Ex-State Dept. Official May Have Lied To Congress About Hillary’s Email Setup
Daily Caller ^ | 28 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 07/01/2016 6:07:04 PM PDT by Lorianne

The recent release of House Benghazi Committee interview transcripts includes one from a now-retired State Department official who appears to have given inconsistent statements about his knowledge of Hillary Clinton’s email practices.

During an interview with the committee last year, John Bentel, the former director of the Executive Secretariat’s information resource management division, which manages records and communications for State Department’s leadership, claimed he had no knowledge of Clinton’s use of personal email account or private server.

But emails recently released by Judicial Watch — as well as findings laid out in a recent State Department inspector general’s report — appear to show that he was involved in discussions about Clinton’s email use. He also received a memo in March 2009 which showed that Clinton’s private server was set to be installed at her New York residence.

Further complicating the matter are questions from Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, who has asked Bentel whether his legal expenses are being paid by Clinton or some of her associates.

No one cares in the GOP — which exists only to coverup
treason every week, every day, every hours.

Oh, and to keep THEMSELVES and MOSLEMS exempt.
Now, why would they do that?

New information doesn’t make Hillary more of a criminal than she already is. Others maybe.

May have to build a new prison, one I hope with bars, to hold all the filth in the government on this one. Lord know how many slum bags are in on this. And if they choose fall on their swords for her, then they should pay the maximum price.

Is this guy receiving a government pension?

Maybe his pay could get screwed up until he starts remembering.

Starting to realize there might be a long list of people who will need to take a fall if Hillary is to skate. The longer the list, the greater the chances are someone will roll..

She might not get much sleep tonight. I have no doubt she can keep her lies straight. Her worry is what others told the feds.

Doesn’t everyone in the Obama admin lie to Congress all the time?

There are laws against speeding, but if no one ever gets a ticket for speeding then everyone will just speed all they want. That’s an analogy for what this Congress has done with this admin.

They will lie to you all they want because there’s no teeth to any sanctions from this worthless GOPe run Congress.

Welll... if we need a new prison don’t forget that Obma and his Illinois cronies were going to try to reopen a prison they have in Illinois to take Gitmo detainees... I propose that it be reopened for this administration....

And asked when he first learned that Clinton used a personal email account and server, Bentel said the occurred “whenever it came out” in “the papers.”

That was a poorly written sentence but the gist of it is this guy used the exact same answer Obama always gives when asked about when he found out that things he’s responsible for go squirrely. “I only found out when it appeared in the paper.”
This as opposed to a Clintonian “I can’t recall.”

He is out of Gov. and its ungodly protections of criminals. Nail him to the wall, let him squeal.

I wonder if HRC is STILL using private email, or if/when she switched to using the Fed Gov’t’s secure email. No one seems to know. Maybe we’ll need to as Putin, he seems to be the only competent politician these days.
