Kettle, this is pot, come in
The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Ownership is having a tough time:
Two investigations against pro-gun rights groups that were initiated by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence turned up no evidence of wrongdoing.
The FEC said that in both cases, one against the National Rifle Association and the other against the Gun Owners of America, it could find no evidence that either group had made illegal in-kind contributions to federal candidates.
Of course, the Brady’s suffer from projection (common among anti-gunners):
In 2003, the Brady Campaign’s PAC was fined $26,000 by the Federal Election Commission for failing to properly disclose $200,000 it spent on mailings in 2000 opposing two Republican House candidates, Reps. Ernest Fletcher (R-Ky.) and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.)

When caught with your hands in the cookie jar, you blame your rival siblings.
On the other hand, it’s really no one’s business where who spent what money unless it was stolen money. The Brady Bunch, the NRA or GOA should be able to give any amount to anyone they choose.
It is when a politician, judge, or LEO violates the Oath of Office that a crime has been committed:

Whenever you hear talk of “getting the money out” of politics or anything else, what you’re hearing is that someone wants to get the freedom out of it. Instead of punishing the corrupt politicians, we are now punishing ourselves and allowing the corruption to continue unabated.
