Did Comey And McCabe Try To Punish Benghazi Defenders?

Benghazi Hero Drops Jaws, Reveals What Comey And Mccabe’s FBI Did To Him

When it was announced Friday evening that former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe had been fired on the recommendation of both the Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General and the FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility, there were plenty of “hot takes” from politicians and media figures on both the right and left.
However, according to BizPac Review, the hottest take of all in regard to McCabe’s termination may have come from one of the heroes who emerged from the deadly 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack, Kris “Tanto” Paronto.
WARNING: The following tweet contains profane language that some readers may find offensive.
Paronto, a former U.S. Army Ranger who was a security contractor in Benghazi at the time of the attack and helped fend off repeated waves of assaults by terrorists at the U.S. consulate and nearby CIA annex, took to Twitter to make his feelings known in regard to McCabe, as well as former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan.
He began with a tweet which eviscerated McCabe’s rebuttal claiming he had been “singled out” in an effort to “slander” him and the FBI in general by President Donald Trump and his administration.

Paronto tweeted, “Slander the FBI and Law Enforcement?! You’ve got to be s—-ing me Andy. You, James and your @BarackObama appointed syndicate brought nothing but lies, politics, corruption & disgrace to a once great FBI. @Comey #AndrewMcCabe #LockThemUp.”
But it was the tweet he sent immediately following that which really garnered attention, as he appeared to indicate that partisan members of the FBI attempted to slap him and the other team members from Benghazi with excessive use of force charges, presumably in relation to their use of deadly force to defend the consulate and CIA annex from repeated attacks.

Do you think it will be revealed that McCabe was fired for more than just leaking and lying?

“By the way, as you’re on your way out I want to thank you, James and your @HillaryClinton supporting hacks at the @FBI for trying to pin excessive force use on myself and my team after coming home from Benghazi. You all are the worst scum of human. @Comey #SorryNotSorry,” the Benghazi hero tweeted.
That astonishing assertion — that he and other Benghazi heroes were targeted for legal reprisal by partisan hacks at the FBI — cannot be independently verified at this time. But it will be interesting to see if any further information in regard to this claim is shared by Paronto or one of his teammates, or perhaps even the upcoming DOJ-OIG report which has been looking into allegations of FBI misconduct.
But Paronto wasn’t quite done yet, as he then set his sights on Comey. He posted a tweet in response to the veiled threat issued to Trump by the former director that Comey’s own version of events would be heard by the American people “very soon” — as in, as soon as his lucrative and profitable book tour kicks off.

“Still beating your ‘honorable’ drum James?? Yea, because your words hold so much truth after lying continually & protecting the criminal @HillaryClinton. Say what you want, I won’t believe a word of it. You have zero integrity which you earned. @Comey #believeyourownBS,” Paronto tweeted.
Nor did he let the more open and unhinged threat against Trump from Brennan slide either, as he tweeted a short time later, “Showing your true partisan colors that you took into the @CIA, a govt organization that should be politically neutral. Being nominated by @BarackObama though it should come as no surprise. You put #politicsbeforepatriots.”
This man knows a thing or two more than the average government bureaucrat about such things as honor, patriotism and service to country, and he isn’t the least bit afraid to let the partisan hacks who have infested the bureaucratic deep state know exactly how he feels about their duplicitous actions.
Hopefully more information will emerge in the near future to validate and support his claim of being targeted by those same slimy hacks in the aftermath of the Benghazi terror attack, now that a nonpartisan and less vindictive rule of law is being restored.
What do you think of Paronto's claims?

Benghazi Might Have Been Different If Security Personnel Were Not Held Back! Why Was CIA Giving The Orders?

'13 Hours' Author: CIA Held Commando Team Back in Benghazi

A former commando hired by the CIA to defend a U.S. embassy post in Libya toldNewsmax TV on Tuesday that he and his team lost critical and potentially life-saving minutes by being ordered to sit idle while the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi was under attack.

Mark Geist, one of five security contractors who co-wrote the new book "13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi" told "MidPoint" host Ed Berliner that his team's account of what happened that night in 2012 should be judged by the fact that it comes from eyewitnesses.



Story continues below video.


"We were there," Geist said of the sequence of events that ended with four Americans killed, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stephens.

Geist was responding to a Democratic congressman who said no evidence exists to support the authors' claim of a stand-down order. According to "13 Hours," the diplomatic annex security team was armed and ready to go less than a mile from where militants were overrunning the post.

"I can't speak for what Washington's doing," said Geist. "Call it a stand-down, call it a wait — the truth of the matter is that there was 20-25 minutes where we were not allowed to go, and had we gone we would've been able to utilize a resource.

"You got six operators that have probably close to 100 years of experience combined in counter-insurgency operations. You have that asset at your availability: Are you going to use it or are you going to hold it back?"

Geist recalled the night of the attack, which is the subject of a special congressional investigation, as "very tense."

"You have Americans on the radio calling for help . . . You can hear the panic in their voice, and our job is to go help fellow Americans — it's ingrained in us," he said.

Two of the dead were from Geist's team, once the ex-commandos finally overrode their sit-tight order from a CIA station chief — identified in the book only as "Bob."

Bob was reportedly trying to round up a homegrown Libyan militia to repel the attackers so he wouldn't risk blowing the agency's local cover.

Geist said the resulting delay was a case of two sets of people with different priorities.

"It wasn't necessarily that we didn't trust him," Geist said of Bob, "because he did his job very well and we do our job very well. We just have two different jobs."

Asked how certain he was that going in earlier would have made a difference, Geist said, "Getting into the 'if' this or 'if' that, there's a number of things that could've happened."

"I do believe — and I know my fellow operators believe — that a better outcome or a more positive outcome probably would have come about, had we been able to get over there sooner," he said.

"Because then you would've had Americans giving back intel of what's actually happening, and not depending on some local [Libyan] national over the telephone for your information."

Another commando and co-author of the book, Kris "Tanto" Paronto, said in a separate interview on Newsmax's "The Steve Malzberg Show" that he was comfortable with the decision to disobey orders.

"I can sleep with that at night. I can't tell you why things were done on higher, I don't know. I really have no idea why a stand on order came from or where it came from besides my local chain of command. Other than that, we did what we had to do tonight," he said.

Story continues below video.


"It's hard to just sit there, it's hard to just sit there, but you don't start arguing and yelling especially with your chain of command because all that's going to do is hurt in the long run eventually.

"Finally when it came to the last straw, you just make the decision and you go. Whether consequences be damned, you got to save Americans and you got save our friends."

Geist told Malzberg:

"Imagine hearing the desperation of a close friend of a family member over the radio calling for you to come help and you're not able to go out there and you know you have the skill set to come over and help them, to do something, to make a difference.

"That's what we do. I mean that's what we're trained to do, that's everything about us. It's to go help others and save lives if we can."
