants were already receiving in grossly excessive salaries and bonuses that were baseless and did not hear to prudent standards for evaluating and determining compensation as required by law all together there are 18 causes of action a

. >> reporter: new york attorney general latisha james calling for the removal of la pierre the nra's leader for nearly three decades and its most public face the lawsuit claims he spent more than $500,000 on eight trips to the bahamas, and more than $3 million on luxury ca services paying for hair and makeup for his wife and a post employment contract valued at $17 million without the board's approval in response la pierre promised a fight, saying this is an unconstitutional, premeditated attack aiming to dismantle and destroy the nra, the group filed its own lawsuit and accused the new york attorney general a democrat of a power grab, trying to score political points ahead of the 2020 election the nra spent more than $54 million during the 2016 election cycle, and last month endorsed president trump for a second term. >> that's a very terrible thing that just happened. i think the nra should move to texas, and lead a very good and beautiful life >> reporter: also today d.c.'s attorney general sued the nra's charitable foundation for misuse of funds as well both lawsuits are civil co

wayne la pierre and 3 other former and current executives use the n.r.a.s their personal piggy banks specifically mr la pierre spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of the n.r.a. his charitable assets for personal private plane trips for himself in a stamp including extended family when he was not present. he visited the bahamas by private eric's charter at least 8 times in approximate 3 year period with his family the suit claims that $64000000.00 was siphoned off over 3 years money the attorney general once paid back in addition james says there is no alternative but to dissolve the n.r.a. as a nonprofit organization transit in new york the n.r.a. was founded 148 years ago but only began lobbying as a gun rights organization in the late seventy's since then it successfully blocked gun control legislation however its power lies not so much in its financial clout but its ability to mobilize its supporters at elections to vote for candidates who reject gun control something reflected in its response to the challenges this was a baseless premeditated attack

it will be likely that you will see la pierre removed from leadership at the nra.lex, what do you predict? what's your view? >> i think if they can back up these accusations, la pierre probably won't run a charitable organization again. if folks care about these issues, that's what you want. you don't want somebody there who is using it as a piggybank. you want somebody there that will advocate for you. that's what our nonprofit laws are meant to do. eric: bottom line, alex, you can remove executives theoretically but the organization can still go on? >> well, they could work that out as a settlement but if wayne is going to stay nobody but me, then they have a real problem. -- going to say nobody but me, then they have a real problem. the board at the nra will have to deal with that. eric: we will see what happens. thank you both. >> thank you. eric: we will be right back. we made usaa insurance for veterans like liz and mike. an army family who is always at the ready. so when they got a little surprise... two!? ...they didn't panic. they got a bigger car for thei

but that one of the possible consequences is that la pierre and the others are tossed out. litigation and a lot of lawyers' hours ahead. >> is this likely to be a successful lawsuit? >> again, the facts of it are quite damning. and there's no question that both the new york and the washington, d.c.'s attorneys general have the authority to do this kind of thing. but it's a very big deal to ask for the dissolution of any organization, certainly one as prominent as the nra. in a lot of ways, one of the things that's significant is, even before this lawsuit, the nra was something of a shell, so to speak, of its former self. it was this force that struck fear in the hearts of politicians. and that made them think if they did anything around gun regulation, that they would be struck down at the ballot box. and in recent years, the nra has lo lost a lot of its focus, has lost the sense of its political visibility. so, it's hard to know how a suit like this will go. but, in a lot of ways, the political fading from power of the nra had begun, already. >> couldn't they just change t

wayne la pierre and three members of leadership who include woody phillips who was the treasurer, thel, as well as the council john frazier, all of them engaged in the looting of the charitable assets of this organization. it's unfortunate they failed to assure -- to subscribe to standard fiscal controls. they failed to respond adequately to whistleblowers. they failed to look at related party transactions. they concealed and nature and scope of whistleblower concerns, and they failed to review potential conflicts of law. and obviously they failed to follow the law as well as possibly the internal revenue code. as a result of that, our complaint lays out all of the facts that these four individuals engaged in as well as the nra and what we are seeking is that this corporation, which was formed under the not-for-profit law in the state of new york, that it be dissolved. we are also seeking that these four individuals no longer serve in leadership position at the nra and not serve on any other board in the state of new york. and last but not least, that they account for the amount of mo

now, one of those named in the lawsuit is the nr aa's long tim chief executive wayne la pierre who saidn a statement tonight, the a.g.'s actions are an affront to democrats and freedom. this is an unconstitutional premeditated attack aiming to dismanhattan and destroy the nra, the fiercest defender of america's freedom at the ballot box for decades. the nra is well governed, financially solvent, and committed to good governance. we're ready for the fight. bring it on. bring it on, huh? well, let's bring on the mission. you say the nra's mission emphasizes the difference it makes in the lives of the people it serves by ensuring that their rights are not only respected but also enforced. well, i got to give it to you, nra, you certainly do make a difference in people's lives, the lives of people in las vegas, in orlando, at virginia tech, sutherland springs, el paso, parkland, santa fe, dayton, virginia beach, thousand oaks, aurora, at the tree of life synagogue. at sandy hook elementary. the nra didn't pull the trigger of course. but whenever families of victims have asked for common sen
