Reid’s ‘Gifts’ to Granddaughter
Sauce for the goose.
While Harry Reid is busy blasting the Koch brothers for supposedly ruining our campaign finance system – hitting them just Wednesday for their “outrageous spending” – he’s under scrutiny himself for making campaign gifts to his granddaughter. Specifically, the Federal Election Commission would like to know why Reid spent more than $16,000 on “gifts” purchased from “Ryan Elisabeth,” who turned out to be Ryan Elisabeth Reid. She is a jewelry vendor in Berkeley, California, and the items bought from her were later given to campaign donors. Reid says he’ll repay the campaign, but clearly her identity was deliberately obscured. Additionally, two Nevada-based foundations made uncharacteristic donations to her New York theater company. In any event, don’t look behind the curtain … look at the Koch brothers!
