Step by step Rep. Trey Gowd's House Select Committee on Benghazi is being exposed as just another oppo-research group devoted to attacking Hillary Clinton. We knew this from the start, but they are having a hard time covering it up and the Democrats on the committee are getting fed up.
The Hill:
Democrats serving on the House Select Committee on Benghazi say the panel’s GOP chairman has “abandoned” plans for hearings to shift the focus of the investigation to Hillary Clinton.
“At the beginning of this year, Select Committee Republicans provided Democrats with detailed information about their plans to hold 11 hearings between January and October on a wide range of topics relating to the Benghazi attacks,” the panel’s five Democrats wrote Wednesday in a letter to chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.).
“Since then, however, Republicans have completely abandoned this plan — holding no hearings at all since January and instead focusing on former Secretary Hillary Clinton,” they added.
The missive gives an outline of the hearings the panel was supposed to convene, including: one in April with former Defense secretaries Robert Gates and Leon Panetta to examine why the U.S. had an outpost in Benghazi, Libya; another in May with Clinton to discuss the same topic; another in July with former U.N. ambassador Susan Rice; and finally one in October to hammer out specific oversight recommendations to help prevent a similar attack from happening in the future.
do you really think they thought after years of ISSA crazed inquisitions to no avail and millions of tax payer money for a gut feeling that changing horses in the middle of the stream was going to get different results? all they came up with has been rebuked, so is that why we are seeing their trademark failure to do their jobs resulting in abandonment of their directive to go off on a witch hunt.
should they not have requested the change with congress or since we know congress already knew and supported it they decided to save tax dollars by by-passing the procedure or they didn't want to be bothered or was it just a hurry up attempted hatchet job on Hillary? we know had this been a Dem effort congress would be burning their hair in the chamber but rules only apply to whoever opposes
