Source: Secret meeting with White House led to Rice, Rhodes Benghazi testimony
Fox News ^ | 3/18/16 | Catherine Herridge

Appearances by top presidential advisers Susan Rice and Ben Rhodes before the House Benghazi committee earlier this year weren’t always a sure thing – the testimony was only secured after a secret meeting in January between panel head Trey Gowdy and White House officials, a source tells Fox News. The source familiar with the negotiations said the White House originally said no to the request to have National Security Adviser Rice and deputy Rhodes speak to the committee probing the 2012 Benghazi attacks. But Gowdy, R-S.C., stepped in to personally negotiate for their appearances at the secret meeting, held late

If there was EVER a president that never should have happened, this has been it for almost eight years. Very long story short...

Mr. Gowdy is a paper tiger.
When he takes a brave stand, let me know.
Once, I thought he would be pretty good, but then he started folding like wet cardboard.

This is an investigative committee.

We were told it would take a while.

The government (Hillary, Rhodes, Rice, etc. etc) have done nothing but delay, obfuscate, and lie to protect themselves.

Gowdy was able to get Rice and Rhodes to testify. That in itself is a major accomplishment since the President was the one protecting them.

If it weren’t for this committee and Gowdy, the Benghazi issue would not even be an issue.

What we now have as evidence, we would not have if not for the committee and Gowdy.

Why you all choose to see Gowdy as a failure I cannot understand. It is his job to ensure the investigation is as complete as possible, and finish it. It isn’t done yet, so what else are you all wanting him to do that he hasn’t ?

Thanks for the ping.

John Bolton on the Fox video says that Hitlery is in deep trouble.

P.S. Half the ‘committee’ is committed to hiding the evidence and fights Gowdy with every breath. That he is able to accomplish anything is almost a miracle.

If I were you guys, I might just give the guy a bit of credit and respect.

It has been clearly established elsewhere both factually and chronologically that Bohner and McConnell were briefed on and gave assent to the arms traffic through Libya to Syria et al....traffic coordinated by Stevens et al which is why they were in country. McConnell and Boehner probably thought they were being respected and included but the Obamaites merely wanted to make them targets for blackmail if Libya went bad which of course it did in Benghazi.

The resulting ‘investigation’ is a pantomime since unearthing all the facts will implicate Gowdy’s current and former bosses as well as reveal the CIA operation. He’s doing his best snarl and bark routine but the GOP have as much or more to lose than Obama/Clinton.

Doesn't matter. Boner and McConnell are marked for massive attack at the first opportunity. Whoever runs against them WILL get massive financial and moral support. Those clowns are toast.

If they're smart, they are planning their departure now. Later, the graft just won't be there.

Good luck, elected criminals.

Let's see where "party first," rather than Americans First have gotten you.

More and more citizens are becoming aware that "Party First" is not only 23 years old, but a copyright of the Clinton Criminal Enterprises.

That says it all...
