More Money Discovered Flowing from Reid's Campaign to His Granddaughter; At Least One of His Donors is Also Considering Donating Directly to Reid's Granddaughter's Theater Company
— Ace

The other day, a reporter asked Harry Reid about the $17,000 his campaign had funneled to his granddaughter.

"Sixteen thousand," Reid snipped, chiding the reporter for getting the figure wrong.

The reporter did have the figure wrong. It's $31,000. At last count.

And it gets worse, because one of Reid's organzational supporters, NV Energy Foundation, is considering making a separate donation to the granddaugher's theater troupe, for some reason.

His granddaughter has also received financial support for her fledgling New York theater company from two Nevada-based foundations that typically prohibit donations to organizations outside of their service areas. The foundations belong to gaming and energy companies that have also donated to the lawmaker.

...

According to the Brooklyn Arts Council, Sprat “is supported by funds from Clinton Global Initiative, Caesars Foundation, NV Energy Foundation, and individual donors.” (The Sprat website also lists these contributors, along with others.)

The Caesars Foundation is the philanthropic wing of Caesars Entertainment, a Las Vegas-based gaming corporation that owns and operates dozens of casinos. Sen. Reid has received funds from the corporation in the past.

...

The NV Energy Foundation, also a philanthropic wing of a larger corporation, donates to a variety of causes -- from artistic endeavors to educational institutions. However,Still, the benefactor “reserves the right to give special emphasis to specific categories of funding from time to time or to change or withdraw this program without notice.”

A couple of updates on this (from the same link). The Caesars Foundation says... well they deny funding Ryan Reid's theater company. But then they say they funded "a proposal."


In a statement to RCP, Caesars Foundation spokeswoman Jan Jones said, "The Caesars Foundation did not provide funding to Ryan Reid's company. We funded a proposal from the Las Vegas Keep Memory Alive (of the Cleveland Clinic Luv Ruvo Center) in support, along with several other non-profits, [of] bringing Reid's play . . . to Las Vegas." Jones added that the play, which deals with Alzheimer's disease, fits with the foundation's focus on the illness.

And NV Energy says it did not make a donation... but is considering doing so.


A spokeswoman for the NV Energy Foundation and another for two foundations set up by philanthropist Larry Ruvo separately told Nevada reporter Jon Ralston that they had received applications for funding from Reid's granddaughter. However, NV Energy is still considering a donation, and Ruvo's groups declined the requests. None of the spokeswomen knew why their foundations were listed as donors.

19 Yeah, it's not at all    bizarre that a Nevada energy   foundation    would donate to a     NY    theater start-up.    Nothing at all corrupt about that.


Id' almost give a pass to the casinos   just because    casinos are everywhere.    But NV Energy Foundation?    BULLSHIT.

In reply to the poster in the previous thread, this is how politicians become wealthy     despite their apparently modest pay scale.  They take bribes, they     funnel campaign cash to family members, and they solicit jobs for people who will funnel cash under the table to said politician.

 

Do you want to know the real failing of the GOP?  They are the same type, so they will never come through on campaign promises, because it will cost them too much money.      Democrats are at least smart enough to     make election promises that will also provide rich channels for bribes.

29 MoreÂ… In 2012 Reid helped out a Chinese solar firm that was represented by his son. In December 2010 top democrats, including Senator Harry Reid (D-NV), helped a Chinese firm get stimulus cash for a wind farm. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his campaign received thousands of dollars in donations from the wind farmÂ’s backers. In 2012 Senate Majority leader Harry Reid personally pressured DHS on behalf of sons casino project. thegatewaypundit he's a snake

70 Reid is such a corrupt scumbag. He has been pressuring NV Energy for years to do business with a Chinese solar company that his son represents. He even go the Chinese a break on the land they wanted to buy to build the plant. Land was appraised at around $39 million but the Chinese somehow got it for less than $5 million. If for no other reason (and there are many) I want the Republicans to crush the Dems in Senate races this year and get this odious piece of shit out of power.

Which is part of the reason why ROmney's miserable failure of a campaign still pisses me off.

Romney's made all his money, AFAIK, through his own efforts. He doesn't need anymore. He could have become the reform candidate, the standard Challenger Candidate Playbook since 18-twickey-three. BUUUTT NOOOOOO!

He could have campaigned on cleaning up some of this shit. Just shaming Congress into giving up insider trading would have been a revolutionary act.

NV Energy Inc. (NVE) Chief Executive Officer Michael Yackira will receive about $24 million in compensation after retiring from the Nevada utility purchased this week by MidAmerican Energy Holdings Co.

Yackira, 62, will get $15.1 million for his stock and options, about $6 million in cash and about $2.9 million in pension and other benefits, according to an August 2012 “golden parachute” disclosure by Las Vegas-based NV Energy. Much of Yackira’s stock was already owned or earned through his tenure, said Rob Stillwell, a spokesman for NV Energy.

MidAmerican, owned by Warren BuffettÂ’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK/A), announced yesterday that Paul Caudill, 59, was named president of NV Energy. Caudill is a former president of MidAmerican Solar. Yackira plans to retire in June.

The White House is leaking that Russia 'might' invade the Ukraine?  I'm pretty sure Russians are going to invade--at least as far east into the Ukraine as Putin can claim kinship ties with Sudenten Ger--er, sorry, ethnic Russian Ukrainians so that the Russians can employ some justification for their actions other than naked aggression.

 

Prior to the Russian invasion of the Crimea a few weeks ago, CIA analysts said such an invasion wouldn't happen because the Russian Army wasn't bringing along its usual contigent of medical units for its 'field exercises' along the Ukrainian/Crimean border. The rationale was that an army in an offensive posture wouldn't want its medical services under-represented. The CIA was wrong, of course, because Brennan and those other Ivy League spooks have become too politicized to do their fucking job. It's one thing to set up a honey trap for Petreaus. It's entirely another to accurately assess the possible next moves of a smart and aggressive enemy.

 

Anyway, given the Obama Administration's dismal track record on intelligence-gathering and analysis, I'm tempted to think the Russians aren't going to invade now. That's a relief. /sarc

208 AMAZING how people get so worked up over what amounts to chump change for Reid.

His son got the gig as attorney for SEIU without the sort of grades or experience you might expect, it's a seven-figure job.  Go figure.

Reid himself has never had any honest income besides his congressional salary (his biggest job before Congress was as an assistant county attorney), yet maintains homes in Nevada and DC and still managed to amass a fortune of millions.  It seems he gets "invited" to participate in investment deals just before they are cashed in for huge profits, but after the risk is gone.  Most have to do with friends/donors/cronies for whom he's inserted an earmark here, a clause there, a few phone calls everywhere.

Harry Reid is one of the most corrupt men ever to serve in Congress.  And we get upset over the chicken feed that spilled out of his overfilled bag?

By JOHN SOLOMON and KATHLEEN HENNESSEY, Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON – Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid collected a $1.1 million windfall on a Las Vegas land sale even though he hadn't personally owned the property for three years, property deeds show.


After getting local officials to rezone the property for a shopping center, Brown's company sold the land in 2004 to other developers and Reid took $1.1 million of the proceeds, nearly tripling the senator's investment. Reid reported it to Congress as a personal land sale


Posted by: willow at March 27, 2014 11:46 AM (nqBYe)

224 This is mere nothingness. Please recall the plethora of scandals linked to Dingy Harry: underhanded land deals, a bridge to his house built with taxpayer dollars, constant lying and prevarication, the corrupt way he runs the Senate, etc., etc.

Posted by: runningrn at March 27, 2014 11:46 AM (o6g4X)

225 I remember Harry's real estate scam of many years ago. He and a partner bought land in the middle of the desert for nothing, developed it into a subdivision and then Harry passed Fed funding to build highways and access roads into the area though none were planned in that part of NV for many years. Straight forward corruption with none of these modern kick-backs and third party arm twisting. Good times.

The Interstate 11 and Intermountain West Corridor Study is a two‐year, multiphase, high‐level study examining the feasibility, benefits, opportunities and constraints of a proposed new interstate highway corridor. This initial study is expected to be completed later this year. Funding to construct a potential corridor has not been identified. In addition to the Arizona and Nevada departments of transportation, the Maricopa Association of Governments, Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada, Federal Highway Administration and Federal Railroad Administration are partners in the study.

We get to the case and the prof says okay show of hands who thinks it was justified. About half the class raises their hands. Okay who thinks it wasn't. About half the class raises their hands. The professor then asks "Okay. Who thinks he killed the headmaster for bugging not buggering him?" There's this pause and then, I swear, you could hear the penny drop. Needless to say, there was a rather different outcome when the prof asked okay so now that everyone understands the facts of the case, who thinks it was justified.

283 Aside from the money Nevada received from the stimulus, the cancellation of indebtedness provision and Travel Promotion Act were important additions that helped the gaming industry, Jones said. She credited Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid with both. The cancellation of indebtedness provision allows companies to restructure their debt and delays tax payments tied to capital gains. 'For Harrah's Entertainment, that allowed us to protect 31,000 jobs in Nevada alone. This piece of legislation allowed Harrah's to work to restructure to make sure we kept our employees employed,' said Jones." [Las Vegas Sun, 10/23/09]

284 Buggering is such a British word. Sounds so much nicer than buttsecks.

285 That's just it. Baraka isn't sending MRE's. He's sending the last of our stockpiles of C-rats. And the only choice left is ham and lima beans.

When I was in the Army and the Army still issued C-rats, my buddies and I made a pact to hunt down and find Aunt Beatrice of Aunt Beatrice's Kitchens and force her to eat one of her infamous C-ration chocolate nutrolls, a canned concoction of chocolate-flavored sawdust, alum powder, dust bunnies and desert sand that would suck every molecule of moisture from your body.

 

Ham and lima beans weren't so bad. Neither were John Wayne bars.

286 When it comes to freeze-dried foods (I use Mountain House for hiking trips), the beef stew is kind of nasty. Beef Stroganoff, on the other hand, is not bad at all. The lasagna is pretty good too, but it's kind of "pre-broken up lasagna the way it's going to end up in your stomach anyways." And the breakfast fajita filling? Pretty damn good. Don't need the fajitas.

180 But Reid didn't get comped at the Tangiers so I don't think there's much to this.........

Of course, that character was actually based on Reid, from his time with the NV gaming commission. Gotta suck when you have a Smothers Brother playing you in a Scorsese film.

Obama has an audience with the Pope and gives him a packet of seeds from the WH garden.  Clueless and cheap.  WTH?  He gives the Pope a packet of seeds?  I guess this is nicer than DVDs of Obama's endless speeches.  Who in the hell on his staff comes up with these gift ideas?

290 52 Let's see, Reid demands that my tax dollars be given to a Chinese wind farm, Chinese wind farm gives a percentage to Reid's campaign, Reid uses campaign cash to pay his family. I'm sure glad there is nothing to investigate here. Posted by: Vashta Nerada at March 27, 2014 02:58 PM (eoeps) You're right. There is NOTHING to investigate here. So glad we see eye to eye on this........

$10 says Obama microwaved the seeds on AF1 out of spite.

293 Some of the seeds landed in Washington, D.C., and before they could grow they were choked by weeds. Others landed in Nevada wbere they withered and died from lack of water. But some fell on a highway project where they flourished and gave a bountiful harvest.

294 Obviously, all of government is theater ...

It looks like the National Science Foundation has been handing out grants for some unorthodox research projects, according to House Republicans.

This includes $700,000 in funding for a climate change musical.

295 I was proud of pRESIDENT Obama for talking to that Pope Guy in Italy today. The Pope supports our black president, so why don't you clowns support him ??????????????????

296 BREAKING NEWS Guns.... break Middle School Children.... break Colorado...... break http://tinyurl.com/ncvxpzf PUEBLO COUNTY, Colo. – KRDO is reporting that a group of middle school students from Craver Middle School had the chance to see firsthand what it’s like to fire a gun while learning about gun safety . “I’m very excited, today we’re going to come out here on the gun range and shoot a little bit. The past week we’ve learned about the Revolutionary War,” said Craver Middle School student Jonah Statezny. This was the first time that the national non-profit organization project Appleseed, an activity of The Revolutionary War Veterans Association, had taking its gun training to the classroom. “We’ve never been allowed to bring actual real firearms into a school. Until this week. This is a very big deal. We had them touching fire arms, holding them and learning about how to handle them safely,” said Elizabeth Blackwood, a representative from Appleseed. Way to go Appleseed!
