One of Harry Reid’s bodyguards accosted a conservative journalist for asking a few basic questions about the Senate Majority Leader’s wealth.
Jason Mattera, author of the explosive new book CRAPITALISM: Liberals Who Make Millions Swiping Your Tax Dollars, recently caught up with Reid and asked him, “How did you become so rich working in government?” The senator refused to answer.
Mattera, who publishes Daily Surge, followed up. “How does someone on a government salary most of their career accumulate your type of wealth?” Still, there was no answer from Reid.
Suddenly, one of the Majority Leader’s bodyguards intervened. “Are you press?” he asked, before shoving Mattera and then pinning him against a wall.
“What are you doing holding me up like that?” Mattera asked the bodyguard.
After the author identified himself as a member of the press, the bodyguard retorted, “I don’t care if you’re press or not.” The man refused to give Mattera his name.
Mattera wrote CRAPITALISM, he has stated, in order to expose the Left’s phony lies and hypocrisy of claiming to stand up for the little guy, but trampling on them every chance they get. Querying how the United States Senate’s number one Democrat accumulated his wealth, he believes, falls under that category. Harry Reid has spent many hours on the Senate floor decrying the undue influence that the billionaire Koch brothers have had on Republican political campaigns, but there have been many questions raised about Reid’s own use of political power to enrich himself and his family.
With a net worth as high as $6.7 million — and living arrangements that include permanent accommodations at the Ritz-Carlton in Washington, D.C. — Mattera believes taxpayers deserve answers about how Senator Reid made all his earnings while living on a government salary.
“As I detail in CRAPITALISM, Reid’s criticism of the Koch brothers could just as easily be a summary of Harry’s senatorial career,” says Mattera.
Ok, I have a headache watching this because the idiot holding the camera couldn’t hold it straight. Other than that, I applaud this guy for doing what he did.
Huge nads dude!…keep pushing, they are getting nervous as they should
Nice work, as far as it goes, but Mr. Mattera appears trapped in the false ‘left-right, liberals bad, conservatives good’ nonsense. Both sides of the aisle in the District of Criminals have betrayed the American people. That said, it is good to see ANYONE taking it to ANY of the corrupt ruling class.
This is the same guy that went after Lois Lerner in a video posted here a couple of days ago. I say go Jason! I had never heard of this guy before this past weekend. He’s earning my respect. Get a cameraman with a steadier hand, but by all means carry on and expose them all. Good job!
Harry Reid is a nobody. He is a freakin weasel that stole a bunch of money. I would love it if everyone would wake up one morning and stopped working for the US. Of course that won’t happen because of all the illegals we got. But what would these scum do if nobody did anything. That’s right make them do some damn work. I mean how often is Congress in session these days. How often is Obama playing golf in Hawaii. The people that sweated blood and guts for this country and look at our president. I mean I don’t mind a president having vacation time, but half of the year? And why does Harry Reid have bodyguards? Maybe because the weasel has stolen a bunch of everyones money? And did you see that dweeb son of his who was suppose to be part of the land sale to the Chinese of the bundy ranch.
