The Few, the Proud, the Disarmed

Prior to that departure, officials said, larger crew-served weapons were destroyed within the embassy, and Marines' personal sidearms were rendered unusable and discarded upon arrival at the airfield in Sanaa. [More]
There have been a lot of denials on this story as it unfolded, including that it happened or that State ordered it.  This seems pretty definitive and pretty shameful, and extremely fortunate that it did not result in obscene and unforgivable disaster and tragedy.

Why do I have the feeling that this goes all the way to the top, and that any action by Congress will be stonewalled as Democrat politicians charge Republicans with conducting a partisan vendetta, and "progressive" media apologists pull the old ignore, then distract and smear shuffle?

Gosh, it's almost like there's a playbook or something...
