State Department Continues to Defy Subpoena, Citing Bogus, Nonexistent Privileges | Select Committee on Benghazi

State Department Continues to Defy Subpoena, Citing Bogus, Nonexistent Privileges | Select Committee on Benghazi:

"More than five weeks after that deadline, the State Department has still not complied.

The committee has repeatedly sought this information since the State Department first concocted these privileges 16 months ago. A department official told The Wall Street Journal any discussion of claiming executive privilege is premature, saying, “We fully intend to resolve this matter through our ongoing discussions with the committee.” Despite this pledge, the department has on several occasions failed to provide a response when it said it would."
