BREAKING: Gowdy Releases Report Proving Dem Insiders Obstructed Benghazi Investigation

From the very moment of its inception, Democrat members of the House Benghazi Select Committee have worked to sabotage, subvert and otherwise obstruct the committee’s efforts to discover the truth of what happened that fateful night of Sept. 11, 2012, in Libya.

Now that the committee’s work is drawing near a close after two years, with chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., promising to release a final report soon, the Democrat members are demanding a bigger role in the drafting of the report.

But Gowdy, though “mildly amused” at this latest bid by the Democrats, is not surprised that they would make one last gasp at upending his report. He let them know how he felt in a scathing letter sent this weekend to the top committee Democrat, Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings. According to The Hill, the seven-page, 1,800-plus word letter laid bare the numerous documented incidents of the Democrat members’ obstruction of the committee’s investigation, led by the “serial leaker” Cummings himself.

Gowdy, who tenacious style of investigating and interviewing witnesses has earned him the nickname “The Bulldog,” wrote that the Democrats “have spent far more time writing letters, selectively leaking material, and spreading mischaracterizations than you have actually participating in this investigation.”

Nevertheless, “Despite your efforts to undermine and obstruct our fact-centered work, rest assured all members of the committee will have the opportunity to review the report and offer changes in a manner consistent with the rules of the House,” Gowdy promised.

The report and accompanying evidence and transcripts would be released shortly after that, at which point the American people would be able to make up their own minds about exactly what happened in Benghazi.

“This investigation has uncovered new information that will change how the public views what happened before, during, and after the attacks in Benghazi,” Gowdy wrote. “Despite your best efforts to prevent it from happening, actually talking to eyewitnesses and actually accessing relevant documents has produced new information… It took longer than I wanted, but we are finally going to be able to answer questions left unanswered by previous investigations.”

You can read the entire letter right here.

The letter in the link at the bottom is epic.

I've watched this guy Cummings before and he is a shifty charlatan lying obstructive arrogant democrat.

Gowdy puts him in his place, but I doubt it will effect his smarmy way of doing the business of destruction of the USA.

I found this the other day, actually the letter first and just checked and it had not been posted here at FR.

Here's the rest of the article, the URL isn't on the forbidden list.

It has been clear from the start that the Democrats assigned to the committee had the sole purpose of obstructing the investigation and protecting the legacy of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. In this, they have seen some success over the past couple years, but have ultimately failed in that task.

Gowdy was absolutely right to call out Cummings and the other Democrats for their deliberate efforts at stymieing the investigation he has been leading, exposing their subterfuge for the American public to see.

Hopefully, the final report will be released soon, so we can put the sorry history of the Benghazi attack and its Democrat coverup to rest once and for all.

You know I used to be like a teenage girl whenever anything at all came out from Gowdy.

after awhile finally I started feeling stupid.

it’s going to have to take something pretty incredible for me to get excited again about Gowdy.

I certainly don’t see him as an enemy but I can’t say I feel the same way as before.

He didn't have time, it's only been 3 years.

His timing could not be worse. No surprise he’d release when even under normal circumstances it would get limited exposure. Now? None.

Yeah there are problems with Gowdy I agree.

But his article and the letter are important.

You have problems too I see.

I won't bite you, but maybe my dog will.


If you are going to post to me, in the future leave out the childish digs.

great letter

so nauseating that Rep. Gowdy has to address these lying obstructive DemocRAT scumbags as “The HONORABLE” this and that -— they are all devoid of any semblance of honor, integrity, or decency

Too little, too late. Gowdy had years to make this point and he did not. Instead, he created the illusion of probing investigation while doing nothing.

Between his bogus investigation of Benghazi and his support of amnesty for illegals, Gowdy is finished as far as conservatives are concerned.

True but it was released at least 6 days ago, before the Orlando Islamic terror attack.

Great letter....Thank you Syncro! I’m looking forward to reading the new report. Kudos to Gowdy for calling Cummings out. There needs to be much more of this.
