Benghazi Staffers Spent Their Days Designing Personalized "Tiffany Glocks"
Kevin Drum on Sun. October 11, 2015 1:31 AM PDT
Who said this?
He described to CNN an office environment in which employees spent their days Web surfing and sometimes drinking at work. He said staffers joined a gun buying club for chrome-plated, monogrammed, Tiffany-style Glock 9-millimeters, and some would spend hours at a time at work designing the personalized weapons.
Answer:
Maj. Bradley Podliska, a former member of the House Benghazi committee, who claims he was fired for refusing to spend his time focused solely on Hillary Clinton instead of actually investigating Benghazi. I don't know yet if I believe him, but the whole Tiffany Glock thing sounds way too weird to have been made up.

Glocks are functionally excellent, but not exactly an aesthetic triumph. Blinging them out is like putting makeup on a warthog.
