“‘Steyer hosted a recent fundraiser at his San Francisco home that netted the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee $400,000 and where Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) and the six other Democratic senators in attendance openly discussed plans for …[ the] talkathon, according to reports.’ In other words, the speechathon was planned at the billionaire’s home in Reid’s presence. The uber-influencial Reid is the same Democratic Senator who lambasted the billionaire Koch brothers for their donations to Republican causes and campaigns. Apparently, Reid wants only the Senate to be up for sale, and only to a Democratic buyer.”
