Bombshell: Would-Be Hillary Campaign Adviser Lied About CIA’s Role Editing Benghazi Talking Points
Independent Journal Review ^ | February 2014 | Kyle Becker

Posted on 08/06/2016 2:58:41 AM PDT by Enchante

Catherine Herridge of Fox News is all over new evidence that former CIA Deputy Director Mike Morrell was responsible for editing the Benghazi talking points, while attempting to blame the FBI....

...Before Mike Morrell left the CIA, he disclosed to the Wall Street Journal his interest in “advising future presidential campaigns.” Morrell then joined Beacon Global Strategies, a firm founded by Phillippe Reines, who has been described as Hillary Clinton’s “principal gatekeeper.” Morrell is currently a paid contributor for CBS News.

Former CIA guy Mike Morrell, who is slamming Trump in the pages of the NY Times, not only is a total Obama/Hillary flunkie but was responsible for the fake editing of the Benghazi talking points..... and then trying to shift the blame to the FBI.

Morrell now works for Hillary's private national security team, so he is obviously not any independent mind. He is political whore who sold his soul to Hillary Clinton long ago.

This is really important info to get to all news sources, Twitter feeds, etc. as Morrell’s diatribe is being treated as significant. It really is simply another page of talking points from Shrillary’s own team.

Article is old (2014) but info is incredibly important and topical, since Morrell’s NY Times op ed just came out yesterday and is being used to try to influence the outcome of the 2016 campaign.

Morrell is just a paid shill for the Hillary Clinton campaign.

Not only is Morrell a Hillary paid flunkie but he is deeply complicit in the Benghazi cover-up.

There are two “Senior Counselor” positions with Beacon Global Strategies. One is filled by Mike Morell. Guess who holds the other one???

Leon Panetta!!!! This is a total Hillary Clinton whorehouse for national security personnel.

I hope Trump’s people have this information for the debate, if there turns out to be one.

Ben Carson did a respectable job on CNN yesterday.

CARSON: My reaction is that he [Morell] has also involved with the secretary of state during the Benghazi thing. And he was not critical of her in a situation where we had those Navy SEALs on top of that compound firing away, helping their colleagues escape. And I know in the back of their mind, they were saying, help is on the way, because we've always supported our troops. We've always supported our staff. We left them. We said it's too dangerous. What precedent does that set? What does that tell our military people in the future? You get in a scrape, you're on your own? That's not a good message. That's somebody who I think would not be a fit commander-in-chief.

BLITZER: So you are saying Hillary Clinton would not be a fit commander-in-chief. But you are raising questions now about Mike Morell, a career professional, rose through the ranks in the intelligence community. You are suggesting what, that he's partisan, that he's not responsible?

CARSON: That he supports -- yeah, he supported her throughout that whole endeavor. If he was truly someone who was concerned about America, about our defense and about our image, I think he would not have participated in that.

BLITZER: He had two CIA contractors who were killed in that Benghazi operation, terrorist attack. I assume he's very, very intimately involved if all that of that. And all of the congressional reviews, basically, did not condemn if at all, as far as I know.

CARSON: Well, whether they condemned him or not, he was a part of it [Behghazi], Wolf. You can't get him out of it. He was in it. He knew what was going on. He knew -- I mean, this is really quite, quite clear. So why was he not concerned about that if he's so concerned about the defense of our nation?

BLITZER: I am sure he is very concerned.

ISIS also right now in this article very concerned about Donald Trump and his relationship with Vladimir Putin, the Russian president. Listen to what he writes, among other things, about that, he says, "In the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin has recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation."

Now, those are very -- that's a very powerful accusation.

CARSON: Yeah, but, Wolf, there's going to be all kind of accusations flying from both sides, things that aren't accurate and things that again are trying to make this about Hillary Clinton, about Donald Trump. It's not about them. And I think a lot of the American people recognize that. That's why you are seeing some of these large enthusiastic crowds, even though there are a lot of people telling them things to the contrary. They see hope. They want a future for their children. They want economic freedom. They don't like the fact that we are going on $20 trillion deficit. They don't believe people who say the economy is humming along beautifully because they have eyes and ears. They can see for themselves that it's not.

From that Freebeacon article ...

Sen. Richard Burr (R., N.C.) told Fox News many of Morell's recent statements on the war on terror run contrary to what he told Senate committees over the previous decade as a CIA employee.

Herridge goes on to report some speculate Morell may have higher political ambitions considering his employment at Beacon Global Strategies, a government relations firm founded by close Hillary Clinton confidante Philippe I. Reines.

Philippe Reines is more than Shrillary's "confidante" he has been her number one go-to flunky on foreign affairs all through her time in the Senate and as Secretary of State. He actually accompanied her on most or all of her travel as Secretary of State ("110 countries"). He is he most loyal servant, as is Mike Morell. They are up to their necks in Benghazi and everything else Hillary has been associated with in foreign affairs. Scumbags!!

=========================================================

[from the Beacon Global Strategies firm website]:

Philippe Reines is a Founder and Managing Director of Beacon Global Strategies LLC.

From 2009-2013, Mr. Reines served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Strategic Communications and Senior Communications Advisor to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who he has worked for since 2002. In that role, Mr. Reines traveled to more than 110 countries with Secretary Clinton as part of her senior team, responsible for crafting and executing the strategic media goals of the Secretary of State.

Prior to joining the State Department with the Secretary, he served from 2002-2009 as Senator Clinton’s Senior Advisor & Press Secretary. In 2007-2008, Mr. Reines simultaneously served on Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign as Communications Advisor for National Security & Foreign Policy, and served as Chelsea Clinton’s spokesman, traveling with her throughout the primaries, often with the candidate and Former President Bill Clinton.

In the Senate, he was the primary point of contact between Clinton’s office and the national press corps, and served as her spokesman and primary communications advisor on national security and foreign policy issues, largely focusing on Clinton’s work on the Senate Armed Services Committee.

They had to cover it up, it would have been an open declaration of war against Syria if it had been exposed.

Not bad for a Nobel peace prize winner.
