Did the Obama Admin Know About the Petraeus Affair in Summer 2011?

Nov. 12, 2012 10:40am Billy Hallowell

Fox News report claims White House Counterterrorism advisor John Brennan knew about affair in summer 2011

Former Gen. Petraeus aide claims that affair did not commence until late 2011

Congress is seeking answers regarding why officials weren’t informed and whether affair posed security compromises

The Gen. David Petraeus saga continues. Following his resignation on Friday from the CIA, attention is now shifting to questions surrounding how long, if at all, Obama administration officials knew about his affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell. The stunning possibility that at least one official knew about the affair as early as 2011 emerged in a Fox News report this morning. However, differing time-lines and claims make this information difficult to nail down.

As TheBlaze noted in a previous report, Fox claimed earlier today that Holly Petraeus, the ex-CIA director’s wife, potentially knew about the affair before information was released to the public. But the more noteworthy claim in the same report is that the FBI was allegedly aware of it as well.

While the FBI purportedly knew of Petraeus’ relationship with Broadwell months before it was released to the public, Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin and Adam Housley claim that at least one Obama administration official knew the details more than one year ago. According to Griffin and Housley, “White House Counter-terrorism advisor John Brennan reportedly was aware that there was a relationship in the summer of 2011.”

Considering the timeline, though, this would raise a number of red flags. At the end of June 2011, the ex-general was confirmed by the Senate to be the director of the CIA. If the aforementioned allegation is true, then the administration potentially knew around the time of the confirmation or directly after.

Now, here’s where the details get a bit murky. In an Associated Press article today, a former top aide to Petraeus and one of his close friends said that the affair did not begin until two months after the former general took his position at the CIA.

Since he commenced his position in September, if this account is true, the affair did not start until late 2011. In this scenario, it would have been impossible for Brennan to be aware of an extramarital scandal during the summer of that year that had, obviously, not yet started.

The claim that the affair commenced months after Petraeus took his position comes from Steve Boylan, a friend of the official’s family and a former spokesman who connected with the former CIA-head over the weekend. According to Boylan, the affair between Petraeus and Broadwell ended four months ago.

The stunning revelations about the extramarital activities of Petraeus, a retired four-star general and perhaps the nation’s most revered military figure, has sparked an outcry in Congress over allegations that the FBI did not inform lawmakers about the probe in a timely fashion.

This morning, TheBlaze reported that a military official, on condition of anonymity, identified 37-year-old Jill Kelley as the catalyst for the investigation that discovered the affair. He said Kelley had received harassing emails from Broadwell, which led the FBI to examine her email account and eventually discover her relationship with Petraeus. The FBI contacted Petraeus and other intelligence officials, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper asked Petraeus to resign.

A former associate of Petraeus confirmed the target of the emails was Kelley, but said there was no affair between the two, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the retired general’s private life. The associate, who has been in touch with Petraeus since his resignation, said Kelley and her husband were longtime friends of Petraeus and his wife.

Members of Congress said Sunday they want to know more details about the FBI investigation that revealed the extramarital affair between Petraeus and his biographer, Paula Broadwell. They questioned when the retired general popped up in the FBI inquiry, whether national security was compromised and why they weren’t told sooner.

‘‘We received no advanced notice. It was like a lightning bolt,’’ Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, who heads the Senate Intelligence Committee, said.

Not everyone was kept out of the loop, though. An FBI whistleblower told House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) in late October that ex-CIA Director David Petraeus had been involved in an extramarital affair and was potentially putting national security at risk, the New York Times reported Saturday.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

  This account is so seriously flawed according to published reports that it makes me wonder if it came in from one of those states that legalized Mary Jane.
  
  The FBI “discovered” all this back in May 2012. Does it take that long for Mueller to place a call to President Obama, or rather Eric Holder? We’re talking about one of the most powerful law enforcement agencies on Earth investigating one of THE MOST powerful men on Earth and folks respond as if to say “No matter.” Nobody tells anybody else anything?
  
  The accounts of what happened are already beginning to sound like the treasonous lies being released about the murders at Benghazi. And, somehow they are all intertwined. I’d imagine that It’s so hard for the liars to keep all the lies straight. Sounds like something VERY big is being hidden like the fact that we were supplying not only weapons to Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria, but that we were supplying the jihadists too!
  
  I don’t know how many real history buffs we have out there, but I just wonder how close we are to the end of the Republic on 10 Nov 12?

  The aide is another liar covering up for Obama. His boss, Petraeus lied to cover up for Obama. What makes you think his aide wouldn’t lie too? This admin is made up of and shielded by the worst mafia in American history.
  
  Now, what I want to know is why the **** Eric Cantor didn’t tell the American people. Allegedly, there was one honorable agent inside the FBI cesspool who was courageous enough to go to Cantor, and he zipped it? If that is true, Cantor is a traitor too.

  @GABBYGIRL; There could be several men ascribed the title of “Greatest military strategist.” I can assure people that General Petraeus is not, nor should be considered in that category. Military successes are evidenced by total domination on the battlefield, and complete surrender by the enemy on your terms as the victor. America has not had such a commander or victory since the second world war.
  Evey conflict America has been in since then has had combat conditions and engagement restricted by the President and Congress. America’s armed forces and commanders are now not allowed to engage in unrestricted warfare( Which guarantees victory ) A limited show of force, and an “exit strategy” -(politically expedient) Is always pre-planned now, before hostilities begin.
  
  Now respective of morality……His(Petraeus) That is a political issue. If we were in a Very Hot War, The President would not give a ratz azz what Petraeus was doing in his quarters. Fact of life, and always has been. Gods and Generals control Men’s destinies. Politicians control citizens thoughts.

  @NEVERENDING – “I’d love to see the medals go and his retirement pay but punishment never happens.”
  
  It always confounds me of the ignorance displayed by those who don’t (or won’t) take the time to learn about something before posting a comment.
  
  First, in the military, one cannot lose their medals – ever – unless it is found that there was an error or fraud surrounding the event that had the medal conferred.
  
  Second, one’s military pay or retirement pay cannot be reduced or taken away except through either Court-Martial or Article 15 Action (Non-Judicial Punishment). But both actions are considered “punishment.”
  
  Regardless, since David Petraeus retired from the Army on August 31, 2011 his military retirement pay is untouchable.

  How are we supplying jihadists? That I would like to know.
  
  I am not a prude. While I know the enemy of my enemy is not my friend, sometimes we must work with them. We worked with Uncle Joe Stalin. We provided 10% of the planes & tanks. We provided 90% of their trucks. I’ll have to check the figures, but the point is that it was significant. Point is the Russians may not have reach Berlin in May 1945. I am not claiming that they would never have reached Berlin. Perhaps a person could wargame it & come up with an educated guess. But if I remember one whole age cohort was basically wiped out in the Soviet Union. They won but that is a grievous wound for any country. What if without such cooperation such as there was the Soviets lost 2 or 3 age cohorts?
  Just be delaying victory in Europe means resources do not flow to the Pacific as early. The Japanese damn near had an atomic bomb. Their plan was to target large naval fleets.
  
  So the point is one sometimes have erstwhile allies that are not friends.
  
  But this is not it. The jihadis & Muslim Brotherhood will be more problematic after victory in Syria than the Russians ever were. I want the ayatollahs gone. Syria falling will greatly speed that day. But if we do it this way, we will rue the day.
  
  I know you don’t want to support the MB or Al Qaeda anymore than I do. I would really like to know how we are supplying jihadis. To the MB?

I’m going off topic here for a moment The United Nations is about to discuss whether it should have the power to regulate the Internet.

Next month, the 12th World Conference on International Telecommunications, or WCIT-12, will be held in Dubai. At the meeting, the 193 member countries of the U.N.’s International Telecommunications Union, or ITU, will consider renegotiating a fairly obscure treaty known as the International Telecommunication Regulations, or ITRs.

The 24-year-old agreement delineates much of the ITU’s rule-making authority over telecommunications.

The hope of several countries is that they can expand the ITU’s jurisdiction to the Internet, replacing the current governing system with one that is controlled by a U.N. bureaucracy.

The member nations will also consider an “Internet tax” designed to collect money from more affluent nations and redistribute it to poorer nations to improve their Internet infrastructure. ITRs do not currently include regulation of the Internet within their jurisdiction, since they have not been revised since the beginning of the Internet communications era.

And by also controlling your Food and water supply and your income(Taxation) and entitlements maintaining and continuing dependency on Caesar and his benevolence. Hail Caesar! Hail Obama!

  @ Max
  
  Not only does the UN want to regulate the internt (read censor), but the also want to TAX it.
  
  My hope is that both sides of the house spurn this naked grab for domination byte UN, and, so far, that seems to be the case.
  
  The UN, which was born of noble and worthy ideals, has been subverted and debased by Marxist/socialists. It is highly partisan towards the enemies of the west, basically a VIP lounge for theives and murderers, and needs to be relegated to the history books. It is responsible for so much misery and injustce in the world as to beggar belief.
  
  Dismantling the UN would cripple those who would turn our planet into a hellish socialist “utopia” and tun our civilisation back towards the dark ages. And that cannot come soon enough for me.

  @WALKABOUT: The Russians had their T-34 medium tank: Cheap, easy to produce and cranked out in numbers vastly larger than German Panzers which were more expensive to produce(yet technically superior). Russian tanks were arguably best in the war, due to sheer numbers made, and combat effectiveness compared to German Panzers or American Sherman tanks given the name(Tommy-cookers) by German Panzer commanders because they were easy to destroy and roast the crew alive inside. I dislike Stalin( Murderer of 40 million Russians) Tyrant to his own people.
  
  The Germans had their “Heavy Water” Nuclear program, toward the end of the war in europe it was well advanced. If Japan even had a Atomic bomb program they were years away from a weapon in WWII. Your “citing” of history paints a strange picture of WWII and the Russian front. German Wehrmacht troops arrived in the Russian winter with summer clothing and even 88mm artillery guns pulled by horses. I hate Russian communists, but they gave Wehrmacht troops hell with their own domestic “Russian”- Aircraft, trucks, and tanks. So WTH are you posting here, about strange “myths” conceived in your own mind perhaps?

  The Military code of conduct…….
  
  1. Provides for accountability in the moral conduct of American Service personnel.
  2. No such standard exists for elected officials in our Government. ( They can “play with interns as a
  siting President, and under oath create their own definitions for sex and morality}
  3. Because the same rules do not apply, A sincere and patriotic, yet uncooperative, and politically
  dangerous to an administration CIA Director can be forced out of his position in a “appalling” (HA)
  (GASP) Sex scandal. Think JFK; Marilyn Monroe, Clinton; Lewinsky, OMG(sarcasm)
  4. Perhaps this was contrived by Petraeus himself, as a way out of Obama’s corruption, no longer
  to be used as a tool?
  When manipulating ignorant populaces, it’s easy to use the message of PH@ckin around to make
  men look “BAD” {Because the elect in Washington hold themselves to a “Higher Standard”} Feel
  free, to puke and laugh at their hypocrisy for the actual “double standard.”
  5. What is the real underlying story, to this story? Hhmmmm…..

Why is this news? Obama is issuing hundreds of new Executive Orders every week since the election, all designed to kill American industry, restrict American freedom, and punish white Americans for being white and this is the best the news can talk about? Really? Instead of looking into why we couldn’t protect our people in Libya, we are looking into why Petraeus couldn’t keep it in his pants? Disgusting. I don’t care about his affair. I want to know which Obama aministration officials are criminally responsible for Ambassador Stevens death. I don’t care about Petraeus’ girlfriends, I want to know what Obama is doing to us with his endless EO’s. I want to know what Obama and Putin are playing at now that the election is over.

  Obama has issued a total of 140 EO’s since in office, far behind Reagan’s 381 and GW Bush’s 291. This stuff is in the public records folks, why do write this crap that is so easy to debunk?

  I don’t much care about this story except how it displays the Chicago style politics of this regime. I didn’t care when Clinton had an affair. I did care that he lied under oath, although my thought is that that is rampant these days. Let’s talk about things that matter – like the fraud this election was. Nothing adds up there. I think when things cool down and folks begin to look at the numbers, it will start to stink.

With the FBI sitting on this until after the election, who can you trust now…ever…? (And I have a hard time believing the affair occurred only AFTER his appointment to the CIA and after Broadwell finished her extensive research. Yeah, right).

Here’s how I think this all played out: the White House, i.e. Valerie Jarrett, was told about the affair. In typical Chicago politics fashion, she decided to hold onto the information for further use. Along comes the debacle in Lybia and she decides to now throw this information out there for two reasons: it makes the focus of Lybia fall on the CIA and an intelligence failure and it provides the administration with a scapegoat. Petraeus will take the fall for Lybia and move on and Obama will come out of this latest scandal unscathed. It also serves to get rid of Petraeus who was never one of them anyway.

But if you cite open sources like “wiki,” and list an event that isn’t relative to the: Obama/Benghazi issue. What are you accomplishing other than talking out of your sphincter? You said nothing pertinent regarding the Johnson administration. Where is any relevance? You try to appear knowledgeable but appear otherwise.

Is it just me, or does this whole Benghazi story just get more bizarre and unbelieveable every day?

You have to have an amazing imagination to believe the cover stories that have been out out there.
I am not questioning whether Petraus had an affair, but the timing indicates to me at least that this was a probably premeditated attack on his credibility prior to testifying before Congress.And if the FBI or anyone else knew about this affiar earlier, it was their moral obligation to out him immediately in the interest of national security……Unless of course the card was being held to be played later when needed.

Okay, so Glenn goes on the radio begging for subscribers. Fine. His show, his plan, his money. BUT, I have to ask, why would people want to subscribe when their posts keep getting zapped. I know I’m not the only one. There have been plenty. I didn’t curse, I didn’t call names. I didn’t use sexual innuendo. I used the “s” word. (gasp) I said secession. Is that it? Does that get your post deleted?

Furthermore, Blaze, how about some rules of the road. Why don’t you publish something to let us know what is and is not acceptable with maybe an explanation to go with it? No? Just going to make decisions in ivory towers? Fine. Again, your money, your website. I get it.

So why would we subscribe again?

Apparently the general went to Libya himself to sort out what was going on. IT SEEMS THE WHITE HOUSE WAS SECRETLY RUNNING THE CIA WHILE KEEPING THE CIA LEADER IN THE DARK.

If I were Petraeus, I’d testify to Congress immediately, before Obama kills me.

Obama makes Nixon look like Shirley Temple.

Do not let this distract us from Benghazi!

This looks like a “Chicago Setup” to me…they only squeeze when it is beneficial to their cause otherwise it’s business as usual.

So what difference does it make? Nothing is going to happen and this type of behavior will go on and on because only one thing matters to this administration and all the Chicago thugs and that is to take down this country and what a better way to do it or I should say one of the many ways they will use to do it.

” An FBI whistleblower told HOUSE Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R.VA. ) in late October “….oh, let me guess : Cantor is going under the bus ????? Is this what Obama meant when he said to tell Putin he ” could be more flexible after the election ” ???? The FBI is now Obama’s KGB ?? THIS WHITE HOUSE STINKS TO HIGH HEAVEN. Congress, DO SOMETHING. The American people had had it with the Obama thugs.

  What exactly do you expect Congress to do? What can they do? Defund the CIA? Hold Impeachment hearings? They might as well put on Wizard hats and cast Harry Potter spells at the Administration for all the good it would do. This is what we have. There is no check, there is no balance, welcome to Oceania.
  
  USA RIP

Destroy the most respected military leader and credibility of the military. Play this card at the right time.

Glenn Beck’s sources are so good, what we all need to know is why Mr. Beck was keeping this news secret?

Why won’t the MSM ask Mr. Beck this about this?

And why won’t Mr. Beck answer this question?

  You’re a total schmuck. Seriously. A cover up of massive proportion and you’re concern is Glenn Beck’s timing. You simply can’t fix stupid.

  Of course it’s Beck’s fault. My gosh there are only 22 liberal news outlets out there.

  I can’t ask him myself. He won’t take calls. He won’t engage anyone not a sycophant.

  Yes Bush and Cheney may be behind this whole scandal.
  
  Why won’t Dick Cheney tell us how long he has known this woman?
  
  What is the MSM trying to hide?

He either knew of it or ordered it to be set up so as to allow for the complete discrediting of the good general. This will allow Napoletano to be put over the CIA and merge it even tighter to Homeland Security; and to discredit him before he can testify to the Congress.

Obama is going to need to address this issue. I guess Jay Leno should be expecting a phone call.

  Hey Gonzo, happy Monday.
  
  Owebama doesn’t have to do squat. The media will carry his water and the morally complicit will look the other way. He has 100% impunity. He’s untouchable. He could have fired the mortar himself at that compound and it STILL wouldn’t matter.

  AGREEING_WITH_THE_KNAVE . . . Yeah,impunity, isn’t it great? It’s as if Cheney were still president. Now before you go off about “Benghazi wouldn’t have happened under Cheney, remember, Halliburton showers killed more troops than Benghazi terrorists.

  I know Roth. It’s sickening. He’ll go on The View and tell the country how tragic the whole thing is and that will be the end of it. FORWARD!

  Well, at least you agree with me Wango. Nice try to do the old associate to someone else that is tainted to avoid taking on the real argument. This has not one thing to do with Bush, Cheney, or Haliburton. Furthermore, your logic only applies to Bush era right? We don’t talk about Clinton era cover up or dead SF guys being paraded around Mogadishu because Clinton wouldn’t provide armor. So do you get to set the terms used for this tactic or is it arbitrary? The other problem you have is that I never liked Bush era policies either. Now the problem YOU have is that you’re defending Obama policies (or at least playing coy to leave yourself an exit to say “when did I defend them” which is not the least bit obvious) but attacking Bush era policies when they are essentially the same thing. I have trouble understanding your posts because I can’t see past all the hypocrisy.
