The House Judiciary Committee will hold hearings in September to determine whether Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton lied about her use of a private email server during testimony before the House Select Benghazi Committee last October.

Judiciary Chairman Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and Oversight Chairman Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah.) co-wrote a legal memorandum Monday to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia suggesting inconsistencies between what the former Secretary of State told the Benghazi Committee and what she told FBI in July.

“During a House Select Committee on Benghazi hearing on October 22, 2015, Secretary Clinton testified with respect to whether she sent or received emails that were marked classified at the time; whether her attorneys reviewed each of the emails on her personal email system; whether there was one or more servers that stored work-related emails during her time as secretary of state; and whether she provided all her work-related emails to the Department of State,” the memorandum states.

This is what I was talking about in my thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028108711

Why can't we be as relentless in going after Trump on his calls for a foreign adversary to commit espionage and for the assassination of Hillary Clinton as Republicans have been in going after Hillary for Benghazi and her emails!

6. they don't give a shit

[guillaumeb]

2. Thus setting the agenda until 2020 for President Clinton.

It will be a never ending cycle of investigations and interrogations to give the illusion that the House is working.

Unless a tidal wave returns control of Congress to the Democrats.

[Stuart G]

4. I sure hope that "title wave" hits..and Democrats gain completel control of Congress.

[marybourg]

32. That's "tidal wave", the anglo name for tsunami.

5. F-ing a-holes

[Buckeye_Democrat]

7. I was RELIEVED when Obama won the nomination in 2008 because...

... I assumed Hillary would have to contend with this nonsense the entire time as President.

Stupid me for thinking they might cooperate with Obama any better!!

At least there was no Obama sex scandal for them to do their typical Spanish Inquisition crap.

[malaise]

8. Not this shit again

[napkinz]

11. they keep up the attack on Hillary re Benghazi & emails, and we let these stories fade away ...

[malaise]

16. I refuse to watch the latest attempt to package this racist fascist

scumbag.

[napkinz]

17. MSNBC and CNN and of course FOX will cover it

They want a horse race.

Have you noticed, commentators on MSNBC and CNN are talking about Trump's comeback, saying that he had a good week, having given three solid speeches, staying on message, blah blah blah?

[calimary]

26. Perhaps there's something WE can do?

Either to mitigate the damage, or head some of it off?

27. MSNBC and CNN and of course FOX will cover it.

9. Zika will be in full epidemic mode by then - Republicans won't care about this nation, as usual.

They never do.

[malaise]

12. I noticed that South Beach in Miami is now on Zika warning

It sure is spreading.

[blm]

13. 1/4 of Puerto Rico will be infected by end of year.

And Republicans want to re-investigate emails…….yet again.

[napkinz]

20. Republican priorities

[Calculating]

10. The republicans gotta go

Literally all they do anymore is obstruct progress and conduct Hillary Clinton investigations. Maybe they should try to repeal Obamacare for the 20th time or something? Expect no progress whatsoever unless the dems retake congress.

[Kber]

14. And they wonder how they ended up with Donald J Trump

They pull this shit and then are shocked, shocked! I say to find out their base is nucking futz!

[Old and In the Way]

15. The point of di i ishing returns.

They been hunting the Clintons for 24 years. The majority of voters know this. At some point, rational voters will see this as simple partisan politics and the pushback maybe in the house elections. i hope more thinking people say, enough of this character assassination bullshit and vote a Democratic House just to stop this nonsense. If they won't do their jobs and work for all Americans to solve the issues that affect the bottom 80%, then they need to be voted out of office.

[SheriffBob]

18. I thought judges were supposed to make the determination

What about separation of powers?

[awoke_in_2003]

[lpbk2713]

24. Don't they ever get tired of wasting money on partisan games?

This crap really gets old.

[Rose Siding]

28. "Why can't we be as relentless..."? Because Looney repubs control the House

That's the long and the short of it.

Besides, Dems leave law enforcement to the appropriate agencies rather than show boating for political purposes.

[napkinz]

35. well, it may be showboating, but they manage to keep the stories alive, in the news ...

they're good at sustaining a narrative

[JoePhilly]

29. The GOP is destroying itself by endlessly trying to ...

... to destroy the Clintons.

[whistler162]

30. SO they come back for that and not ZIKA!

[struggle4progress]

31. Coming up next: Did Hillary kill Vunce Foster?

And later: Is Hillary The Alien's baby mama?

Stay tuned!

[TransitJohn]

33. Surprising exactly no one.

Get ready for 8 years of this if we are lucky enough to win the General Election.
