Three committees in the House of Representatives announced Friday that they were launching concurrent investigations into allegations that President Barack Obama deliberately manipulated intelligence reports from Syria and Iraq, allowing the Islamic State group to thrive.
According to the Washington Examiner, Republican Reps. Ken Calvert of California, Mike Pompeo of Kansas and Brad Wenstrup of Ohio will lead the investigations for the Armed Services Committee, Intelligence Committee and the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, respectively.
"In addition to looking into the specific allegations, the Joint Task Force will examine whether these allegations reflect systemic problems across the intelligence enterprise in CENTCOM or any other pertinent intelligence organizations," read a joint statement from Armed Services Committee Chairman Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., and Defense Appropriations Subcommittee Chairman Rodney Freylinghuysen, R-N.J.
What would be stunning is that this comes to anything.
It seems Benghazi was the arming of ISIS with Khadaffi’s weapons and the weapons we gave the rebels (which they did not want to give back). The 0bama and hillary administration wanted to take out Assad to be replaced with an islamic government.
“with Khadaffiâs weapons”
Made in the USA and sold by 0bama and Clinton to Khadaffi.
The very definition of treason
I would be surprised too if the GOPe was shown to have spine cells in their bodies.
Bingo!
That’s the REAL scandal of Benghazi. We were arming ISIS to fight there.
Is this what you meant?
Invite the Egyptians to testify.
Clearly, the investigation must be coordinated and controlled by one voice, that is to say, one ego. How speaker Paul Ryan has set this up will tell us whether he is trying to redeem himself and improve on the record of his predecessor with respect to an abysmal record in conducting hearings by speaker John Boehner.
Our President has done awful things and now he is being blackmailed by our enemies.
Well they better hurry up. obama is at the point where the ‘lawmakers’ will be not be allowed to poop unless he says so.
This will go nowhere. To his supporters (including the MSM), he can do no wrong. Most others will be apathetic. Those in a position to take action who the Teflon Man doesn’t have in his pocket will be shamed, bullied, and shouted down into silence. This tyrant’s reign can’t be over too soon
There is NO time to hold an impeachment trial, let alone the actual trial in the Senate.
Oh yeah sure riiiiight.
Probably will end with more of this and nothing will get done because the RINO Party has no guts.
Ping
ISIS is also known as ISIL, Daesh and according to a reporter from Europe that embedded with them, the Free Syrian Army. What I am hearing is that Zer0 was supplying Free Syrian Army. Zero probably advised them to use that name.
This is code for: "All these committees will get in each other's way so that nothing happens."
