Reid slams Koch brothers

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) took to the Senate floor last week to rip Americans for Prosperity and the Koch brothers specifically for their attacks, and doubled down on them on Tuesday.

“I guess if you make that much money, you can make these immoral decisions,” Reid said on Wednesday. “The Koch brothers are about as un-American as anyone I can imagine.”

{mosads}Reid attacked them once again in a Tuesday speech from the Senate floor.

“This is about two very wealthy brothers who intend to buy their own Congress,” he said. “We may never know how much the Koch brothers spend to rig the system for themselves.”

The remarks have stirred fury on the right — some GOP lawmakers have asked Reid to apologize — but he isn’t backing down. Democrats are hoping to turn David and Charles Koch into bogeymen in races across the country, much like the GOP did with liberal mega-donor George Soros.

Phillips wouldn’t discuss how much the Koch brothers are involved in his organization’s day-to-day activities. But he slammed Democrats for celebrating their own super-PAC donors like Soros and Tom Steyer as heroes while attacking those on the right.
