At the very least Elijah Cummings should be tried and Convicted of Treason.

He used multiple Federal Agencies to attack and smear Tea Party Organizations applying for Tax Exempt Status.

He leaked testimony in a Congressional Investigation to aid a Criminal enterprise..ie Clinton Global Inititive.

There should be a motion filed in the House to Censor this Jackass or remove him.

Wow...Cummings is certainly in a kettle of fish now...

Tons of information in the memo...Cummings likes to leak info?

...Gowdy just dumped a load of truth on him...

Gowdy called him on his partisan and disingenuous role on the Committee...

Cummings seems to think it's OK to leak information for political posturing and leverage

Gowdy just dumped a tractor trailer load of leaks on Cummings head...

Cummings and his colleagues whole scam has just be exposed...

I suspect Cumming will be quite as a church mouse for a while...

No sooner had I begun to walk up the stairs to the Capitol—minutes after Ms. Mills finished her interview—than a reporter repeated back to me, nearly verbatim, portions of her testimony favorable toward Secretary Clinton.

Cummings and the Democrats continue in the finest Rosenberg tradition.

**** “I suspect Cumming will be quite as a church mouse for a while... “ ****

Nope, he will shed this like water off a ducks back, he thinks he is just as privileged and even more untouchable than the Clintons cause he can play the Race Card.

He cannot be shamed

Can't agree more on that part of your post...

The man knows no shame...

My point was: he will be quiet because he doesn't want to start making a lot of noise on such a damaging document...

He starts crowing and that will actually interest some media to look at Gowdy letter...

Maybe Gowdy ought to put another knot in Cummings tail and maybe he will squeal in protest and get some lamestream media (steno pool for Dem Party) attention.

Then again, Cummings ain’t too bright, he may open his yap without further prodding. The letter is 13 pages long so it make take a few more days for whoever the unlucky slub is that has to read it and explain it to him. We will know then.

Very interesting read, as much as I don't understand all there is about this, I feel Trey Gowdy does and will proceed with the investigations no matter how long it takes to get to the TRUTH and punish all players.

He is not dragging this matter out, (imo), each new thing that is uncovered or released in turn exposes another avenue that was not thought of before, and that has to be investigates. i.e. Blumenthal has to be recalled now.

I will give Sen. Gowdy the greatest benefit of the doubt I can.

You can bet Blumenthal and his associates made it their business to know what was really happening in Benghazi, even if they were not the operators there (and maybe they were). I am unsure if the things he was proposing to do were strictly illegal (his possession of classified info was, but the DoJ would have to care); he was careful o talk about training and advising without a combat role. I’d be interested to now how far he got beyond the self-promotion stage. Blumenthal should be a valuable source for Gowdy on what was really happening in Benghazi and Hillary’s role in it. I hope Gowdy gets Blumenthal and his associates over a barrel and makes them spill the beans. The frustrating thing (well, one of many) is that Hillary’s actions will be hidden behind legal requirements for secrecy that Gowdy must work within. We will not know the truth of what is discovered.

Gowdy : In addition to Sidney Blumenthal’s business interests, Secretary Clinton also apparently received classified information from Blumenthal—information she should have known was classified at the time she received it. In one email, Blumenthal writes “Tyler spoke to a colleague urrently at CIA, who told him the agency had been dependent for intelligence from [redacted due to sources and methods].”48

This information, the name of a human source, is some of the most protected information in our intelligence community, the release of which could jeopardize not only national security but also human lives. Armed with that information, Secretary Clinton forwarded the email to a colleague—debunking her claim that she never sent any classified information from her private email address.”

There may be other instances as well where Secretary Clinton passed on classified information she received from Sidney Blumenthal."

So there’s definitely someone or two in deep doo for leaking this name to Blumenthal and Drumheller if not also Drumheller himself.
