Contractors say Clinton State Department silenced them on Benghazi security lapses

EXCLUSIVE: Security at the State Department's Benghazi compound was so dire that another contractor was brought in to clean up the mess just two weeks before the 2012 terror attack – and was later pressured to keep quiet by a government bureaucrat under then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, according to two men from the American security company.

Brad Owens and Jerry Torres, of Torres Advanced Enterprise Solutions, say they faced pressure to stay silent and get on the same page with the State Department with regard to the security lapses that led to the deaths of four Americans.

They spoke exclusively with Fox News for “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” revealing new information that undermines the State Department's account of the 2012 terror attack in Benghazi

Sometimes it takes time for conditions to make themselves right for exposure without destroying yourself in the process. Come on, you can realize that fact. We all wish that truth could be uttered in timely fashion, but that is rarely the case. Facts should not be dismissed simply because of the passage of time. Especially when those facts concern someone with enormous amounts of power that can destroy you forever. Just think how many secrets are out there about people in positions of power, that have never been exposed, or when they have been the accuser has been vilified as a liar, or their motivations are questioned. The court of public opinion is the strongest court of the land, and few are willing to face it, even when the truth is being spoken. There are real reasons why people do not speak up, & people with attitudes that automatically reject their information are the key reason most remain silent. Rarely are they rewarded, & more often they are destroyed, because it is so easy easy to sit in judgement when you are deciding what the truth is. But discerning the real truth remains elusive. Only opinion remains as the way people decide.

Asked if there was a specific effort by a senior State Department contracting officer to silence them, Torres said, “Absolutely, absolutely.”

Tucker needs to stay with this one... maybe some in the State Department ready to flip.
