Which members of Congress? Did you catch that part too?
We're not looking for a bombshell statement, that's what the opposition uses when they can't produce anything more substantial. From what you're posting it seems that those headlines grab your attention pretty quickly, but you're slower to find the little bits with more substance.

Metal, if you do a search of FBI NRA investigation, you will see that the story has been picked up by several well known news organizations. I don't know if it's made it to TV news yet because I don't watch TV newscasts very often.

I didn't post the article you referred to, Turkee, because other than explaining about this attorney, it didn't have much more than I already have posted. It did, however, bring a smile to my face that the headline was so effective at getting my attention when the article actually disproved the headline. Kudos to the author.

Your take away began as "oh gee, I hope they don't get caught with their pants down", regarding the NRA filtering money from the Russians to help Trump win the presidential election.
Now your take away has moved to the Russians secretly infiltrating the NRA to control their direction and influence their decisions as an organization. All the while gaining their sympathy in some great grand conspiracy where the NRA has simply been a bunch of unwitting rubes that fell prey to Russia's evil manipulation and got paid for it. The whole thing began with unsubstantiated claims from a couple of unnamed sources. Really? Talk about feeding the beast.
