For those of you who think Kevin McCarthy misspoke when he admitted that the Benghazi Committee’s only goal was to bring down Hillary Clinton’s approval numbers, what will you think if I told you that another Republican congressman is backing up McCarthy’s statement?
Well, another Republican congressman is backing up McCarthy’s statement.
In an interview with WIBX 950 in New York on Wednesday, moderate Republican Rep. Richard Hanna said House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy was speaking the truth when he said this month that the committee had successfully injured Clinton.
“Sometimes the biggest sin you can commit in D.C. is to tell the truth,” Hanna told the upstate New York radio station. “This may not be politically correct, but I think that there was a big part of this investigation that was designed to go after people and an individual, Hillary Clinton.”
I know, I know. It’s hard to find one Republican in Congress capable of telling the truth, but finding two? This is totally unheard of and I understand your skepticism. But it’s true. The rest of America knew that this committee was nothing more than a very expensive political sham and now, one by one, Republicans are finally admitting it too, that the Benghazi Committee was just dirty politics.
Hillary Clinton is scheduled to appear before this fake committee next week. There will be fireworks. Consider yourselves warned.
