NSA has them.
So does Russia, China, Iran, Isreal, and ISIS ...
What did you expect!
Sad. But probably very true.
Sad. But probably very true.
so probably do 5 foreign governments
NSA’s customer base is all concerned governmental agencies (including the WH) which agency gets what depends on the Intel, origin and nature. Congress has no access except as elicited by hearings (closed) before Intel Committees and the like. FBI might get info pertaining to foreign agents working in the US - that sort of thing. Most Intel goes to DOD and Pentagon, Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, and other spooky agencies.
They didn't have to allocate the money. They could divert weapons allocated to other regions or other buyers. There have been stories about weapons shipments to Jordan that have gone poof in the night. For example: NY Times Jordanian Arms Story
Also, we know that the armed forces have abandoned all kinds of equipment and machinery in the field in Iraq and Afghanistan. To me this is mind boggling and I think Trump mentioned this in the first debate. Thousands of HumVees just left behind for ISIS to take. They also took rockets, 75,000 machine guns, 40 tanks, Howitzers, armored vehicles, and even a helicopter. US "Accidentally" Armed ISIS I have a hard time believing that the US Armed Forces lack the discipline, logistics and know-how to bring this equipment back home. Who was in charge of this? Is this an example of the Peter Principle in the army? A case of no oversight so nobody cares? Or, they were instructed to do it? Whatever the case it was reckless - how many innocent people will be killed by these weapons we just careless abandoned? And it is just one more example of how government doesn't care a whit about wasting the American taxpayer's money.
Oh, and if they did need money, maybe this is where that $6 billion the State Department cannot properly account for went. Fortunately the IRS can't audit the State Dept or else someone would have a hefty tax bill. WaPo $6 Billion Spent, No Paperwork
Susan Rice seems to know everything about this course of events. They should ask her.
Wonder if Wikileaks has any....
Barry's boys will invoke Executive Privilege in a nano-second and rightfully so.
I loathe every aspect of this poseur squatting in the White Hut, but that's a President's privilege and I reserve that right for our side when we're running the show.
Where was Obama, and what was he doing while the Ambassador was under attack? Has this question has EVER been answered?
Just ask the hackers.
Hey Julian.... YooHoo, Mr. Assange....?
Can you lend a hand here?
Obama’s dog ate them. Woof! Woof! “Yes he did”.
I’m Obama and I approve of this new lie.
[NSA has them.]
Winner
Thanks, Kimdotcom.
[That’s what Kim Dotcom was trying to relay.]
Exactly
Funny, they don’t seem to mention the potential of “A Youtube video” ........... Odd
It couldn’t have been a lie to steal the 2012 election could it?
$6B of missing State Dept. money buys a lot of weapons.
Vlad will hand them over if NSA refuses.
