I think one of the reasons the GOPe in Washington is so timid (with Democrats) is that they know Obama has NSA files and knows where every teenaged Thai ladyboy is buried.
I’ve said that all along. They ‘copied’ lots of files. That’s why they were ‘missing’ for so long.
could very well be.
I remember Trey saying he was getting death threats from being on the Benghazi committee.
not saying that’s why he weaseled out of bringing a strong case, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were from dangerous people
The Clintons have their files and Dennis Hastert, a pedophile, became the longest serving Speaker of the House after Gingrich.
You're forgetting also the Ellen Romesch Strategy, as told by Richard Poe: ~~~~~
For example, on February 8, 1998, with pressure mounting to impeach Bill Clinton, George Stephanopoulos appeared on ABC's This Week with Sam Donaldson and Cokie Roberts. Stephanopoulos had resigned as White House communications chief in 1996 and become an ABC news analyst. But he was still carrying the Clintons' water, as his next words made clear.
Stephanopoulos announced that the Clinton White House was planning what he called an "Ellen Rometsch" strategy. He explained that Rometsch was an East German spy who had managed to become John F. Kennedy's lover. According to Stephanopoulos, the Kennedy White House threatened to open up the FBI files and divulge embarrassing or incriminating information on anyone who attempted to blow the whistle on JFK's affair with Rometsch. If pressed to the wall, the Clinton White House would do likewise, said Stephanopoulos.
Sam Donaldson asked, "Are you suggesting for a moment that what they're beginning to say is that if you investigate this too much, we'll put all your dirty linen right on the table? Every member of the Senate? Every member of the press corps?"
To which Stephanopoulos replied, "Absolutely. The president said he would never resign, and I think some around him are willing to take everyone down with him."
This was a clear threat, delivered openly, on national television. Through Stephanopoulos, the Clintons were warning Congress and the media to back off.
The threat worked.
David P. Schippers, who was Chief Investigative Counsel for the Clinton impeachment, reveals in his book Sell-Out that Republican leaders, from the get-go, had no intention of holding a proper impeachment trial or of convicting Bill Clinton.
It was all a charade.
