DC: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton attacked President Trump for not “defending a diplomat” who “has spent his career standing up for America” on Thursday.
Former U.S. Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul — the diplomat in question — was among the group of American officials that Russia sought to question in connection with a fraudulent scheme to launder hundreds of millions of dollars out of Russia to help fund Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
The Trump administration has yet to disclose its position on the case. As Sarah Sanders told reporters on Wednesday, “The president is going to meet with his team, and we’ll let you know when we have an announcement on that … There was some conversation about it, but there wasn’t a commitment made on behalf of the United States.”
McFaul was outraged over the potential idea, as were many in the diplomatic circles of Washington, D.C. Hillary Clinton personally sounded off on the issue, saying, “Ambassador McFaul is a patriot who has spent his career standing up for America. To see the White House even hesitate to defend a diplomat is deeply troubling.”
The irony of Hillary Clinton critiquing Trump’s lack of a strong defense of a U.S. ambassador was not lost on Benghazi survivor Kris Paronto. Paronto is a former U.S. Army Ranger and CIA security contractor who helped extract the body of Ambassador Christopher Stevens, who lost his life when Islamic extremists raided his residence in Libya.
In total, four American lives were lost in the attack, including two members of Paronto’s team.
Paronto called Hillary “disgusting” for the comments. “Are you f*****g kidding m,e Hillary Clinton?!!!” Paronto tweeted, “You left Ambassador Stevens and us to die in Benghazi then spewed lie after lie to the family members of my dead teammates and to the world to cover it up and now you have the nerve to talk about defending diplomats?! You are disgusting!” more
Tonto is absolutely right and right to be incensed.
What obama and Clinton did in Benghazi is the definition of treason. OK. Maybe just betrayal. But they left those poor bastards to die in a hellhole of their own creation.
Drip hot lava into her eyes, one drop every hour till the demon dies, boil her in oil till done, then feed her to bill. Start process over with bill. Feed him to pigs.
The lying Bloody Bitch of Benghazi.
Never forget. It does make a difference, then, now and forever.
“Defending” to Hillary is a verbal thing. It doesn’t involve gross physical action because that is base and beneath such as her.
She was referring to using words to affect, or in her world, effect the world as she see’s it.
You really need to adjust your perceptions of the reality of the planet if you desire to see things as she does. This is hard for most of us as we have NEVER even been close to the type of power she wields.
The space she occupies, and discount her current circumstances at your peril, is different than we do.
this woman is absolutely disgusting … how can anyone support this?
the Clintons are the worst of a completely bad lot
Regardless of what ever else that drunk Hillary is guilty of, I want to see her prosecuted for Benghazi. Truth be told the bitch probably got the phone call but was to drunk to take it. She should swing for Benghazi and the insulting lame cover up.
Ambassador McFaul, Try this on for a size regarding your little predicament….
At this point, what difference does it make?
If this Ambassador McFaul had not allegedly laundered Russian money to help the Clintoon Presidential Campaign….Hitlery would have said squat….Hitlery has skin in this game….
Kind of makes you wonder why Hitlery’s “collusion” with the Russians is not investigated.

It might be. Trump had to of known about all this shit before he ran. And you can bet your ass he and Putty have an open line.
@bad Brad.
Hillary and her media probably don’t even recognize it, but Americans outright rejected the notion of Hillary as CINC after Ben ghazi. She was electoral poison after that.
PHenry
Agreed. She lost the election the day Benghazi happened.
The thing about Benghazi Is that it was 6 years ago and nothing has been done to charge Clinton. It will go away. I wish she would be prosecuted, but it is not going to happen.
The only punishment for her is that she lost in 2016.
I wish all those who were made to sign nondisclosures (some while still in their hospital beds) would break those agreements — which are probably unenforceable, anyway — and tell all. They were silenced for the sake of criminals.
