Trey Gowdy to Hillary Clinton: Testify Twice on Benghazi, and Hand Over Your Private Server
Blaze ^ | 3-10-2015 | Pete Kasperowicz

Posted on 03/10/2015 1:50:49 PM PDT by tcrlaf

House Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) said Tuesday that he will call on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to testify twice before his committee, after Clinton failed to aswer several outstanding questions about her use of personal email and her reaction to the 2012 attack in Libya.

“The first appearance will be to clear up her role and resolve issues surrounding her exclusive use of personal email to conduct official business,” Gowdy said. “This is necessary to establish our Committee has a complete record with respect to Secretary Clinton’s time in office.”

“Our committee will then call her to appear before the Committee in a public hearing to answer questions specifically regarding Libya and the Benghazi terrorist attacks that took the lives of our four brave fellow citizens,” he added.

Gowdy released a statement just minutes after Clinton argued that she has no further work emails on her private server, and that she didn’t save the remaining personal emails that were left. Clinton strongly hinted that she would resist attempts by Republicans to crack open that server and look for other Benghazi-related emails.

But Gowdy said it’s not up to her to decide what emails can be seen or not seen, and that she needs to give the server to a third party to make those decisions.

Anyone willing to bet that Hillary’s private email server is about to have an unfortunate total system crash, or else end up in the Hudson River?

She doesn’t think so. I hope you are right.

Who even believes it is a physical server. It was probably a virtualized server; want to get rid of it? Destroy the datastore files on the hosting virtual platform that supported this server and it is gone..gone..gone

“Five Democrats on Gowdy’s committee.”

Including that “Evil MF” Elijah Cummings, who has his own troubles now with the IRS and True the Vote.

I can assure you that the Egyptian military and the US NSA both have copies of her emails.

I am sure the Egyptian military would give copies of them to an appropriate Congressman or Senator.

Now the NSA? doubtful. But they without doubt have them.

Before the server can be secured, the power players need to make sure they are not complicit and they need to hide their own. The entire body politic needs 5th amendment protection here. They will all STFU because they are on the server.

Nothing will come from this. Just drama and theater. She will be long gone and buried before we see any of the documents other than the ones she wants seen. This reminds me of the story of “The a Three Pigs”. ‘I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down’. Her house is made of bricks so see how well that will work.

The ex-prosecutor knows he has got the Big Fish on the hook

I think you are misunderstanding the purpose of this committee being run by Trey Gowdy. These hearings are to provide COVER for Clinton and everyone else involved regarding Benghazi, IRS, you name the scandal. The leadership on both sides of that rusted nickel are in on it and have been from the beginning. Gowdy has known about this server for a long long time as did the rest of the committee. This is nothing more than a dog and pony show.

More strong language from Gowdy. Yawn, wake us when he does more than blow smoke.

The emails had to be sent to someone. My thoughts would be to go after who they were sent to. Lean heavy on the people who received her emails and get them to talk.

Congress has slow-walked every investigation and produced NOTHING.

Yep. It is very telling for me that the Weeper of the House chimed in on this (via a spokesman). I'm afraid this is Kabuki Theater (from the article) ...

Gowdy’s comments were backed up by a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, who said Clinton only released any of her emails because of the work Gowdy’s committee has done. But spokesman Michael Steel said Clinton still left outstanding questions.

“Secretary Clinton didn’t hand over her emails out of the goodness of her heart – she was forced to by smart, determined, and effective oversight by the House Select Committee on Benghazi,” Steel said. “Her press conference raised more questions than it answered, and the American people deserve the truth.”

Yeah, right spokesman Steel. John Boehner talks tough publicly and sells out conservatives in the back rooms. Here's the clincher (from the article) ....

While Gowdy’s comments indicate he will keep pressing for information about Clinton’s emails, his subpoena against Clinton could turn up very little. Clinton indicated she didn’t save any of the remaining personal emails, which means even if the subpoena gets Gowdy access to the server, there may not be anything left on it.

That’s the point. A whole lot of people in addition to Hillary are sweating this out.
