WASHINGTON Sidney Blumenthal stood to benefit financially from his unofficial advice to Hillary Clinton on U.S. policy in Libya when Clinton was secretary of State, according to the Republican chairman of the House committee investigating the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi.
Beyond the pure politics that were occurring at this time, perhaps more disturbing is that at the same time Blumenthal was pushing Secretary Clinton to war in Libya, he was privately pushing a business interest of his own in Libya that stood to profit from contracts with the new Libyan government a government that would exist only after a successful U.S. intervention in Libya that deposed Qaddafi, Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., wrote in a letter Thursday to the Benghazi panel's top Democrat.
n the biting 13-page letter to Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., Gowdy said he plans to release email traffic within days showing that Blumenthal, a longtime Clinton family confidant, was her primary adviser on Libyan policy. More than half of the emails sent to and from Clinton regarding Benghazi and Libya prior to the terrorist attacks involved Blumenthal, according to Gowdy's letter.
The fact that former Secretary Clinton relied so heavily on an individual for the Libyan intervention, her quintessential foreign policy initiative, whom the White House explicitly prohibited from working at the State Department is mind-boggling, Gowdy wrote. . .

Who is going to read Gowdy’s letter to Clyburn?
I mean Cummings.
Read it yesterday. It was a well reasoned, and yet scathing, smack down of Cummings and the leftards on the panel who have only been active in the investigation by way of their inaction.
Gowdy gets slammed for not moving more quickly, but he’s stacking block on block on block, building the wall that we hope will crush the presidential aspirations of cankles and her symbiotic munchkin, Huma.
I’m willing to watch this play out a bit longer...
<><> the Clintons first announced Blumenthal was hired @ $320,000 per year by the Clinton Foundation to "promote Bill's presidential legacy",
<><> at the same time Blumenthal was tight w/ American Bridge and Media Matters two Democratic groups aiding 2016 Clinton's effort,
<><> Blumenthal was also a paid advisor to businesses seeking Libyan contracts (compromising US ntl interests, by marketing his influence at the State Dept);
<><> Clinton Foundation employee Blumenthal was secretly advising Secy of State Clinton about Libya @$320,000 per year.;
<><> at the same time, Sid also pocketed $200,000 a year from Clinton political ally David Brock's media operations pushing 2016 Hillary's campaign agenda.
The constant drumbeat of lurid revelations indicate Clinton imperiled US ntl security, and used the State Dept in tandem w/ the nefarious Clinton Foundation in a huge money-laundering operation.
These activities fueled the Clintons affluent lifestyle and their political ambitions.
THIS JUST IN Clinton personally paid IT guy Brian Pagliano...but Pagliano is still on the govt payroll....as a tax-paid "State Dept contractor"--- working on mobile and remote computing functions, according to a State Dept spokesman.
The kindly Clintons made sure "somebody" keeps getting State Dept checks. We must demand to know who among the Clinton cronies are cashing US govt paychecks ...perhaps as State Dept "contractors."
<><> Hillary?
<><> Bill Clinton?
<><> Sid Blumenthal?
<><> Huma Abedin,
<><> Huma's husband?
<><> Cheryl Mills?
<><> Cheryl mills' live-in David Domenici?
<><> Chelsea Clinton?
<><> Chelsea's husband?
