Joy Reid gushes over Sen. Whitehouse's dark money crusade; doesn't ask about liberal dark money
Fox News
MSNBC host Joy Reid held an effusive interview with Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, during which she asked the Democrat about the impact of "dark money" and the impact of the billionaire Koch brothers have had in that arena.
Reid began by pointing to an Al Jazeera report that global warming has reached an "irreversible" tipping point, before transitioning to a critique of "big oil" and the Kochs, whom she said have supported "climate change denying" organizations. Younger brother David H. Koch died in 2019, while Koch Industries Chairman Charles G. Koch is 85. Koch owns Georgia-Pacific paper company, and various other concerns in the fields of energy and commodities. Reid told Whitehouse that the Kochs helped found the conservative Americans For Prosperity, an influential political advocacy organization that previously helped elevate the Tea Party as an effective political foil to President Barack Obama.More Related News
