Fox News host Steve Hilton spent a segment of his late night show railing against the National Rifle Association head Wayne LaPierre, saying he had misused the trust of NRA members and was "an odious grifter."

"For years Wayne has taken NRA members’ money to live the life of a king, but he’s not a king. He’s the head of a nonprofit trusted by millions to use its funds to secure constitutional rights," Hilton said Monday. "Wayne LaPierre is an odious little grifter and it’s time for him to go."

The host's criticism came after the Wall Street Journal revealed that LaPierre got the NRA to agree to pay for a $6 million Dallas mansion for his family. The NRA had claimed that no money from the organization was used to pay for the mansion.

The NRA has been in disarray for the past several months with four members resigning from the board in the last several weeks. NRA second-in-command Chris Cox resigned in June after an allegation surfaced that he was part of former NRA President Oliver North's attempt to get rid of LaPierre.
