Lack of Budget Not a Factor in Benghazi Security Decisions Youtube 0:35
That’s it! Thanks!
That point about the funding may have come up more than once, in the hearings, but that IS the exchange I best remember.
The request for increased security was turned down because Hillary’s State Dept. insisted on an appearance of “normalcy” even when Libya was disintegrating into violence.
Ok, Apple Pan Dowdy, whack ‘em!
BTW, Apple, Charlene Lamb was a Deputy Assistant Secretary Of State at the time & the person most directly responsible for the “no” when increased security was requested.
She was later “moved” in a sort of sideways and upward fashion to help get her out of the public eye. (More evidence of the Washington “swamp” of corruption.)
