Trey Gowdy Says He Found Classified Info in Clinton Email--CIA Says Not So.

"Trey Gowdy, the chair of the Select Committee on Benghazi, leveled a very serious charge against Hillary Clinton in an October 7 letter.  Gowdy asserted that Hillary Clinton disclosed the name of a CIA source in an email sent from her private server...

...The Washington Examiner covered the story with this headline: 'Clinton burns CIA Libya contact.'

This does not appear to be true.

A letter from Elijah Cummings, the ranking Democrat on the committee, reveals that the CIA reviewed the email in question and found that the information in question was not classified.

'Contrary to your claims, the CIA yesterday informed both the Republican and Democratic staffs of the Select Committee that they do not consider the information you highlighted in your letter to be classified...'"

eye'm thynkin':  Poor Trey Gowdy.  How's a fella gonna smear a political rival when the CIA won't cooperate?

Give it up, Republicans.  You are not fooling anyone, except maybe a couple of pinheads who still think the earth is flat and dinosaurs were milked by humans to make cheese.
