LISTEN: State Dept. Blocks Lawyers from Representing Benghazi Whistleblowers
8:22AM Monday
April 29, 2013
The State Department is blocking local lawyer Victoria Toensing from representing whistleblowers on the 2012 Benghazi attacks, according to her legal partner and husband Joe DiGenova. Teonsing wants to represent such whistleblowers at the upcoming Congressional hearings about the Benghazi case.
John F****** Kerry is at it again! (http://www.wmal.com/common/page.php?feed=102&pt=LISTEN%3A+State+Dept.+Blocks+Lawyers+from+Representing+Benghazi+Whistleblowers&id=19603&is_corp=0)

Wait a minute. How can they do this constitutionally? We give terrorists lawyers. :mad:

Makes no sense. That is unconstitutional. This topic should be out in the open.

What Constitution? We had one but aren't using it any more. Besides, Kerry don't need no frickin' Constitution.

Maybe I'm not reading this accurately, but COTUS does not guarantee legal representation for somebody who is appearing before Congress for the purpose of testifying. Furthermore, the whistleblowers evidently are in possession of classified information and Kerry and his band of incompetents are refusing clearing of those lawyers to talk to the whistleblowers.
If a person is on trial, that person is guaranteed due process and our judicial system provides legal representation, but for somebody blowing the whistle and who needs to share classified information with an attorney? Not so much.

At least four career officials at the State Department and the Central Intelligence Agency have retained lawyers, or are in the process of doing so, as they prepare to provide sensitive information about the Benghazi attacks to Congress, Fox News has learned.
Victoria Toensing, a former Justice Department official and Republican counsel to the Senate intelligence committee, is now representing one of the State Department employees. She told Fox News her client and some of the others, who consider themselves whistleblowers, have been threatened by unnamed Obama administration officials.
“I'm not talking generally, I'm talking specifically about Benghazi – that people have been threatened,” Toensing said in an interview Monday. “And not just the State Department. People have been threatened at the CIA.”

Serious cover-up going on. Now if this was a Republican President doing this, the media would be all over it 24/7, but now they are helping Obama get away with lying and dereliction of duty. :mad:

Knowing what I do of the institutional reactions of the defense and intel communities when they get caught screwing the pooch, even without the overlay of Chicago political thuggery and bullshit lies so prevalent in the current Administration, it's laughable to think otherwise.
ADM Mullen's whole story about the impossibility of responding is also obvious bullshit to anyone knowledgeable about military dispositions, and is further belied by a wave of reliefs and reassignments that followed in the wake of the disaster, scuttlebutt being that everyone who tried to gen up a timely response instead of just letting everyone die in the siege got bitchslapped professionally.

"I'm not familiar with this notion that anybody has been blocked from testifying," said Obama. "So what I'll do is i will find out what exactly you are referring to."

I just can't imagine getting up there and pleading ignorance on this subject. I guess he was too busy calling the gay NBAer to congratulate him on coming out. That question came up, and he said something positive about it. Then he talked about how great it was to judge people by the content of their character. What does character have to do with sexual orientation? Mind boggling that we are at this point in our country.

Obama administration thugs are good at yelling, cursing, screaming, and threatening when it comes to intimidating journalists. But all they can really do to the journalists is freeze them out of favor. If the journalists succumb to it, then it serves them right. But if Obama and his thugs think they can get away with pulling this crap on GS employees, they've got another thing coming. The constitutional scholars in the White House are going to learn the hard way about the coequal branches of government and the No Fear Act. Let them make threats. This isn't going away.

Another reason to really hate him

He might as well - and wouldn't it be great if we could seal up the entrance with him inside?

Hear Come the Whistle-Blowers–
Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) spilled the beans tonight on the Benghazi hearings scheduled for May 8th. Gowdy said “first hand witnesses†will be testifying on the massacre and coverup. He told Greta – she won’t want to miss it.

Mark your calendars and pray that none of the witnesses turn up dead before the big day.

White House Press Whore Jay Carney: "Benghazi happened a long time ago (http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/carney-benghazi-happened-long-time-ago_720428.html)."
"Let's be clear," said Carney. "Benghazi happened a long time ago. We are unaware of any agency blocking an employee who would like to appear before Congress to provide information related to Benghazi."
The question was about reports that Benghazi whistleblowers are being prevented from coming forward.
Another attempt at minimizing the admin failings in Libya. I pray there will be justice, but am not hopeful it will come in this world.

State Department's Benghazi review panel under investigation, Fox News confirms
The State Department's Office of Inspector General is investigating the special internal panel that probed the Benghazi terror attack for the State Department, Fox News has confirmed.
The IG's office is said by well-placed sources to be seeking to determine whether the Accountability Review Board, or ARB -- led by former U.N. Ambassador Thomas Pickering and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen -- failed to interview key witnesses who had asked to provide their accounts of the Benghazi attacks to the panel.
The IG's office notified the department of the "special review" on March 28, according to Doug Welty, the congressional and public affairs officer of the IG's office.
This disclosure marks a significant turn in the ongoing Benghazi case, as it calls into question the reliability of the blue-ribbon panel that then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton convened to review the entire matter. Until the report was concluded, she and all other senior Obama administration officials regularly refused to answer questions about what happened in Benghazi.

I don't think we will ever find out the truth about Benghazi. This regime is deceiving, misleading and outright lying to stall the investigation until the facts are lost.
