1. We have background checks

[k8conant]

2. my faux-Senator Shelley Moore Capito got $335K

but my DINO-Senator Joe Manchin only got $11K

[Staph]

3. I wonder how recently that $11k was given to Joe.

He's been on the NRA's bad list since he introduced the Manchin-Toomey bill in 2013, after the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School. That bill would have closed the gun-show background check loophole.

The NRA will be gunning for him when he runs for reelection in 2018. (Pun very much intended!)

4. Blood Money

I'm also from WV and in my opinion ALL NRA money is now blood money. I used to have a fairly good opinion of the NRA. I can remember my kids getting gun safety information and instruction when they were young. But now I just see the organization as purveyors of violence.

5. Susan Collins voted against it? That surprises me.

6. Some of them sold...

...themselves comparatively cheaply.

I was going to say "sold their souls" comparatively cheaply, but then realized that you have to have a soul in order to sell it.

7. Who's the $0 in the top row?

Rubio sold out for 4K?

[Gabi Hayes]

8. a list of everyone who got more than $2500 K:
