When it was reported that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would not be able to testify about Benghazi because she got a concussion after falling due to a stomach virus, former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton termed it a ‘Diplomatic Illness’. Now, in an op-ed, Bolton continues to publicly apply pressure to Clinton and outlines some […]

State Department accountability over Benghazi worse than thought
Upon release of the Accountability Review Board’s (ARB) report on what happened in Benghazi, it was learned that the group singled out no individuals for discipline – the bureaucracy itself was identified as the party most responsible. There were, however, four State Department employees who reportedly resigned in the wake of the report. Aside from […]
Benghazi’s ‘Accountability’ Pee-yew Board (APB) growing increasingly pungent
When it comes to Benghazi, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton continues to exercise her right to remain silent; the ‘Accountability’ Review Board (ARB) she established to determine who should be held accountable for the lack of security that led to the attack on a U.S. Consulate “Special Mission”, found that no one should be held […]
Responsibly Irresponsible and Insanely Sane
Keith Davies As I view the world and what is happening in every facet of society and politics, it seems everything that should make sense doesn’t. Every proposed solution to an issue will actually make whatever the problem is worse than it was before. Yet, the intellectual elites and the political class seem to think […]
Accountability Review Board’s findings on Benghazi: No one Accountable
The ‘Independent’ Accountability Review Board (ARB) – established by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to investigate the attack in Benghazi on 9/11/12 – has reached at least one bizarre conclusion in its unclassified report. That conclusion appears to run counter to what Clinton herself said approximately two months earlier when asked about the State Department’s role […]
Video: John Bolton says Hillary’s concussion the result of a ‘Diplomatic Illness’
Last month, Bolton actually sided with Clinton when the Secretary of State traveled to Australia while others alleged that she did so in order to avoid testifying about Benghazi but he doesn’t seem to be buying the concussion was caused by passing out, which was caused by dehydration, which was caused by a stomach virus […]
Hillary’s fortuitous fall from her Benghazi Stonewall
**UPDATE to the post below** It was first reported that Hillary Clinton suffered a concussion on Saturday, December 15th. CNN is now reporting that the fall / concussion happened “earlier in the week”. ————- The alleged fainting spell and subsequent concussion of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appears a bit fortuitous, if not downright suspicious […]
Date Set: Hillary Clinton to Testify before Senate Foreign Relations Committee about Benghazi on December 20th **UPDATE**
**UPDATE** We no sooner posted that the date for Hillary to testify was confirmed when it was learned via Foreign Policy that the State Department says it is not a done deal that she will. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will be in front of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Chaired by none other than […]
McCarthy: this Egyptian mess was easy to predict
One day, people like Andrew McCarthy will be listened to by the know-it-alls but that day will come much later than it should. Egypt’s Predictable Unraveling Includes this Hillary / Huma excerpt: Western democracy has Judeo-Christian underpinnings. At its core is the equal dignity of every person. This sacred commitment, ironically, enables our bedrock secular […]
Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi in distress; Obama administration sending reinforcements
It cannot be underscored enough when digesting the story below that the wife of Egypt’s President, Mohammed Morsi, and the mother of Hillary Clinton’s Deputy Chief of Staff – Huma Abedin – are close colleagues as leaders in the Muslim Sisterhood. Barack Obama has also defended Huma. Now, with that as a backdrop, a question: […]
Huma’s influence? Hillary Critical of Israel for settlements; no comment on Egypt’s draft constitution that won’t ban slavery
Yet more circumstantial evidence that Huma Abedin does have the ability to influence her boss (it’s relatively easy to ascertain Abedin’s position on all of this – her family is Muslim Brotherhood). Egypt’s draft constitution, which essentially opens the door for sharia law is met with silence from the Obama administration while Israel’s announcement that […]
Video: Hillary says Israel must ‘demonstrate that they do understand the pain of an oppressed people’
Yes, Hillary Clinton said that Israel needs to show more ‘generosity’ and ’empathy’ toward the Palestinians and that it needs to ‘demonstrate that they do understand the pain of an oppressed people’. Uh, the Jews must demonstrate that they understand the pain of an oppressed people?! Does the holocaust ring any bells, Hillary? Oh, and […]
Video: Did Hillary out-do Bill’s ‘meaning of is, is’ Gaffe over Benghazi question?
The following is the definition of hypothetical: (of a proposition) highly conjectural; not well supported by available evidence. When it comes to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice’s appearances on five separate talk shows to give the demonstrably false White House talking points, it’s not hypothetical; it’s fact. It’s also factual to say that Secretary of State […]
Video: Grandson of Muslim Brotherhood’s founder playing the Islamophobia card on France
His name is Tariq Ramadan and he is the grandson of Hasan Al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood. Tariq had been banned from entry into the United States until Secretary of State Hillary Clinton signed papers that lifted that ban in 2009 (Huma Abedin’s influence on Hillary is of significance for obvious reasons). Ramadan […]
Time to revisit Hillary Clinton’s September 13th Speech?
While the talking points recited by U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on September 16th continues to be a point of interest, confusion, and conflicting accounts, looking at the words uttered by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton three days earlier might shed some light on how those talking points got altered. The conflicting stories between former CIA […]
Conflicting CBS Reports on when Susan Rice received talking points
Perhaps it’s time for CBS to reconcile some inconsistencies in its reporting about when U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice received her talking points on the Benghazi attack. Given that Rice’s appearances on five talk shows on 9/16 have become a focal point, it might be more than just a little warranted here. First, let’s go back […]
