A former State Department official has told lawmakers that Hillary Clinton allies privately removed politically damaging documents before turning over files to the supposedly independent board investigating the Benghazi terror attack.
The account from Raymond Maxwell, former head of the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (NEA), was first published in The Daily Signal. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, confirmed to FoxNews.com on Monday that Maxwell told him and other lawmakers the same story when they privately interviewed him last year about the attacks and their aftermath.
Chaffetz said that Maxwell claimed Clintons chief of staff and deputy chief of staff were overseeing the document operation, which allegedly took place on a weekend in a basement office of the State Department.

Oh, absolutely, you heard right.
It was K-1st grade level at 12 RPMs per minute, I swear.
As for Bubba, there to give the perfunctory hug after she bored to tears every man, woman and child in hearing distance. Image of each listener mentally screaming, “Shut this woman down! Puhleeeze!”
I just don’t think even Dems can possibly take another syllable coming from this presumptuous airhead.
Clinton and then Obama have given us a total of 14, soon to be 16, years of lawless corruption. I miss the rule of law.
Probably the most important step in restoring legitimacy to FedGov is to cut its size aggressively. We need to oppose any FedGov expansion outside the enumerated powers, which means:
(1) Resist and block all FedGov expansion, since FedGov already does everything useful it could do, everything permitted under the Constitution, and far more,
(2) Prioritize cuts to FedGov to get rid of those FedGove activities outside the Enumerated Powers, starting with costly items have small constituencies first,
(3) Continue cutting FedGov until it is so small that it no longer seems worth seeking government power to the corrupt thugs who currently gravitate toward DC as either Clinton/Obama/Pelosi/ Reid Democrats or McCain/Romney/Christie/Rubio RINOs.
Once we make government limited in size, the crooks will go back to community organizing, fake liberal charities, Chicago politics, and Nigeria scams - where liberal liars belong - and we can have a government that focuses on its small but important actual job.
BTTT
Trey Gowdy who heads the Special Committee is on top of this, I'm sure.

Criminals. Is there no Justice?
A new Sandy Berger. The stuff democrats get away with.
Democrats never talk like they are humans. I don’t think I ever heard Hillary speak like a nomal person in interviews, speeches, anything.
================================================
Hillary's cover story is leaking like a sieve----but covering-up her incompetence is as difficult as covering-up her rear.
We already know that the U.S. military was fully capable of responding to the Benghazi Consulate attacks within 3 4 hours.
Admiral Lyons who commanded the Pacific Fleet and has extensive professional, direct knowledge of U.S. military capabilities explains in detail what capabilities we had in the region and why F-16s from Italy could have been buzzing the compound and strafing the attackers with machine gun fire within 4 hours or less....... the U.S. military could probably have saved the last two Americans to die in the attacks.....
==============================================
MILITARY.COM reported (during the post-Morsi ousting in Egypt), that US Pentagon officials declined to give specifics on conversations between DOD's Chuck Hagel and brilliant tactician Egyptian Gen al-Sisi (now Egypt's president).
(NOTE Gen al Sisi, 58, received a masters degree from the U.S. War College in Carlisle, Pa, in 2006. The General is revered by Egyptians for routing the Muslim Brotherhood which Egyptians consider a terrorist organization.)
Although officials would not discuss the specifics of the military-to-military talks, the US would have needed Gen al-Sisi's approval to move through Egyptian air space if Washington decided to send Marines to aid in the evacuation of U.S. personnel in the post-Morsi chaos.
READY TO ROLL About 550 Marines and their tilt-rotor MV-22 Osprey aircraft are at bases in Spain and Italy on standby if they are needed. A Navy Amphibious Ready Group with 4,000 Marines and sailors aboard, led by the helicopter assault ship Kearsarge, was also in the region following completion of the Eager Lion training exercises in Jordan.

=====================================
AIN'T KARMA A *ITCH, HILLARY? the US helicopter assault ship Kearsarge, WAS in the region, ready to airlift Benghazi personnel to safety. If Hillary did not know the Kearsage was ready to roll, she's as incompetent as the rest of them..... her all-girl State Dept and the venal Obama admin.
Fact is, Americans were lied to----we were told men and materiel were not available to help endangered Americans in Benghazi.
I see that your mayor is finally applying for his security clearance...
Is there anyone in politics more stupid than De Blabio....well, maybe the obamanations.
Ignoramus DeBlab married a lesbian for pity’s sake. That wedding night musta been a riot. “You want to put what where?” sez his astonished bride.
Obstruction of Justice...
Yup you got that right
I wonder if Hillary run would be interrupt by question of Benzari handling probably not with average US media with Social media who know
