By now, everyone except L.A. Times readers knows that Reid may have violated Senate ethics rules. Reid failed to report a land transfer to a partnership controlled by Reid and a controversial lobbyist “whose name surfaced in a major political bribery trial this summer and in other prior organized crime investigations,” according to the Associated Press. Reid’s company later sold the land at a $700,000 profit, but Reid never reported the initial transfer or his ties to the lobbyist.
Something should go here, maybe later.
