The Benghazi investigation is worthless.
Gowdy has wasted time and money.
Youve heard lefties make the same claims a thousand times over. Republicans shouldnt be wasting their efforts on a Benghazi investigation because everyone involved is completely honest and above board. There are simply no secrets to be found.
...Until, that is, we found out about Hillarys secret email accounts and servers. Yesterday, Trey Gowdy took a moment to point out that his work has now uncovered an entire swath of previously unknown secrecy within the most transparent administration in history. His worthless hearings suddenly seem a lot less worthless.
The fact the Benghazi Committee was able to uncover this previously unknown, and before today unreported, information speaks to the need for the Benghazi committee, Gowdy said. The fact that fact the committee does not rush to trumpet every discovery we make speaks to my personal commitment to conduct a fair and impartial investigation into the Benghazi terrorist attack.
As a result, Hillary has a whole new set of problems. First and foremost is that Trey Gowdy is not a guy you want digging into your illicit activities while you attempt to launch your Presidential bid. It seems that Mr. Gowdy would very much like to see all of Hillarys unofficial correspondence, and shed better hope there are no gaps in the record.
As the Blaze reports, theres no way the State Department can reasonably guarantee that its done its due diligence as long as Hillary is holding the messages hostage:
They cannot certify that they have produced all of former Secretary Clintons emails because they do not have them or control them, Gowdy said in a prepared statement for reporters.
The Department of State is relying on Secretary Clinton herself and her attorneys and advisors to tell us, to tell you, what emails they think are to be preserved, he added in that statement. Gowdy said its nothing short of incredible that any top official would use personal emails while in office, especially given past concerns from both parties about how that practice makes it hard to keep a record of their tenure in office.
With State unable to say it has all of Clintons emails, Gowdy said his committee has no choice but to press Clinton to turn over those emails.
The State Department does not have all of the former Secretarys emails on its servers, only she has the complete record, his statement said. And the committee is going to have to go to her, her lawyers and her email providers to ensure we have access to everything the American people are entitled to know.
In case you missed it, yes, thats a threat.
Hillary is sailing into some very hot water, particularly if she still thinks shes the inevitable 2016 Democrat nominee.
If Gowdy doesn’t breakaway from his GOP-E handlers and do what’s right, this will be another meaningless “Issa investigation” with absolutely no results.
Ha!
Bob Barr was also a good man. But, as long as these 'good' men have the (R) trailing their name, they will only do what they're allowed to do, namely, investigate, then write a report.
History repeats. The cheerleader and GOP elite from Mississippi torpedoed Clinton's impeachment proceedings. They (GOP elite) will protect Hillary from prosecution in a similar manner.
Mr. Gowdy is no afraid of anything.
Wasn’t there a small electrical fire in the klinton crime family’s basement recently that destroyed all electronic devices.
That man be true.
But it will not be Mr. Gowdy’s decision to make.
