Jeh Johnson, DHS Secretary: Is he a fox guarding hens or an ignorant hound?



Here is a snapshot quote from Sutliff about Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson:


Now, we have to ask if Jeh Johnson is a Muslim practicing taqiyyah (lying to protect the Islamic faith) or if he is simply clueless. The answer is sadly not definitive. But then being in charge of one of the US government’s national security should mean that HE HAS A RESPONSIBILITY to know certain things, such as who are the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States, and that they have written a declared mission to commit Civilization Jihad on North America! – Paul Sutliff

That pretty much sums up this exposé on Secretary Jeh Johnson which will include an insightful comparison of the Bill of Rights and the Quran.

Jeh Johnson, DHS Secretary: Is he a fox guarding hens or an ignorant hound?



May 26, 2015

For too long I have pondered the silence of the alphabet soup that is supposed to be protecting us. Where have the FBI, CIA, DHS, NSA been when they should be arresting even those in power who commit acts of treason? I have long pondered how I, a Special Education Teacher, can see the actions of treason and the men and women paid to protect our Constitution and the American people can not or simply refuse to act!

I have long been a believer that America is the land of equalization. But perhaps I forgot about the dangers of an evil boss. The employer who thinks nothing of lying to discredit an employee, purposefully tarnishing their name for no other reason than to satisfy their lust for power!

Combine that lust for power with evil intent bent on the destruction of our government and what do you get? Bosses and administrators who are so feared because of the heavy footprint they have left on good men and women as they crushed them into silence or complicity.

Now is the time to look at WHO is in power at the head of the Alphabet soup agencies! Do those who lead personify a lust for power with evil intent?

Jeh Johnson, the current Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), was appointed by President Obama to a post he had no qualifications for. He had not served in the military protecting America, nor had he spent one day as police officer where he would have learned to protect and serve. What pushed Jeh Johnson into the lime light as a potential DHS leader then?

Jeh Johnson is one of the lawyers who worked for the terrorists detained at Gitmo. He was President Obama’s inside man working to give the terrorists, who are not American "citizens" the rights of Americans under the Constitution. Debbie Schlussel and the Journal both wrote of their concerns about President Obama’s nonsensical choice to fill this post. What qualified him for Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security in President Obama’s eyes was his work helping terrorists!


Jeh was one of the leaders who spoke eloquently about how we meet today's threats in a way that are consistent with our values, including the rule of law. (President Barak Obama, October 18, 2013, The White House)

Considering that President Obama stated in the 2014 State of the Union Address this January that  "…  no challenge — no challenge — poses a greater threat to future generations than climate change… that climate change poses immediate threat for national security.”



Is it that President Obama’s choice for DHS Secretary leaving him uniformed to the immediate threats on our national security regarding Islamic terrorists?

Jeh Johnson was placed at the head of DHS for aiding the enemy! Then it must be asked if it is his personal ambition to continue aiding Islamist terrorists?

Just two months ago, that answer was given. Jeh Johnson accepted an award from the Muslim Public Affairs Council. MPAC is an entity known to everyone who has studied terrorism, as a front for the Muslim Brotherhood in North America. Taking an award from a Muslim Brotherhood entity when it has issued a threat against Americans in Egypt on their own television network reveals the evil nature of this boss of the Department of Homeland Security.  Some may claim he did not know who MPAC are. But Jeh Johnson is in charge of defending America! How is it even conceivable that an average American like me, could be more informed than the head of the DHS?

What was Jeh Johnson’s original purpose in seeking to give constitutional rights of American citizens to those captured in war? Is this not also act of attempting to destroy the American government by making little of the rights of its citizens by granting them to enemy combatants? Or, was his appointment something more sinister? Looking at his speech to the MPAC audience as his received his reward truly revealed that Jeh Johnson is engaged in Civilization Jihad, for it was here he said, “reading the Quran reminds him of quintessential American values.”

Really? In order for Mr. Johnson to see “quintessential American values” in the Koran, he would have to deny many things in our Constitution. It is important to understand that under Islam there is no separation of Church and State. Islam is the government and under this principle examining the Koran, the Sunna and the Hadith takes on a whole new unAmerican perspective. Don't take my word for it. Read just a few examples of what the Constitution states vs. the Koran and decide for yourself if, the Quran does speak to American values.


US CONSTITUTION

KORAN
FIRST AMENDMENT: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof ”

“Those who reject Islam must be killed. If they turn back (from Islam), take hold of them and kill them wherever you find them." Quran 4:89


Quran 9:73

FIRST AMENDMENT: Congress shall not abridge "the freedom of speech.”

Quran 33:57-61

Asma bint Marwan [Blog Editor: here is some more detail on Asma] - Asma was a poetess who belonged to a tribe of Medinan pagans, and whose husband was named Yazid b. Zayd. She composed a poem blaming the Medinan pagans for obeying a stranger (Muhammad) and for not taking the initiative to attack him by surprise. When the Allah-inspired prophet heard what she had said, he asked, “Who will rid me of Marwan’s daughter?”

A member of her husband’s tribe volunteered and crept into her house that night. She had five children, and the youngest was sleeping at her breast. The assassin gently removed the child, drew his sword, and plunged it into her, killing her in her sleep. The following morning, the assassin defied anyone to take revenge. No one took him up on his challenge, not even her husband. In fact, Islam became powerful among his tribe. Previously, some members who had kept their conversion secret now became Muslims openly, “because they saw the power of Islam,” conjectures biographer Ibn Ishaq (d. 767).

SECOND AMENDMENT: "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Sharia forbids those “who are at war with Muslims” It is a condition that someone buying

weapons be of a people who are not at war with

Muslims. (Sharia k1.2)

FIFTH AMENDMENT: "no person shall be held to answer for a capital or otherwise infamous crime… without due process of law."

No Muslim should be killed for killing a Kafir (infidel)” (Hadith Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 9, No. 50).

SIXTH AMENDMENT: guarantees a "public trial by an impartial jury."

Islamic law does not give non-Muslims equal legal standing with Muslims, even prohibiting a non-Muslim from testifying in court against a Muslim.


A woman’s word under Islam is not equal to that of a man in a court also!

Now, we have to ask if Jeh Johnson is a Muslim practicing taqiyyah (lying to protect the Islamic faith) or if he is simply clueless. The answer is sadly not definitive. But then being in charge of one of the US government’s national security should mean that HE HAS A RESPONSIBILITY to know certain things, such as who are the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States, and that they have written a declared mission to commit Civilization Jihad on North America!

Secretary Johnson should have been able to give a kind refusal when offered the award instead of giving the Muslim Brotherhood, through their MPAC award, a sense of legitimacy. But this is not the first time Jeh Johnson has been called out for his relationships with terrorists.

Research on the Islamic State

By Aymenn Jawad al-Tamimi
various publications
April 1-May 15, 2015

Aymenn Jawad al-Tamimi, a research fellow at Middle East Forum's Jihad Intel project, is one of world's leading experts on the Islamic State (IS) group terrorizing Iraq and Syria, also known as ISIS. The overwhelming majority of his writings and translations are too detailed or esoteric for distribution to a general audience, so instead MEF compiles periodic updates providing links and summaries for those who wish to follow the groundbreaking work of this prolific researcher.

For other research summaries and more general interest writings by Jawad al-Tamimi, click here.

Articles and Blog Posts

Is ISIS Islamic? (April 3)
Jihadology
Jawad al-Tamimi argues that IS documents and publications show respect for the four traditional schools of Sunni jurisprudence and that many of its actions, however heinous, "can find a place within the vastness of Islamic tradition."

Translations


Translation and Analysis of a statement from the Sunni jihadist group Jamaat Ansar al-Islam, which was based primarily in Iraq until its disintegration in the wake of last year's IS advance across the north of the country, with elements of its Syria chapter continuing to operate in a limited capacity. The statement eulogizes Abu Ahmad of Mosul, a leader of the group's Iraq branch reportedly killed by IS.


Translation and analysis of a statement by Muqawama Suriya, a pro-Assad militia led by Turkish-born Alawite Ali Kayali. The statement illustrates "growing war weariness among pro-Assad circles" in the wake of recent losses in Idlib province, notes Jawad al-Tamimi, while its emphasis on "popular" and "national" forces "implicitly acknowledges some of the increasing resentment in regime circles that the war effort is too dependent on foreign irregular forces."


Translation and analysis of an interview with Akram al-Ka'abi, the leader of Harakat Hizballah al-Nujaba (The Movement of the Party of God of the Outstanding), or HHN, an Iranian-backed Iraqi Shia militia that emerged in 2013, operating both in Iraq and in Syria via multiple front groups. The interview sheds light on several aspects of HHN, notably its open identification with Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and ties with the Lebanese Shia Hezbollah movement.


Translation of a musical chant (nasheed), produced by IS's Ajnad Media Foundation. One of the "darker" nasheeds, according to Jawad al-Tamimi, with lyrics such as "we sever off heads by the strike of the sword."

Deciphering Chain Email on Islam


John R. Houk
© May 26, 2015

About ten days ago I ran into a comment from a closed Facebook Group I am a member of – watch out America. The comment was in relation to a cross post originally written by Daniel Greenfield. Greenfield’s post was about the idiocy of not naming Muslim terrorists as “Muslims” or as followers of “Islam”.

The comment was remarkably accurate in its assertions that the agenda set up by Islamic considered holy writings. So I copied and pasted the comment to a Word document and saved it for further consideration as a post.

The thing is after reexamination, I clicked the link to the comment on watch out America and the comment had disappeared. I wanted to place a good old fashioned “Like” to the comment before I proceeded with a cross post project. So I went to the name I copied and pasted as the commenter to look him up on Facebook. If the individual ever had a page, either Facebook removed him or he terminated his Facebook account.

So I began to check out the section of the comment entitled “Civilizations Destroyed By Islam”. The first thing I noticed is the exact same and sometimes similar wording was all over Google without any source reference spread out over a number of years. And every post was authored by a different individual. Here are two examples:

Quora - Ameya Vombathkere, I am an Indian first, a student of 12th grade and like to read books on mythology [sic], crime, history, economics, wars and constitutions of various nations: http://www.quora.com/How-many-civilizations-has-Islam-destroyed-to-date

Daniel Pipes Comment section - Submitted by Mulla Sadra (United States), Nov 7, 2008 at 14:39: http://www.danielpipes.org/comments/142377

At this point I embarked on the quest to learn about each of those civilization this much passed around thought (probably begun as chain email) indicted Islam as their destroyer.

I discovered that Islam as a conquering army did not actually conquer and some of these noted civilizations. On the other hand Islam is not exonerated from ending these previously conquered peoples’ customs and religions. Most of these people that were conquered by non-Muslim incursions were for the most part allowed to retain their language, customs and religion (which ironically were already Christian or Jewish in most occasions). When Islamic rule assumed authority over any previously conquered people that was relatively near to the nascent Muslim empire, the people were Islamized and Arabized in religion, culture and language.

Thus even though the outward implication is off in some cases of direct civilization destruction, upon assumption of Muslim power the remnants of culture were eradicated.

I also noticed I could not find the spelling of some of the listed destroyed civilizations but when that occurred I think I made a pretty good educational guess on similar names to implied regions.

The point I am making though is that Islam is actually a cancer-like virus eradicating all that is non-Islamic. I am thinking the agenda of Islam is not deserving of 1st Amendment protections of Religious Freedom in the United States of America. Do you?

Facebook Closed Group: watch out America

Muslims are taught that when they have the power to do so, they are to dominate others, but when they don’t have enough power to do so they are permitted to lie - "taqiyya" - Deception and to live peacefully. When they get strong enough in a society, they are to rise up and overthrow that society and establish an Islamic state. History tells us Islam grew by violence and is held together by violence ... Islam Never Came to Co-Exist. They came to Conquer and Dominate. It’s an evil intention of Invasion to kill, steal ... Stop Islamization of our Countries ... Say No to Islam ... Beware ... If you don’t support Israel today … Tomorrow your lands will become the Muslims’ ... Beware ... No peace as long as Islam Exists this is the Truth... Islam is Evil and Muslims are the first victims of it... IZZLAM IS NOT A RELIGION... It's a POLITICAL SYSTEM FOCUSED ON WORLD DOMINATION …

**********Civilizations Destroyed By Islam**********

These are some of the civilizations destroyed by Islam.

CIVILIZATIONS IN THE ARABIAN PENINSULA:

Lakhmid Kingdom - Christian [Wikipedia & Iraqi Cultural Center – D.C.], Humyarite [or Himyarite] Kingdom – Jewish in Yemen area [fanack Chronicle & Eretz Yisroel], Hadramaut Civilization [Wikipedia & Saylor.org], Hejaz Civilization [Lesson 2 - Pre-Islamic Arabia], Heira [or perhaps Hira] Kingdom Yemenese Civilization [Iran and Islam to AD 1400], Nabatian [or Nabataean] Kingdom [Who were the Nabataeans?].

AFRICAN CIVILIZATIONS:

Carthaginian Empire (Tunis) [Wikipedia - Islamic conquest & African Kingdoms], Egyptian Empire [Actually Christian Egypt: Process of Islamization in Egypt, Muslim Conquests in Egypt and Iran & Muslim conquest of Egypt – Wikipedia], Siranaeek Kingdom (Libya) [I discovered no actual reference to a Libyan people with this appellation other than the numerous posts over the years with the same wording as found here], Nubian Kingdom (Sudan) [History of Jihad against the Nubians – webpage doesn’t work well in a Chrome browser - & NUBIAN CHRISTIANITY: THE NEGLECTED HERITAGE)

ASIAN CIVILIZATIONS:

So sad... This is not a religion... It is heathens trying to justify their sin...

Beware of Muslims acting like the rest of us to deceive ... Allah the "fallen Angel" is the greatest of all deceivers… (Quran 3:54, 7:99, 8:30)

Poke Establishment in Eye – Support Tea Party Candidates

T Party Stands For logo

John R. Houk
© May 25, 2015

There are special elections and primaries occurring now prior to the 2016 election cycle. I found out from a Conservative Campaign Committee PAC that a Tea Party Republican running against an Establishment Republican candidate won in the Kentucky Gubernatorial Primary by 83 votes.

Kentucky businessman and tea-party favorite Matt Bevin surprised the media Tuesday night by winning the Kentucky Republican gubernatorial primary, edging out James Comer, the state’s agriculture commissioner, by 83 votes.

Mr. Comer has sought a recanvass of the results, and a final tally is due next week. But whatever the outcome, there is one big message out of the Kentucky race: If you are an establishment GOP candidate, don’t sleep on the tea party. (Tea Party Wins Kentucky Primary But Bigger Challenge Awaits; By DANTE CHINNI; Washington Wire Blog – WSJ; 5/22/15 6:58 am ET)

The WSJ blog author Dante Chinni pens the similar sentiments of other Mainstream Media outlets reasoning that Bevin’s victory was based on low voter turn-out. Chinni then cites a WSJ/NBC poll that only 20% had a favorable opinion of the Tea Party Movement. The problem I have with the WSJ/NBC data is that anything associated with NBC is often slanted toward the uber-Left. So I have to ask, “Who exactly was involved in taking the poll?” And, “Was the poll even taken from among likely Kentucky voters in relation to the Bevin-Comer Primary?” AND in reality who is to say a higher voter turn-out would have meant a higher margin of victory for Matt Bevin over James Comer?

At any rate the CCC PAC email announcement as expected was an announcement to garner donations for another special election in Illinois District 18 between Republicans Tea Party Mike Flynn and Establishment Darin LaHood.

As usual I am neither encouraging nor discouraging you to donate to the CCC PAC because more than likely other Tea Party organizations will be requesting donations as well. On the other hand you should do the research and which Conservative best uses its donation process in supporting that which you support.

One thing is certain about CCC PAC and other Conservative organizations devoted to the Election 2016 cycle is the info disseminated to the public will be closer to reality than the MSM info. If a Tea Party Conservative is doing well, Tea Party & Conservative organization will tell you and ask for the donations to keep streaming in to keep the momentum rolling. If the Candidate is struggling the donations solicited will tell you more money is needed to offset Leftist and Establishment GOP propaganda. With that bit of revelation below you are about to read the CCC PAC cross post of email sent.

The Wall Street Journal has the report on the great news for the Tea Party movement - as we scored a major victory when Conservative Republican Matt Bevin bested his establishment opponent by 83 votes in the Kentucky Republican Primary for Governor.

Now we have another important battle we must win:  the Special Election for Congress in IL-18 where Conservative Republican hero Mike Flynn is taking on the establishment's candidate, Darin LaHood.

Matt Bevin wins Kentucky GOP Primary

We are so excited about Conservative Republican Mike Flynn's campaign for Congress.  Mr. Flynn was a close confidant of the late Andrew Breitbart.  Serving as editor of BigGovernment.com he helped educate and inform conservatives about the rampant push for Big Government by liberals, the media and the occasional misguided Republican.

Now Mike Flynn is running for Congress and he needs our immediate support.

To help us launch our ad campaigns and Get Out The Vote efforts, we still need 92 more conservatives to step forward and make a contribution of $100 or more.  The reason?  Advertising rates, and the costs of printing campaign materials and running Get Out The Vote efforts are significant, and our opponent in the race is backed by a liberal PAC which receives it's funding from well-financed labor unions.

Mike Flynn is an accomplished constitutional conservative who has been endorsed by conservative leaders such as Erick Erickson of RedState.com and conservative radio host Dana Loesch.

If you can step forward and make a contribution of $100 or more to our independent expenditure campaign to elect Conservative Republican Mike Flynn - PLEASE CLICK HERE.

More About This Important Special Election

You've probably seen Mike Flynn's appearances on cable news outlets such as Fox News Channel and read his columns and reports on Breitbart.com.

A major battle has emerged between our Conservative Republican candidate, Mike Flynn (a close friend and associate of the late Andrew Breitbart) and Darin LaHood, son of Barack Obama's Transportation Secretary, Ray LaHood.

While conservatives are lining up to support Mike Flynn, Darin LaHood received the maximum-allowed contribution from the union-funded Main Street Partnership, who has been described as having the sole purpose "is to attack conservatives in primaries."

National Review reports that this election will be a critically important battle between constitutional conservatives of the Tea Party movement and the corrupt political establishment that keeps growing government, expanding out deficits and compromising our personal liberties:

Honor and Sacrifices

U.S.- Duty, Honor, Country

Here is an awesome Memorial Day message from Justin Smith that honors veterans who lost the lives defending American Rights. Justin then deftly moves to criticizing the Obama Administration’s moral destruction of American military capability through the President’s Foreign Policy decisions.

Honor and Sacrifices

By Justin O. Smith
Sent: 5/23/2015 5:29 PM

"God and the soldier doth all men adore in time of war and not before; when the war is over and all things righted, God is forgotten and the soldier slighted." -- signed by the 16th Regiment of Foot on January 30, 1770

Freedom is the most precious thing to all men and women, and since the Civil War, millions of Americans have placed their lives in harm's way in the defense of God, family and freedom, with over one million making the ultimate sacrifice during the course of several wars from WWII, Korea and Vietnam to the present wars in the Middle East. The empty seats at family gatherings bear witness to this sacrifice by these honored dead, and we the living must be resolved that these soldiers "last full measure of devotion" and their lives were not sacrificed in vain.

Today Americans, who love this country see far too many others, malcontents, more than willing to sow the seeds of strife and discord, as they trample on the American Flag and dishonor the memories of those heroes we honor each Memorial Day. These fallen soldiers would least understand the twisted logic of these anti-American fascists, since our fallen often laid down their lives on the field of battle to stop the enemy from burning their flags, fighting to the death rather than suffer disgrace at the hands of their enemy.

On the foreign front and without any virtue, Obama has dishonored all U.S. Armed Forces members, those living and those killed in action, and their many sacrifices, through Middle East policies that have allowed the Islamic State to grow into a real security threat to America. His hasty withdrawal from Iraq, aimed at keeping a campaign promise, has been a direct factor in the fall of much of Iraq, including Ramadi, and this in turn ensures more long wars of attrition yet to come.

Scores of U.S. soldiers died defending Ramadi and hundreds more were wounded between 2006 and our final withdrawal, and about a week ago the world sat by idly watching as Ramadi fell to Islamic State fascists, who immediately murdered over 500 people and set the exodus of 25,000 Iraqis in motion; during their two month advance on Ramadi, these Islamofascists have forced 147,000 Iraqis to flee to refugee camps.

The images of Ramadi falling to the Islamic State and their black flags being raised has sent a chill through many Americans who fought in Iraq. They are more than disgusted that their sacrifices have seemingly been made in vain, for nothing.

General Douglas McArthur once noted that "Duty, Honor, Country" reverently dictates what each of us ought to be and can be, in regards to finding courage, faith and hope in the face of any crisis. Too many on the Left and too many in the top echelons of the U.S. military, including General Martin Dempsey, no longer seem to have a good grasp on the meaning of these words.

Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey is politicizing the U.S. Armed Forces, and he has become Obama's echo chamber. He didn't send extra security to Benghazi, because he "never received a request"; he never saw evidence of Iran's military fighting in Iraq, even though Iranian Quds Forces have been in Iraq for most of the decade and 20,000 Shiite Popular Mobilization Forces have been there since last year. Dempsey's habit of parroting Obama's policies has resulted in a consistent record of failure.

During October 2014 Dempsey said, "We have a crisis in Iraq" (The Long War Journal), but by November he was telling troops in Baghdad that ISIS is "a bunch of midgets," and several years would be needed to defeat them -- several years to stop Obama's "JV team".

This past April, Gen. Dempsey suggested that Ramadi is "not symbolic in any way" and losing it would not be a major setback, even though it is only 75 miles from Baghdad. Dempsey stated, "I would much rather that Ramadi not fall, but it won't be the end of the campaign should it fall."

Debbie Lee, the mother of the first Navy SEAL killed in Iraq and in Ramadi (awarded the Silver Star), was furious over Dempsey's remarks, and she penned an open letter that read in part: "I am shaking and tears are flowing down my cheeks as I ... listen to the insensitive pain-inflicting comments made by you in regards to the fall of Ramadi. My son and many others gave their future in Ramadi. Ramadi mattered to them. Many military analysts say that as goes Ramadi so goes Iraq." (Iraq is already lost).

Lee went further: "You, sir, owe an apology to the families whose loved ones' blood was shed in Ramadi ... whose bodies were blown to pieces by IEDs and bullet holes leaving parts and pieces behind ... Ramadi mattered to them. ... You and this administration have minimized that Ramadi could fall. Now you are minimizing that it is falling, but you Sir WILL NOT minimize the sacrifice my son Marc Lee made or any of our brave warriors." (The Daily Beast - 5/20/15)

Considering that America has already seen too many of Her Sons and Daughters return home in body bags and without arms and legs, lost in a war that was brought to them unasked for and undeserved -- enough blood to last a lifetime and then some -- Can anyone now honestly say that the mission in Iraq was worth it?

America can honor Her soldiers by praying for peace and working towards peace through strength, because we have seen the deepest wounds and scars of war, as Arlington Cemetery grows. We understand that wars often come at a time chosen by our enemies, but we do not want to fight twelve year wars ever again. We simply want our Armed Forces fully prepared to properly defend Our Beloved America on two fronts and, if pushed to war, to fight to win devastatingly quick.

With the war tocsins sounding across the globe, Obama and the Progressives are destroying the leaven which binds together the entire fabric of our national defense system, and a million ghosts are rising from their white crosses in Arlington Cemetery thundering the words "Duty, Honor, Country.

In case you haven’t been keeping up with the news here’s real Benghazigate info on the dishonesty of the current Dem Party frontrunner for its POTUS nomination – Hillary Clinton - and the dishonesty of the Administration of President Barack Hussein Obama (Actually Benghazi is just one of many cover-ups by these two).

Americans voted Barack Hussein Obama in 2008 brainwashed by the Left oriented American media that his Marxist and Black Liberation Movement influences were either irrelevant or racist lies. Obama was the Liar. In 2012 Obama and his cadres fabricated a story Benghazi lie and American voters bought the lie again. NOW co-liar conspirator Hillary Clinton is denying Benghazi wrongs, her cadres are lying for her AGAIN and the Left oriented media is AGAIN soft pedaling Hillary lies.

Will a majority of Americans AGAIN put a liar in Office just to say they voted for a woman?

Newly Released Emails Cast Doubt on Hillary Clinton’s Benghazi Claims
World News - Oct. 13, 2009

May 22, 2015

Newly reported emails indicate Hillary Clinton was personally made aware of security dangers in the months leading up to the Sept. 11, 2012, terrorist attacks on U.S. compounds in Benghazi, Libya. That’s according to the House Benghazi Committee, which has obtained 300 long-sought emails from the State Department among tens of thousands under subpoena.

The Benghazi Committee says there are a number of emails in which State Department personnel specifically passed along security issues to Clinton in 2011 and 2012 before the attacks. An August 2012 email to then-Secretary of State Clinton from one of her top aides, Jake Sullivan, referred to “some warning signs” regarding the deteriorating security situation.


Clinton has long denied being in the loop about mounting dangers in Benghazi and her agency’s rejection of security requests from U.S. personnel, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens, who was killed in the attacks. Though Clinton was sent multiple cables about security prior to the assaults, she explained that she got far too many to read.

“They are all addressed to me,” Clinton told the House Foreign Affairs Committee in January 2013. “They do not all come to me. They are reported through the bureaucracy.”

The newly reported emails differ from the cables in that they were sent directly to Clinton’s personal email server and, in some cases, were from one of her top aides.

Another question raised by the newly provided emails is whether there was any improper handling of sensitive government information on her personal server. Experts say personal servers lack the strictest level of security and risk being compromised by U.S. enemies.

Last March, Clinton told reporters, “I did not email any classified material to anyone on my email. There is no classified material.”

But today, it was reported that a portion of at least one email provided to Congress is considered so sensitive that the FBI has since classified it to prohibit its public release.

Today, Clinton responded by saying, “I’m aware the FBI has asked that a portion of one email be held back … but that doesn’t change the fact that all of the information in the emails was handled appropriately.”


Clinton also told reporters today, “I’m glad the emails are starting to come out. … I’ve asked to be done for a long time. … I want people to be able to see all of them … it is the fact that we have released all of them that have any government relationship whatsoever.”

Gowdy says he is not confident the committee will get all relevant material, because Clinton has acknowledged deleting 30,000 emails that she said were personal in nature.

“To assume a self-selected public record is complete, when no one with a duty or responsibility to the public had the ability to take part in the selection, requires a leap in logic no impartial reviewer should be required to make and strains credibility,” said Gowdy in a statement today.

Gowdy added that there are “inexplicable gaps” in the secretary’s emails during key times of her involvement in Libya policy including:

·         June 10-Aug. 8, 2011—Time period where Clinton was heavily involved in Libya policy.

·         Sept. 14-Oct. 21, 2011—Dates of Clinton’s trip to Libya, when the now-famous picture of Clinton on her blackberry was taken

·         Oct. 21, 2011-Jan. 5, 2012—Time period when the State Department was extending the Benghazi mission for another year

·         April 27- July 4, 2012—Time period of increased security during which an IED was thrown at the compound blasting a hole through the wall and during which the British ambassador was attacked

Four Americans, including Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty and Sean Smith, were killed in the Benghazi attacks.

Benghazi: The Truth Trickles Out

BHO-Hillary Benghazi Liars

By shawn
05/22/2015

Allegations that the Obama administration lied to the American people about the Benghazi terrorist attack have been in the air for the last three years, but new information shows that these allegations have a lot more bite to them than Obama and Hillary Clinton would like the public to believe.

Two days after terrorists besieged the U.S. embassy in Libya, Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal sent her a memo that repudiated the idea that the attack was the result of a video critical of Islam. According to the memo, there was ample evidence that the attack had been planned by an Al Qaeda affiliate that was merely using the protests as a coverup.

“We should get this around ASAP,” Clinton reportedly told a close adviser after reading the memo. But there was apparently a change of heart, because U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice went on the Sunday shows a few days later, still spreading the story that the Benghazi attack was an outgrowth of the protests.

Later, of course, the State Department and the president were forced to acknowledge that there had been no protests in Benghazi on the day of the attack. Officials and analysts continue to debate how much of a role – if any – the video played in the attack, but it is known to a certainty that it was not the whole catalyst. There is, in fact, much more evidence that the attack was planned as a retaliation for a drone strike that killed an Al Qaeda strategist in Pakistan.

The American people deserve to know why the Obama administration tried to silence the truth about this attack. Were they trying to deflect blame? Avoid allegations of incompetence? Or was it something more sinister? Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice, and perhaps even Barack Obama himself need to answer for these discrepancies, and Congress should accept nothing less than their full cooperation with the investigation. The more we dig beneath the surface on this tragedy, the more it stinks.

It is most unfortunate that the word Benghazi has come to be associated with a right-wing witch hunt in the eyes of the public. Democrats have been successful in denying any culpability, insisting that this is nothing more than political gamesmanship. With the full compliance of the mainstream media, they have brainwashed the voters into believing a lie. And that lie deserves to be exposed.

We’re used to a certain amount of shadiness when it comes to Washington politics, but when American military men and women are dead, we must not stop until we get to the bottom of this coverup. This is about much more than emails, private servers, and multiple devices. This is about secrecy and deception at the highest levels of the U.S. government. And until we know why it happened, no one should think for a moment about voting for Hillary Clinton.

About Total Conservative

A boy gets to go backstage at the circus. Amidst all the wonders, it is the circus’s elephant that surprises him the most. Out there, under the big top, the elephant had appeared mighty and glorious. To see him now, tied to a weak railroad stake in the ground by nothing more than a frayed length of rope, the boy is confused.

“Why does he stay?” the boy asks the handler.

“He doesn’t know his own strength,” the handler replies. “He’s been tied to that spike since he was just a little fella. He learned a long time ago…that’s just the way it is. He don’t try to escape now.”

Our government is like that railroad spike. We’ve grown so accustomed to the great might of the federal government that we hardly question it anymore. Some of us may not even understand that we are being held captive at all.

At its outset, the role of the government was to protect its people. Protect them from foreign and domestic harm, protect their (inalienable) rights from being encroached upon, and protect their ability to pursue life, liberty, and happiness. The current federal government goes well beyond those basic tenets. The U.S. government in the 21st century is a provider. It provides …

Total Conservative is geared towards those elephants who understand that they have outgrown their restraints. That the circus never had the right to put them in those restraints to begin with. It is geared towards those people who want to see the federal government protect its citizen’s rights without encroaching on them in an oppressive and systematic way. It is geared towards people who understand that the very best thing you can say about government is that it’s a necessary evil.

Today’s liberal government goes well beyond … READ ENTIRETY
