Hearing details:
WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa today announced three witnesses who will appear at a full committee hearing, “Benghazi: Exposing Failure and Recognizing Courage,” on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, at 11:30 AM in 2154 Rayburn House Office Building.
“I applaud these individuals for answering our call to testify in front of the Committee. They have critical information about what occurred before, during, and after the Benghazi terrorist attacks that differs on key points from what Administration officials – including those on the Accountability Review Board – have portrayed,” said Issa. “Our committee has been contacted by numerous other individuals who have direct knowledge of the Benghazi terrorist attack, but are not yet prepared to testify. In many cases their principal reticence of appearing in public is their concern of retaliation at the hands of their respective employers. While we may yet add additional witnesses, this panel will certainly answer some questions and leave us with many new ones.”
Witnesses: Mr. Mark Thompson
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism
US Department of State
Mr. Gregory Hicks
Foreign Service Officer and former Deputy Chief of Mission/Chargé d’Affairs in Libya
US Department of State
Mr. Eric Nordstrom
Diplomatic Security Officer and former Regional Security Officer in Libya
US Department of State
In October 2012, the Oversight Committee held the first hearing on the Benghazi attacks, which exposed denials of security requests and forced the Administration to acknowledge that the attacks were not sparked by a protest of a YouTube video, contrary to claims made by Obama Administration officials.

He wanted to move to HIcks to give him the most time
Sorry, Greg Hicks, hero.
“We have not heard from any eyewitness that was in Libya that night. You will be the first. Take your time.”
“As I remember sept 11. 2012 it was a regular day. I remember sending a text to stevens asking him if he was watching what was going on in cairo.”
“Watching a television show in my villa. Ran in screaming, greg, greg, consulate is under attack.”
Praise God!
I find you calling them “bitches” when they were kidnapped as girls and held hostage for years, beneath contempt. That’s what MWestMom said to you. You are wrong.
Fat bottomed girl is going to win out. Her brain is sharp when it needs to be, jello or concussed when it suits her. Whitewater, marcy park, law firm billing records., Hillarycare, etc., she is virtually unstoppable. With her powerful media propaganda machine, she is untouchable!
i WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MAKE IT THROUGHT THIS WITHOUT CRYING.
Sorry
She’s a professional, no doubt about it.
TRUTH is so easy to remember. I hope these lying bastards get what’s coming to them!
“bad cell phone night, connections were weak.” “Reached Ambassador on Scott Wicklands number earlier.”
braindead garbage elects braindead garbage
There’s some brain power < /sarcasm>
What happened with the explanation of Annex Chief. Did Hicks shake his head no or what??? because he moved on without it.
Testimony is outing the names of the witnesses. Interesting.
I already have....just hearing Nordstrom’s opening statement.
“consulate breached, at least 20 hostile armed members” “called annex chief to activate response plan”
don’t fret....we are all crying with you.
