Jason "Benghazi" Chaffetz: No need to "probe" Flynn. USA! #MAGA! Boycott Nortstrom! Hi Vladimir!

Key Republicans who held dozens of Benghazi hearings now eager to sweep Flynn scandal under the rug



http://www.rawstory.com/2017/02/key-republicans-who-held-dozens-of-benghazi-hearings-now-eager-to-sweep-flynn-scandal-under-the-rug/

Congressional Republicans who hounded the Obama administration and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over the 2012 attacks on American personnel in Benghazi are not nearly as eager to investigate the Trump administration’s handling of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.

Reporter Jamie Dupress notes that Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R – UT), who is the chairman of the United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, told reporters on Tuesday that he doesn’t see any further need for a probe of Flynn, despite the fact that the White House kept him on as national security adviser for weeks after learning he might have been compromised by Russian spies.

“It’s taking care of itself at this point,” Chaffetz replied when asked if he had concerns over whether other aides knew that Flynn had lied about talking with the Russian ambassador about sanctions imposed against the country by the Obama administration in late 2015.

60-some million of them.

Two decades of hate-radio and the mega-churches have created an army of evil.

If we survive this mess... I hope the GOP suffers the repercussions and they are completely destroyed as a party.

This is freaking insane.

It's dripping from his hair! This is the guy who couldn't in good conscience support trump because of his daughter and then turned sound and supported him. His hypocrisy knows no bounds!
