Mia Farrow accidentally shows how little the NRA spends in D.C.

Mia Farrow isn’t a fan of the NRA — natch — and she’s done some research to expose just how much (she thinks) the NRA spends on politicians in D.C.:

The total of contributions to candidates from NRA is 77 times larger than contributions from individuals https://t.co/oR4p4qqvPX

Oh really, Mia? Let’s check out what Open Secrets has to say and put the “bribes” and “threats” in perspective. In the 2014 cycle, the NRA ranked 289 of 16,872 in “Contributions,” 151 of 4,070 in “Lobbying” and 10 out of 186 in “Outside Spending”:

But it gets better. Mia Farrow is a Bernie Sanders fan:

#BernieSanders cannot be forgiven for his NRA law one that blocks Sandy Hook families from winning lawsuits against gun manufacturers #Fraud

I hope all liberal democrats are aware that @BernieSanders voted AGAINST #TheBradyBill & supports the #NRA to keep his seat in the Senate
