State Dept. Blocks Lawyers from Representing Benghazi Whistleblowers
WMAL ^ | Monday, April 29, 2013

Posted on 04/29/2013 6:04:36 AM PDT by kristinn

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.

"The Department of State is refusing to grant clearances to Victoria and other people who want to represent the whistleblowers in an attempt to prevent the testimony," DiGenova said.

Well of course. The Feds don’t want any more witnesses to have insider knowledge of the betrayal of the American people or it’s state secrets.

How is this possible?

Aren’t they allowed to hire counsel as in everyone’s right to representation

Denying them their right to representation on a clearance technicality. Very clever. Of course it will take at least ten years for this to wind it’s way up to SCOTUS for a decision.

Anyone who knows anything about Victoria Toensing knows she will not stand down quietly.

Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.

How is this possible?

With these miserable bastards in DC, anything is possible. They just do what they want. Constitution and Bill of Rights be damned.

“How is this possible?”

Those who control the pensions of the Federal goons with the guns and 1.6 billion rounds of hollow point ammo can do anything they darn well please.

Actually, it doesn't take that long in disputes between branches of the federal government. The question is does the House have the guts to assert its prerogatives?

Meanwhile, Obama and hang, who could NEVER get any level of security clearance if they were applying for government work, now have access to EVERY U.S. Secret.

it just isn’t right.

“With these miserable bastards in DC, anything is possible. They just do what they want. Constitution and Bill of Rights be damned.”

And some one thought that a state law keeping background
checks from going into a national database would do any good.
This administration is lawless, exempting itself from the laws
they pass on us, like Obamacare. We are now a first world
country with a third world government.
