Indicted Businessman Names Harry Reid As Alleged Recipient Of $600,000 Bribe

A Utah businessman is rocking both state and national politics after claiming Utah Attorney General John Swallow helped him broker a deal with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to make a federal investigation into his company quietly disappear, the Salt Lake Tribune reports.  Jeremy Johnson was allegedly told that the price would be $600,000, and claims to have made an initial payment of $250,000 when he was slapped with a federal lawsuit.  Now he says he wants his money back.

Hmmm

Harry is not an an ardent supporter of massive gun control and is a major stumbling block preventing Obama further shredding the Constitution and stealing our guns. So the only thing to do is remove him. Presto within days suddenly out of blue comes a very public announcement that Harry has been taking bribes. In short order he will be forced to step down and his successor will
pave the way to revoking the second amendment and with that the destruction of the republic. His only choice will be to step down in disgrace or vote to violate the second amendment. Time will tell.

Didn't I hear that someone "claimed" Iraq had WMD.

Not saying Reid is guilty, just reporting the allegation. But if you read both stories I linked, it shows the man is decently credible. I have heard bribery rumors about Harry Reid going back a decade or so. Where there is smoke, there is usually cash.

Just saying.
