Select Committee Announces Scheduled Testimony of Additional Witnesses (Feb 25, 2016)
Washington, D.C. — Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy (SC-04) released the following statement announcing the upcoming private testimony of additional witnesses:
“Our committee continues to break an immense amount of new ground as we compile the most comprehensive accounting of what happened before, during and after the terrorist attacks in Benghazi. As we approach our 80th witness interview and work to release our report and recommendations before summer, it’s time for the administration to turn over the records this committee requested nearly a year ago. The American people and the families of the victims deserve the truth, and I’m confident that the value and fairness of our investigation will be abundantly clear to everyone when they see the report for themselves.”
The following witnesses will be questioned in private and bring the total number of witnesses interviewed to 79, including 62 who had never before been interviewed by a congressional committee (these are denoted with asterisks). This schedule is not comprehensive and is subject to change.

Throw the ‘Rats off the committee. They claim it’s a partisan witch hunt anyway, so to quote one of their favorites: ‘what difference at this point does it make’.
It is an investment in laundering $2 billion to the Bolshies if Hitlery becomes Pres__ent.
From the point of view of the Democrats, the $2 million was well spent, all the better because it was from GOVERNMENT funds, and not out of the pockets of the usual suspects.
Democrats seem to live very complicated lives, the more so because sometimes their explanations and stories get all tangled up over each other..The simple truth would serve them ALL much better in the end.
Mark Twain was quoted as saying, “Always Do Right. This Will Gratify Some People and Astonish the Rest.”
I am prepared to be astonished.
‘An eyewitness to the attacks from the national security community’
Does this mean they are finally getting access to the 30 or so CIA operatives whose lives were saved in spite of Obama’s and Clinton’s orders? (and FYI, my hippie brother after, saying ‘no one really knows what happened in Benghazi’ was unaware that there were ANY survivors. But he only listens to Big Media, who only report what Obama allows).
We should not complain, because the Democrats are just doing their job in defending an innocent Secretary of State. After all, it is not like anyone died; What difference does it make anyway?/s
