Eh, what else is new?
As Twitchy reported, the CBO is out with a new report predicting that a minimum wage hike would cost half a million Americans their jobs. But if you ask Harry Reid, we’ve got to fight to raise that wage — for America! And what’s more American than blaming the Koch Brothers for your pathological ineptitude and lies?
The Koch bros made over $18 billion last year, but middle-class families have watched their incomes stagnate for decades. #RaiseTheWage

Good. Lord. This is full-blown Koch Derangement Syndrome, and evidently it’s all the libs have left.

.@SenatorReid Un-fucking-believable. The majority speaker of the US Senate is attacking private citizens. A sad day in this country.

That's how he justifies 500K-1M job loss? MT @burgessev Reid on CBO min wage report: "The Koch brothers made over $18 billion in 2013 alone"

How many unpaid interns does your party currently "employ"? You can afford to give them some of your wealth. Walk the walk. @SenatorReid

Good idea. But first:
@SenatorReid You are filthy rich. Give me your money. Now.

.@SenatorReid Why haven't you shared your millions of dollars with me? It's almost as if you don't really care about economic inequality.

C’mon, Harry. Put all your money where your big, fat mouth is.
