A Utah businessman is rocking both state and national politics after claiming Utah Attorney General John Swallow helped him broker a deal with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to make a federal investigation into his company quietly disappear, the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Jeremy Johnson was allegedly told that the price would be $600,000, and claims to have made an initial payment of $250,000 when he was slapped with a federal lawsuit. Now he says he wants his money back.
The Salt Lake Tribune points out that Johnson has no way of knowing whether the funds actually made it to Reid, even if he did make a massive payment to Reid’s alleged intermediary.
The Salt Lake Tribune continues, explaining how the bribe supposedly came to be in 2010:

Guys like Steve Stockman of Texas refuse to play on his team. They are the type who will take him down.
Darn good question. Sure would like to know.
I think Reid has been shaking down the Chicoms since 2012 on the solar panel project.
I hope he has solid evidence. It’d by nice to see Reid go down for something.

Can this be tracked?
From link
...”The writer provided an account number at Bonneville Bank.
A copy of I Works’ general ledger that same day shows $50,000 was paid to RMR Consulting for “legal fees.” Another $200,015 was paid Dec. 2.
...
wow thats the number if you can view the history.Exactly how a crimnal would hide 250k in at least two deposits.
"Geary" Reid?
After years of practice he may not see a need to hide it
Liz posted the connection between Reid -Clinton- and Chineese
They don’t think anyone will connect dots and if they do have enough judiciary In pocket that the profit is worth the crime

Here’s a clip from post #7 on your link. It really does look interesting! I gotta get into it a little bit more.

I am working on some things that could blow Reid (Harry and Rory) out of the water.
People need to focus on lawyer Jay Brown, he is the hidden key that unlocks the door on Harry and Rory bribery. See here:

I can’t cover all the details right now, but Brown goes and it all goes. Utah legislature is looking at the Swallow bribery case. Everyone in Utah needs to ask their legislators to request FOIA for 1982 Reid/Brown corruption probe.
Read this subpoena to see mention of Brown and also investigator to contact in Utah.

Trust me, many layers of an onion are peeling back.
DB has the goods on Harry and the mob. We need to send his book and blog to all those senators who would help Rather Reid !

"So the question before us is, does Harry Reid take bribes? The latest accusation comes from a complicated story from Utah by businessman Jeremy Johnson who says he made a down payment on a bribe to Harry Reid for favourable action regarding his business which was under investigation by the FTC. Well, who should show up in part of the Utah investigation subpoena as a middleman for such a bribe but none other than Jay Brown. So deja vu all over again, Reid is once again linked to an "alleged" bribery scandal (I count 11 such incidents over the years, and that's just what is public!). This one involves Utah Attorney General John Swallow and indicted St. George businessman Jeremy Johnson, but it isn't the first one. Tying everything together was the late Richard Rawle, a Provo, Utah, millionaire who built an empire of Check City locations, including more than 30 in Nevada. He was deeply involved in the federal lobbying campaigns and told Johnson he could use his clout with Reid to help end a Federal Trade Commission investigation into I Works, Johnsons company. All for the low, low price of $600,000 (act soon!)"
You and DB need to get together. His book is available on amazon.
When Madoff went to jail, investigators found Ponzi King Bernie had stashed billions offshore---into a labyrinth of financial and business entities.
COLLUSION AND CONSPIRACIES GALORE Some $8.9 billion was funneled to Madoff through a dozen so-called feeder funds based in Europe, the Caribbean and Central America......a labyrinth of hedge funds, management companies and service providers that, to unsuspecting outsiders, seemed to compose a formidable system of checks and balances.
But the purpose of this complex architecture was just the opposite: the feeder funds provided different modes for directing money to Madoff in order to avoid scrutiny.
==========================================
Wall Street types are very adept at this----they know how to make money disappear faster than a cream puff at a Weight Watcher weigh-in.
Jon Corzine---senator and governor---who got his start w/ Goldman/Sachs---used a myriad of schemes to skim money out of govt accounts, and later, out of his company's investments accounts.
The IRS has outlined the MO of money laundering schemes; listing payments as "legal fees" is often used to hide shady dealings.
Rawle’s connection to Harry Reid is Reid’s Consigliere/bagman Jay Brown. As you know from here.

I am inundated, missing things. Let me know about links to ledgers.
The Reid cut out is Jay Brown, I’ve been tracking this connection back to 1975.
