A former CBS investigative reporter who has filed a $35 million lawsuit against the Obama administration for hacking will be among the witnesses at a hearing on President Obama's attorney general nominee.
Sharyl Attkisson has accused the Obama administration of breaking into her computer and phone after she reported stories that were critical of the administration, such as the events surrounding the 2012 attack on an American compound in Benghazi, Libya, and the failed Fast and Furious operation. She told her story in the book "Stonewalled." She will testify during this weeks Senate Judiciary Committee hearing for Loretta Lynch, Obamas nominee to replace Eric Holder as attorney general, Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) announced on Monday evening.
Also testifying will be Catherine Engelbrecht, the founder of the Tea Party-aligned True the Vote, which she has said was unfairly targeted by the IRS when it attempted to seek tax-exempt status.

I think one crooked and corrupt AG every 100 years is enough. Two in a row is out of the question.

“The inclusion of Attkisson and Engelbrecht points to a fiery hearing that could turn into referendum on Holder’s time at the helm of the Justice Department.”

Expect both to be dead within 5 years of “natural causes” preceded by a stinging sensation in the neck...

I sincerely hope she has some armed bodyguards or something. Otherwise she might end up like Vince Foster or Breitbart.

Yes, I've seen enough photos of Ms. Lynch with her finger pointing in the air to know that she will be another person of color telling whitey their business.

Or Clancy, or Hastings, or Harris, or Simmons, or Stevens…
Heck, there's a huge list of mysterious deaths connected with Obama, his administration and [in general] the government. [See?]

She lived the harassment from the WH and Obola administration. Then, CBS pulled the rug out from under her...

And that is why it motivated me to write “Stonewalled in Obama’s Garden of Beasts.” The parallels to early 1930s Germany are strong, at the political and levels.
