## Transcript

House Republicans are launching a new investigation into 2012's Benghazi Consulate attack after the release of a White House email chain. There's a firestorm out there across America among a lot of, a lot of Republicans who believe that we have not been diligent in in taking this issue on, and, and this email is gonna confirm all of that. The commission is supposed to be bipartisan, but Sunday, Democrats, including California's Adam Schiff, called it purely political. Chris I think it's colossal waste of time. We've had four. [ SOUND ] Bipartisan investigations of this already. I think it's just a tremendous red herring, and a waste of tax payer resources.

The new scrutiny follows Tuesday's release of an email from White House National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes, the Republican's say proves a government cover up. Anybody who plays politics with Benghazi is gonna get burned. If our Democratic friends are shielding the, the Administration, and trying to protect them, and that the Administration tried to protect themselves because they couldn't stand the truth about Benghazi, then they'll get burned. House Oversight Chairman Darryl Issa has subpoenaed Secretary of State John Kerry to testify in Benghazi before May 21st. Thanks for watching. I'm Zach Toombs.
