Senator calls State Dept. failures a \u201cdereliction of duty\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul has said that Hillary Clinton should never be allowed to hold another public office ever again following the failures and subsequent response surrounding the attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi.<\/p>\n

As hearings into the September 2012 attack begin in Washington DC today, video has emerged of the Kentucky Senator laying into Clinton and calling her failures \u201cinexcusable\u201d in a speech before the Missouri Republican Party.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think her dereliction of duty and her lack of leadership should preclude her from holding any office,\u201d Paul said before a thunderous ovation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think she should read every cable. Maybe from Estonia and Bulgaria an assistant should read it. But from one of the five most dangerous countries in the world, there\u2019s no excuse for her not reading the cables,\u201d Paul added.<\/p>\n

The Senator was following up on comments he addressed to Clinton during a Senate Foreign Affairs Committee hearing earlier this year when he said that he would have fired her<\/a> over Benghazi if he were president, because she failed to read communications requesting additional help and security in Libya.<\/p>\n

At the hearing in January Clinton claimed that \u201dThat cable did not come to my attention.\u201d<\/p>\n

As this report goes live,\u00a0Greg Hicks, the number two to murdered US Ambassador Christopher Stevens, is set to testify that\u00a0US Special forces personnel were ordered to stand down<\/a> as the attack on the US embassy in Libya was taking place on September 11, 2012.<\/p>\n

The scandal may de-rail the momentum that has been building around Hillary Clinton for a potential 2016 run.<\/p>\n

In recent weeks Clinton has been cited as leading several polls of potential 2016 presidential candidates. She has even been tacitly endorsed by the elites at lavish gatherings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That may all change today however.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the dam is about to break on Benghazi. We\u2019re going to find a system failure before, during, and after the attacks,\u201d Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) wrote on his Facebook page Tuesday. \u201cWe\u2019re going to find political manipulation seven weeks before an election. We\u2019re going to find people asleep at the switch when it comes to the State Department, including Hillary Clinton.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fox News\u2019 James Rosen has also reported that the second whistleblower, senior official Mark Thompson, will testify on Wednesday that Clinton tried to cut the State Department\u2019s counterterrorism bureau out of <\/p>\n
