Harry Reid on When He Was Informed of Bergdahl Swap: âWhat Difference Does It Make?â On Thursday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) was asked if he believed that the White House could have done a better job of working within the law that requires Congress be provided with a 30 day notice before prisoners are released from Guantanamo. Reid asserted that the press was splitting hairs about when Congress was informed of the deal. âWhat difference does it make?â he asked. âThe timeline was very, very brief here,â Reid said. âWe all know that the president had a very short period of time to make a decision.

Bowe Bergdahl] home, and Iâm glad he did.â RELATED: CNN: White House Expected Bergdahl Backlash, But Not to This Degree Reid said that it is his opinion that Bergdahl was in danger every day that he remained in Taliban captivity.
