CIA: Trey Gowdy Altered Documents To Frame Hillary Clinton

Monday, October 5, 2015, all five Democratic Members of the Select Committee on Benghazi sent a letter informing House Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy (F-SC) that they planned to begin releasing witness interview transcripts, starting with the interview of former State Department Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, in order to correct the public record after numerous inaccurate Republican leaks.

“Despite claims that the Committee would be run with integrity, Republicans have engaged in a series of selective leaks of inaccurate and incomplete information in an effort to attack Secretary Clinton with unsubstantiated or previously debunked allegations,” the Democrats wrote.

On October 7, 2015, Gowdy sent a response to ranking minority member Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD), stating that he was “disheartened at the nature and tone of Monday’s letter from your Democrat colleagues and you.”

In the letter, Gowdy referred extensively to Sidney Blumenthal, a long-time confidante and adviser to the Clintons, who served as assistant and senior adviser to Bill Clinton from August 1997 until January 2001.

quite some time which will guarantee gridlock.

Teaparty wants to destroy the government, I am not saying this to ridicule, I am saying it because this is their stated goal.

They believe that we need government only for defense and nothing else.

They will of course suffer tremendously if they ever get what they want, but they are stupid and it may be the only way for them to learn.

By suffer I mean their entire lives depend on the socialism we already have, and their lives would be ten thousand times better if we had more, but they are too dumb to realize this.

They dont understand how they got weekends off, higher wages, benefits.

Roads, bridges, clean air and water.

No.

T-baggers will never learn anything. Ever. They are pathologically unable to admit to making a mistake. They are the boy who kills his parents and then pleads for leniency from the court because he's a orphan.

Anyway, I think you are right and I am wrong because you know what, i think they value hatred of non whites more than survival

A fishing expedition with no clear direction looking to get anything on Hillary. It is within the bounds of congress in the way they did it. I believe the possible illegal activity and erroneous leaks have been more recent.

He was a civil servant and not a rightwinger, they HATE people like that.

Romney deserves a good slappin for what he did, and the cons of course deserve to be thrown out of office on their ass
