Can we assume some ‘Deep State’ traitor got a nice chunk of change in his personal account?

Not for nuthin’, what do you think our guys were doing in Benghazi?

If we pull our heads out of the weeds, the picture is pretty clear.

Obama-lama-ding-dong was very busy throwing weapons to his ISIS buddies. Obama should be put on trial for treason.
