TYT: Who's Defending The Billionaire Brothers Buying Our Democracy?



*Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid stepped up his war of rhetoric against conservative billionaires and liberal boogymen Koch brothers Tuesday, saying on the senate floor that his Republican colleagues were "addicted to Koch" Reid's play on words — Charles and David Koch share a homophonous name with a recreational drug — came less than a week after Reid called the brothers "un-American" for funding anti-Obamacare attack ads...* How did Fox News pundits and Republican politicians respond? The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Word salad on the Senate floor might feel good, but it is an ineffective reaction to what billionaires and foreign interests stole/purchased several years ago.

Citizens United destroyed US governance by the people.

We ought to be asking Reid why name-calling is the best he can do several years after the corporate takeover of the nation.
