Hillary Clinton testifies before the House Select Committee on Benghazi, which is investigating the events surrounding the 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate there, in which Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others died.

I missed it too, was it deciding to continue?
My guess is....the Democrats wanted to end the hearing and wanted it voted on. Another mindless waste of time, if that was what they were voting on.
I’ll bet there are.
A poll result that tells you what the American people think about the hearings BEFORE the hearings starts?
Surely you Clinton propaganda bots aren’t desperate enough to think no one would notice the time stamp on the story?
Blumenthal emails were relevant! Chris was being asked to react to the damn things. Politics. Get it?
Wow. 2:22. Already? This is why I love Live Threads!
I missed it, too.
A loud truck drove by.
BLUMENTHAL ......info from Gowdy’s letter .....(pardon typos):
Blumenthal was acting as Clinton’s de facto political advisor.
Blumenthal tried to heavily influence the Secretary of State to intervene in Libya & he pushed hard for a no-fly zone in Libya before the idea was being discussed internally by senior U.S. Government officials. Clinton told Blumental that she was pushing the option with the (UN) Security Council & to “stay tuned”. Shortly thereafter the US pushed a no-fly zone through the UN Security Council.
Once Blumenthal got his way and a no-fly zone was established he pushed for a more aggressive posture by the US in the conflict, including arming the rebels. To support his rationale to Secretary Clinton, he used sagging polling numbers. (See memo at link)
Blumenthal advocates for increased aggression in Libya to help the Administration in the polls, increase Obama’s chances for reelection, and have Secretary Clinton appear presidential.
Blumenthal’s motive – money.
Beyond the pure politics that were occurring at this time ….. 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 US intervention in Libya that deposed Qaddafi. This business venture was the one he shared with Tyler Drumheller and Cody Shearer, the authors of the information sent to secretary Clinton.

Hillary has a TOTALLY DIFFERENT DEMEANOR this round!
As in for the office challenged?
Might be and I”m glad they are doing so! Questions have not been answered.
Hillary is asked why she responds to Sid with regularity on politics and business in Libya, but not Chris on security.
And, the other guy did it excuse. It was Jake Sullivan, now it is going to be Victoria Nuland.
do you happen to have a twitter feed that is also following this. I was following one and it hasn’t been updated for a bit.
Thanks for confirming this is hitting you Clintonites where it hurts
Sec of State uses her office to topple a 3rd world oil regime for a political corny? Some rabbit hole.
She’s been coached over the break...maybe given drugs. LOL!
What do you mean, prisoner?
Better or worse?
I’ll bet that her advisers told her to stop leaning on her hand and giving us the f*inger on her face.
No, sorry.
Ah, the “public messaging” question to poor Chris on reading and reacting to “politics” one day after an attack.
Bingo!
There will be a Gowdy remark on THAT!
Looks to me like a massive coffee input to sober her up.
No drooping eyes or head in hand....YET!
bkmk my place.
I have to leave! Arrggg
