Roger L. Simon » PJM EXCLUSIVE: Ex-Diplomats Report New Benghazi Whistleblowers with Info Devastating to Clinton and Obama : More whistleblowers will emerge shortly in the escalating Benghazi scandal, according to two former U.S. diplomats who spoke with PJ Media Monday afternoon. These whistleblowers, colleagues of the former diplomats, are currently securing legal counsel because they work in areas not fully protected by the Whistleblower law. According to the diplomats, what these whistleblowers will say will be at least as explosive as what we have already learned about the scandal, including details about what really transpired in Benghazi that are potentially devastating to both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the tornado victims in Oklahoma. Click here for some ways we can all help them. Turning to Obama scandal news, there is lots of it: Claims that new, damaging revelations on Benghazi will be coming. Also, one of Clinton’s scapegoats is starting to balk at being scapegoated for Benghazi. Even the liberal-ish Washington Post begins to agree that the ‘Benghazi emails were doctored!’ canard has been debunked . Lois Lerner, who “apologized” for the IRS/Tea Party harassment (as if that covers it) and who some insist is “apolitical”, has a history of targeting conservatives from her 14 years at the Federal Election Commission. There she showed a remarkable curiosity about the content of conservatives’ prayers, just as the IRS later did. Coincidence? Americans are becoming aware of these scandals, with 55-56% believing that the administration has engaged in a Benghazi cover-up and in deliberate IRS targeting of conservatives . The scandals haven’t yet hit Obama’s approval ratings; then again, they haven’t been clearly tied to his inner circle yet. 59% approve of *the GOP’s* handling of Benghazi. Adding to the Department of Justice’s spy-on-AP scandal, as of yesterday we have the spy-on-Fox scandal , in which the DOJ essentially criminalizes investigative journalism. And Bloomberg had already reported last year that AG Holder “has prosecuted more government officials for alleged leaks under the World War ...

In 2011, CBS reporter Sharyl Attisson broke the story that Eric Holder knew about the gun sting long before he said he did. This week, Sharyl Attkisson announced that her computers were compromised by the Obama administration. The Politico reported: Sharyl Attkisson, the Emmy-award winning CBS News investigative reporter, says that her personal and work computers have been compromised and are under investigation. “I can confirm that an intrusion of my computers has been under some investigation on my end for some months but I’m not prepared to make an allegation against a specific entity today as I’ve been patient and methodical about this matter,” Attkisson told POLITICO on Tuesday. “I need to check with my attorney and CBS to get their recommendations on info we make public.” In an earlier interview with WPHT Philadelphia, Attkisson said that though she did not know the full details of the intrustion, “there could be some relationship between these things and what’s happened to James [Rosen],” the Fox News reporter who became the subject of a Justice Dept. investigation after reporting on CIA intelligence about North Korea in 2009. On Sunday, The Washington Post reported that the Justice Dept. had searched Rosen’s personal e-mails and tracked his visits to the State Dept. The court affadavit described Rosen as “at the very least, either as an aider, abettor and/or co-conspirator” of his government source, presumably because he ...

Watch Video (Image source: The White House ) BY ELIZABETH HAGEDORN In the wake of the tragic tornado that ripped through parts of Oklahoma, President Obama addressed the nation Tuesday, offering prayers and pledging federal aid. “Oklahoma needs to get everything it needs right away.” "Americans from every corner of this country will be right there with them, opening our homes and hearts to those in need.” (Via The White House ) The president issued a disaster declaration Monday night after a massive twister tore through Moore, Oklahoma. (Via CBS ) While initial reports had 91 people dead, as of Tuesday morning the state’s medical examiner has lowered the latest death toll. At least 24 people, including 7 children, are reportedly dead. (Via MSNBC ) More than one hundred are being treated at local hospitals. (Via KOKH ) FEMA has announced it will provide grants for temporary housing and home repairs, low-cost loans and other programs to help with the relief efforts. (Via KFOR ) While the full extent of the damage isn’t known, it’s expected to come close to what a May 1999 tornado did in the same region.

While much of the news coverage Monday evening and Tuesday morning was dominated by coverage of the tornado that devastated Moore, Oklahoma, Tuesday's NBC Today did manage to provide two news briefs, totaling a minute and fourteen seconds, to the stunning revelation that the Obama administration searched through the private emails of Fox News chief Washington correspondent James Rosen, supposedly as a part of a leak investigation. Neither ABC nor CBS bothered to make any mention of their media colleague Rosen being named a "criminal co-conspirator" for simply doing his job as a journalist. Instead on Tuesday, ABC's Good Morning America devoted a four-minute segment to Michael Douglas and Matt Damon discussing their gay love scenes in a movie about Liberace. Meanwhile, CBS This Morning squeezed in a forty-seven-second news brief on the death of The Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek. read more ...
