Nancy Pelosi Turns the Tables on Darrell Issa and He Could Be In Big Trouble [View all]

Nancy Pelosi Turns the Tables on Darrell Issa and He Could Be In Big Trouble
By: Sarah Jones
Thursday, December, 19th, 2013

Nancy Pelosi has had enough of Darrell Collateral Damage Issa.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is calling for a high level security briefing on the operations of Darrell Issa (R-CA), the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, in which he would have to be forthcoming about what information he has released and to whom after he got his hands on sensitive documents surrounding HealthCare.Gov. It would then be up to the Department of Justice to make a determination.

Ed Schultz and his panel discussed Pelosi turning the tables on Issa last night. Watch MSNBC’s The Ed Show segment on “Rep. Darrell Issa could face serious consequences after releasing classified information to the public” at link~

Panelist Karen Finney explained that with such briefing, they would learn what Issa released and if anything leaks out, they can determine what should have been out there and what should not have been out there.

Issa finally got his hands on sensitive information about HealthCare.Gov that were it to be leaked, panelist E.J. Dionne pointed out, would make the site vulnerable to a cyber attack and would endanger national security. The release of the information could jeopardize the security of websites across the government, according to cyber security experts from across the administration IT departments.

It’s also the kind of information that someone who had it out for HealthCare.Gov could really use, if they had no scruples and maybe had a penchant for criminal activity. Darrell Issa just so happens to qualify.

The Democrats are concerned.
