Benghazi Select Committee Chair Trey Gowdy (R-SC) has basically admitted that he keeps the Democrats on his committee in the dark about the work and the motives of the committee.
While blasting fellow Republican Hanna, Gowdy said:
“There are seven members of the Benghazi Committee who are intimately familiar with the work of the committee, the motives behind the work, and the results of that work. Congressman Hanna is not one of them,” Gowdy's statement reads.
Yeah, and the Democrats on the committee are not "one of them" either. Gowdy has apparently forgotten that there are
actually 12 members on the committee!
More below the orange separation device-
Since day one of the House Select Committee on Benghazi, the 5 Democratic members have complained that they have been left out of hearings and depositions, that they have been blindsided by selectively-edited leaks from the committee, and that the hearings are looking more and more like a political tool designed to torpedo the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton. Now here we have the Chair, Trey Gowdy, admitting in a prepared statement that the only members of the committee that are privy to all work, motives, and results are the Republican members!
As I'm writing this, Chris Matthews is making the same point on Hardball!
