Are they going to charge her with a crime? What is the charge, or the likely charge?

Nope. Not yet anyway. According to Real Clear Politics Hillary is the front runner of the Democrats and she leading Bernie by 21 points.

They can't charge her with any crimes, so they will simply keep the smear campaign of political "investigations" going until the election. It works just as well.

It's a violation of House ethics rules to use taxpayer dollars for political purposes. When will we get an investigation of that?

The members of the congressional committee need to be charged with wasting taxpayer money. This concocted investigation that McCarthy admitted to has cost us more than Watergate, more than Iran-Contra, more than 9/11 investigation. At least Watergate led to a president resigning from office. This investigation was a huge boondoggle.

There can be no cost to great to rut out the corruption in DC, meaning there are a whole lot of the top dems who should be in prison. obama deserves thje firing squad for what he has done to America...
Those of you who support the corruption by calling the hearing a boondoggle are as guilty as are the felons..
Why do you hate America??

LOL

Funny and sad all at the same time!
All politicians are liars, regardless of their party. I'm thinking of a governor from South Carolina (R) and a governor from New Jersey (D) as examples.

To be fair, only once in all American history did a president have to resign his office in disgrace. Only once in history did a vice president get indicted in court and had to resign ... and neither one was a democrat.

Nancy Pelosi agrees.

"It's just a stunning admission on the part of the Republican leader, that the Benghazi Committee was a committee with a political purpose in mind," Pelosi said. "It makes the whole operation practically an unethical operation."

How about diverting some of that unlimited budget that the GOP has handed over to smear Hillary and have an investigation of how Republicans in the House have violated the ethics rules against using taxpayer money for political purposes? Now that would be money well spent.

Ethics and Pelosi should never been mentioned in the same breath. They don't match.

So the Repubs were engaged in petty politics in the Benghazi matter. I'm shocked. Shocked.

Actually, as Kevin McCarthy just proved, Republicans and ethics should never be mentioned in the same breath. Unless it's in relation to an investigation of them for violating the House rules.
