Joining us this episode is author of "Fire Alarm: The Investigation of the U.S. House Select Committee on Benghazi," Bradley Podliska. Brad was a staff member of the committee. He is an assistant professor of military and security studies, and also served as an Air Force reserve intelligence officer. We discuss Podliska's experience on why the committee failed in answering any significant questions involving the attack and became more about partisan talking points. Additionally on this episode we cover several major military issues happening now.
