A fired former investigator for the Republicans on the House Select Committee on Benghazi has announced that he will file suit next month for what he alleges was unlawful termination, which occurred in June.

Major Bradley Podliska, an intelligence Air Force Reserve officer now stationed in Germany, has claimed that he was fired from the committee because he wanted to conduct a comprehensive investigation on the 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, rather than focusing on Hillary Clinton, as he alleges the committee sought to do. The would-be whistleblower also claims that the staff retaliated against him for taking leave to go on active duty, which if true would violate the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994.

In a CNN interview set to air Sunday on “State of the Union,” Podliska said, “I knew that we needed to get to the truth to the victims’ families. And the victims’ families, they deserve the truth — whether or not Hillary Clinton was involved, whether or not other individuals were involved. The victims’ families are not going to get the truth and that’s the most unfortunate thing about this.” He added, “I just wasn’t all in on Hillary. I was finding other officials at other agencies that bore responsibility for the post-attack piece.”

Democrats were quick to excoriate committee Republicans. On Saturday, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD), the leading Democrat on the committee, asserted, “These are extremely serious whistleblower charges. Republicans have been abusing millions of taxpayer dollars for the illegitimate purpose of damaging Hillary Clinton’s bid for president.”

Not so fast, says a spokesman for the Benghazi committee. It appears that Major Podliska may have been the one to arbitrarily target Hillary Clinton, which had the potential of undermining the committee’s work.
