Fox News<\/a> is reporting today that emails obtained by Citizens United<\/a> as part of its ongoing Freedom of Information Act<\/a> request to the State Department<\/a> show collusion between Hillary Clinton<\/a> and the Democrats of the Senate Committee that was investigating Benghazi<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is a screen shot of the emails (taken from the Fox News article):<\/p>\n

\"emailsBenghaziHearing\"<\/a>So Senator Menendez was not interested in finding out what actually happened at Behghazi–he was interested in advancing Hillary’s political ambitions. I know there were people on that committee that cared about the truth, but they were blocked by committee members that were playing politics.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The emails were obtained by the group Citizens United as part of its ongoing Freedom of Information Act request to the State Department for emails from Chelsea Clinton<\/a> and Hillary Clinton’s closest aides. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis email chain provides a rare behind the scenes look at which Benghazi-related issues the Clinton camp had concerns about going into Secretary Clinton\u2019s January 2013 testimony on Capitol Hill<\/a>, and what they had apparently plotted out beforehand with a Democrat committee member to deal with those concerns,\u201d Citizens United said in a statement. \u201cCitizens United will continue to release all new Benghazi emails we receive through our FOIA lawsuits as they come in — the American people have a right to know the full picture.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fox News asked the Clinton campaign as well as Menendez’s office if they coordinated before the 2013 Senate Foreign Relations Committee<\/a> hearing; what was meant by the term “wired;” and how the email exchange was consistent with the principle of independent congressional oversight.\u00a0There was no immediate response from either.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2013, the New Jersey senator<\/a> — who is now facing federal public corruption charges — at the time of the hearing was about to become chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, replacing John Kerry who was in line to replace Hillary Clinton as secretary of state.\u00a0Menendez has denied any wrongdoing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Washington no longer represents the interests of Americans. It is time to clean house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
