it happened before benghazi.you were concerned about this video you have done absolutely nothing after you received notice that the video would be disseminated. you have done absolutely nothing after cairo happened. cairo has happened and you have changed not one iota of your military posture but yet when the attack in benghazi happens which is unconnected to the video, 50% of your action items relate to a video. hang on a second. >> when you talk to members of the committee, different things to deal with, folks will read this report -- 130 days, 27 days, how do you look at the report. how do you deflect that? this demonstrated the highest level, how do you not see that? >> read the report for yourself. if you can read this report and you believe, the last page of the report, that it is about one person instead of four people there is nothing i can say that will disabuse you of that, that is just what you believe. there is no amount of facts or evidence that will dissuade you from your previously held conviction.

the scandal of benghazi. the thing i take away and that has been mentioned by previous speakers is this jarring contrast between the and genuity and the heroism and the initiative that was taking place at benghazi. you can read these communications and understand the urgency of what they were dealing with and it's overwhelming sense of othersibility to rescue americans. meanwhile, across the ocean, almost a disposition of near-fecklessness. the summary of this meeting that a.m.,lace at seven: 30 half of the discussion, half of the readout according to the information we became privy to suggested they were talking about a video. when you read this information you come to the conclusion, at least i did, that they are more concerned about whether or they are going to be offending the libyan government i how it is this rescue is supposed to take place then whether the rescue is actually successful. marinate on that for a second. they are worried about approval. worried about how this will come up. it is clear the

>>> happening right now, the official report on the deadly benghazi terror attack, it has been released just this moment. we have advanced, exclusive access. >>> markets rattled this morning, major meetings between european leaders, the british government in turmoil. the latest fallout from the brexit vote. >>> good morning and welcome to "early start." i'm alison kosik. >> i'm christine romans. it is tuesday, june 28th, 5:00 a.m. in the east. let's start with breaking news this hour happening right now. the republican led house select committee on benghazi releasing key portions of this report on the 2012 attack in libya that killed four americans including the ambassador. during hillary clinton's time as secretary of state. cnn given exclusive advance access to part of the report. chief political correspondent dana bash has gone over that section. she has it in her hands. she joins us now. dana, the house created this select committee more than two years ago. finally this morning, this morning this report is coming out, you have seen some 200 pages of this document. what can you tell

all i can say that benghazi was important. all know what libya looked like at that time post sieve issil war are and conflict. benghazi was important outpost in the civil war with. and no knew that more than chris stephens. and he believed in benghazi. and his was not only assessment that it was important. it was important that we had representation there and that's why we were there and you know, it speaks to be frank here, it speaks of the risk- taking that our diplomats do every day because we need representation in any given place and we need our diplomats to go there and to be forward leaning if you will. we do our best to protect them and try to do a better job protecting the individuals, but we stand by the fact that we needed our people in benghazi. >> so you support the -- you accept more responsibility on the bureaucratic decision making and security posture elements. >> i think we have acknowledged that in the past, brad. a couple of points. we did have and took seriously the request that the embassy made and respon

skbrnchts and here to respond to the house republican benghazi report is democratic member of the benghaziee congressman adam schiff o thank you for joining us. your response, you just heard what the chairman said in focussing very intensively on the military and the deployment order and what he says is a failure to deploy. >> i think there are a couple things very notable both about the report and about what the chairman just said. what he didn't say is notable. and that is there's nothing new here about secretary clinton, and while the chairman tried to make a merit of that, it's not for lack of trying. the committee tried for two years to try to find anything on the secretary that could damage her campaign. and the fact they were unsuccessful is being trumpeted as demonstration of their good faith, and it's hardly that. the other really notable takeaway is that no one could have gotten there in time. the theories that the military was ordered to stand down by the president or the secretary, the chairman wasn't able to corroborate that in any way. >> we have lost our signal from congress

these military assets that were sent to benghazi and to tripoli? the white house has been emphasizing this investigation has been going on longer than the watergate investigation, the 9/11 investigation. it costs a lot of money and they insisted broken no new ground in the force echoing what kristin was just reporting about the clinton campaign, their saying this is all partisan and hate it produce statements by republicans insinuate that as well. a lot of politics. one thing we can clarify a bit. a lot of focus of the report was about the military's role, the military's response, and the pentagon just released a statement shortly saying in part for example that the military was instrumental in the evacuation of all americans who are attacked in benghazi, stabilizing the wounded and tripoli, of course, and evacuating the embassy in tripoli, not benghazi. no explanation for why they never gots there. so that's one of many questions for the white house as to what happened in that chain of command and why those got there. emphasizing that they could n

nothing to reach benghazi because nothing was ever headed to benghazi. despite the order of the secretary of defense. at 7:00 at night. washington had access to real-time information. somehow they thought these fighters were going to evacuate even without the remains. electrician supposed to be investigated? get to you supposed to the annex? who is supposed to take you? and withoutn belief asking the fundamental question of how you are supposed to effectuate this evacuation? washington had access to real-time information. real-time information -- .fter he nothing shows the contrast between what was happening in the document and what was happening in washington than that two our meeting. for some reason the readouts that came from it. it is true nothing would've reached them because nothing -- was ever going towards them. that statement would be true if they attack had taken place at at lunchtime on not12th because at the time turnede wheel had even towards libya. our report starts with the and there is a section on pre-attack decisions made. it is always

but we put together a benghazi special committee, is a select committee. what are her numbers today? her numbers are dropping. why? because she's untrustable. but no one would have known any of that had happened had we not -- >> so that's what i was reading but there it is in his own words. >> yes, ma'am. and i think -- and i can't tell you what kevin was thinking. i just know i heard him many, many times before, but the fact is that our committee did find out about the private server. so when actions have consequences and if her actions -- the consequences was her numbers falling that didn't have anything do with us. were we not supposed to say anything about a private server? no, we want the american people to have the truth so if the truth brought about consequences, there's nothing we can do about that. >> congressman lynn westmoreland, thank you so much for your time. i greatly appreciate you joining me today. >> yes, ma'am, thank you for having me. >> let me bring in ari mel bube who's been poring through the report. it's incredible that you have to

benghazi bomb shell just out moments ago. we have new information on what really happened that night. >>> the focus of this vort wh whwha report is what the families asked us to focus on. >> the breaking new details shaking up an already nasty campaign. >> you want to see goofy? look at him in that hat. >>> his surrogate demanding she take a dna test but the senator is not backing down. >> donald trump says he'll make america great again but when donald trump says great i ask, great for who exactly? >>> and heartbreaking this morning, death of a legend, pat summitt, the winningest coach in history and the reaction is pouring in. >>> we begin with breaking flne on benghazi. we get a look at reaction from the campaign trail. we have andrea mitchell here. what have we learned? >> we learned a lot today. there are dualing reports. there are disagreements between the republicans and democrats. majority says while hillary clinton was serving as secretary of state a lot of things happened that shouldn't have happened. >> for example

cairo happened before benghazi. so, if you were concerned about this video, you have done absolutely nothing after you receive notice that the video was going to be disseminated. you have done absolutely nothing after cairo happened. you with me? cairo happened and you have not changed one iota of military posture. but yet when the attack in benghazi happens, which is unconnected with the video, 50% of your action items coming out of the civics related to the video. [indiscernible] >> 56 days before the election. when we have talked to members of the committee and read through the report, there are different lanes that deal with secretary clinton, the defense and so on. there are folks who read this and say this is a ploy to get hillary clinton 130 days before the election and 27 days before the convention. how do you, regardless of what is in the report, how do you deflect that? some of you have said this demonstrates incompetence at the highest level. how do not get that perceived as -- >> read the report for your

because nothing was ever headed to benghazi. no u.s. military asset was ever deployed to benghazi, despite the order of the secretary of defense at 7:00 that night. >> reporter: at that time, the attack had fiefb hours yet to go. foreign service officer sean smith was dead. ambassador chris stevens was missing and former navy s.e.a.l.s, who would later die defending the base, were alive, but the administration was worried about how the libyans would react. >> there's more concern about whether they'll be offending the libyan government by how it is this rescue is supposed to take place than whether the rescue is actually successful. >> reporter: concern that the libyans would find their military uniforms insulting. he and his marines changed in and out of their uniforms four times. >> if it was your son or your daughter or one of your family members or friends on the ground that night and you watched the actions in washington, d.c., you would have every right to be disgusted. >> reporter: charles woods died protecting state pers

in benghazi. and there are recommendations made to make sure it does not happen again. in conclusion, i want to thank the house of representatives for giving us the honor of our brave,ng four of courageous, fellow citizens. and those that fought so valiantly that night. and it want to thank the six members who are standing with me who took on this assignment, not in lieu of other assignments, that in addition thereto. ourthe women and men on staff who took on, what proved to be, and incredibly difficult challenge. they did so out of the singular motivation of honoring four ideationsse political none of us know anything about. that gave their lives in benghazi. lastly, i want to thank my fellow citizens forbearing with our committee as he went through the process of uncovering the process of new information of witnesses and documents. i hope my fellow citizens will read this report. but for those who sacrificed and those nameless, faceless americans who incontrovertibly saved other american lives t

because nothing was ever headed to benghazi. no u.s. military asset was ever deployed to benghazi despite the order of the secretary of defense at 7:00 that night. so washington had access to real-time information but yet somehow they thought the fighting had subsided. harris: democrats on the select committee are slamming that report saying its only purpose is to damage clinton's candidacy from the white house. from her spokesperson, far from honoring the four brave americans that decide the benghazi committee has been a sham from the start, end quote. chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge live for us in washington. good morning. reporter: the republican majority report identify as for first time a key white house meeting on september 11th, 2012, three hours into the terrorist attack. it included key deputies to the cabinet as well as then secretary of state hillary clinton at the time the terrorist attack in benghazi was on going. foreign service officer sean smith was dead. ambassador chris stevens was missing.

so people understand there was an arrangement between folks in benghazi, the annex in benghazi and the february 17th militia, basically compound protection and quick reaction support, and and it was quick reaction. and the scope, breadth and intensity of the tech overwhelmed what forces were on the ground, i have spoken to that many times in the past. at the end of their attack, this is hours later in the dawn, there was a different militia and one that was referenced in the report being affiliated with qaddafi, did provide escort to remaining personnel to be escorted into airports to be evacuated. that element, during the actual attack it was the february 17th militia that did provide a quick reaction. part of the evacuation plans was contingency plans, for any post anywhere in the world for evacuations. as many of you have known being in hotspots overseas in the heat of the moment, and incidental crisis or battle or whatever and contingency plans had to be reevaluated and it was done and reassessed. >> what speaks to the irony that you had qaddafi military officials, 35 americans get

but the benghazi report comes in today. we learned something. 600 times security was denied before the attack. during the attack, a stand down order was given, and our troops were told to change their clothes four times and we needed, you know, permission from the libyans to actually save americans, and that's what they were discussing. then after we were told a lie because hillary told her own daughter the libyan president, the egyptian prime minister, that it was a terror attack but told us something totally differently. your thought in the last minute we have in this segment? >> it's very straight forward. barack obama for re-election purposes lied to the american people. hillary clinton, as the loyal puppet of barack obama, lied to the american people. there is no other possible explanation of what we have learned. they did it knowingly. they did it deliberately. they did it with cruelty that's unimaginable. and in her case, she lied to the families who lost loved ones, and we now know today it was an absolute lie. >> l

today's benghazi report doesn't help her at all. >> isn't part of that not just the benghazi report but being a part of the overall washington establishment, simon? >> yes, i think that's an issue. look, in every campaign you have assets and liabilities. there's things that work for you and things that don't work for you. what was amazing to me about hillary's statement yesterday is she was very public in acknowledging what is probably the biggest challenge that she has in this campaign. despite all this, by the way, she's gaining in the polls, up 6 or 7 points over donald trump. it's been a very bad few weeks for donald trump. despite some of the legitimate problems she has in this campaign, she's doing pretty well and is well positioned for the poll. >> what about that, larry? she's climbing in the polls. >> one thing that would help hillary clinton is if she starts telling the truth. she still refuses to do so and makes offensive comments like the benghazi report was a waste of taxpayers' money. i would love to ask her to say that to the families of those who died in benghazi. she st

talking about benghazi. benghazi is what happens when you lead from behind.he person i blame the most about benghazi is president obama because he rejected additional security. he wanted to prove you could do it differently than bush. he made the consulate a death trap. people went down there in the summer before the attack saying this is a suicide mission. we learned a lot about this report. i'm from south carolina. i'm a little biased. god bless trey gowdy. the democratic members on the committee shouldable ashamed of yourself. next guest jim jordan gave a damning environment. people view hillary clinton as untrustworthy. even after this report they should view her as even more untrustworthy. >> between now and november and january when the president leaves office, is he not going to change his strategy? >> i don't think so. i don't think he is going to make the adjustment that i have been begging for. what have i been asking for 20,810,000 troops to help iraqis inside iraq. a little over a right now. a little more we could actually destroy them. >> don't w

, because benghazi was a very serious situation. keep in mind that we lost four very brave and strong americans. and for us to move to a point where democrats are shut out of a process, where republicans are interviewing witnesses and not even telling us about them, are not sharing transcripts with us, not even creating rules for the committee, issues subpoenas without consultation, i could go on and on and on. and as late as this morning, after the press had had the report -- and by the way, this is a report that we had asked to be a part of and to help to develop, but this morning, we get the report after the members of the press, some of them probably had it for like 12 to 13 hours, at least. so it does concern me. >> congressman, after what you described as essentially an infinite budget, the blank check, they could spend whatever they want, after going 200 days longer than the 9/11 commission went, one of the longest congressional investigations in history, after, as you describe, shutting out the democrats from the process, so

almost three years ago, media matters published a book called the benghazi hoax.t was that obvious three years ago and we're still doing this. it's just amazing. >> we knew a bunch of stuff about the policy failures, the lack of security. so you have to always divide in benghazi, like the real stuff from, the president gave a stand-down order, hillary clinton lied, all of this, that stuff is believed by so many people, they've cultivated it for five years. >> the important stuff we knew by the summer of 2015. the failures, who should be held accountable, and things like that. everything after that has been this mindless pile-on. 33 hearings. that hearing was at least tens of millions of dollars because the pentagon and state department have been very vocal saying, you are wasting our time. you look what happens in turkey, orlando, this country is facing very serious issues and branches of the government are begging republicans to stop this nonsense, but they've been foxified. they're getting their talking orders from rush limbaugh. this is what happens when the re

but the benghazi report comes in today. we learned something. 600 times security was denied before the attack. during the attack, a stand down order was given, and our troops were told to change their clothes four times and we needed, you know, permission from the libyans to actually save americans, and that's what they were discussing. then after we were told a lie because hillary told her own daughter the libyan president, the egyptian prime minister, that it was a terror attack but told us something totally differently. your thought in the last minute we have in this segment? >> it's very straight forward. barack obama for re-election purposes lied to the american people. hillary clinton, as the loyal puppet of barack obama, lied to the american people. there is no other possible explanation of what we have learned. they did it knowingly. they did it deliberately. they did it with cruelty that's unimaginable. and in her case, she lied to the families who lost loved ones, and we now know today it was an absolute lie. >> l

the way you view what happened in benghazi.here are recommendations made to make sure it does not happen again. >> cnn chief political correspondent, dana bash, is on capitol hill covering this. dana, was there new information here. he said it should change how people look at what happened. >> there is new texture and anecdotes to feed into the narrative we have known for many years now and through several investigations preceding this. there is no question, though, that they got a little bit more clarity when it comes to chris stevens, the ambassador who lost his life, his motivations and why he would be in a dangerous place like he was, one examle that they got was he needed to prepare for hillary clinton's visit there. she was secretary of state then. that was going to be a month later. he wanted to go. they wanted to make it a permanent consulate. the bigger question that everybody has been looking at no matter how much trey gowdy wants to tamp down on the question of politics is politics. republicans have many of them have

he was killed in the benghazi attack. patricia, thank you so much for the time and speaking to us on what i assume is still a very painful subject. what is your reaction to hillary clinton's comments? >> very simple. hillary is a liar. deirdre: she is a liar in the sense that it is not time to move on? >> it is, it is desk not time to move on. it has not been dealt with. all they said, all they reported i imagine, i haven't seen the report yet but, all the reporting is what hillary told them. and i say she lied to them. deirdre: it is true from the house committee's report that forces were never sent to benghazi. there have been very mixed messages from hillary clinton on that fact. >> that's probably true. there was nebraska sent to help them. there was nobody taking care of their back. now she put these people in harm's way and did not, did not allow any security for them. this i know. i wonder why? why, why was my son there? he called me by the way. he called me and told me that there was going to be a big problem ther

because nothing was ever headed to benghazi.u.s. military asset was ever deployed to benghazi despite the order of thery of defense at 7:00 that night. >> and the pressure that night in september 2012 was on then secretary of state clinton, who wanted the benghazi outpost to be permanent with an announcement one month before the november 2012 election. >> now they got a terrorist attack, and they have to mislead the american people because it's 56 days before an election. their legacy is on the line, and she has the goddess of history looking over her shoulder. so they mislead the american people. >> the report found the video explanation for the 2012 terrorist attack was crafted in washington by political appointees and did not reflect the real-time intelligence. it was on your show, megyn, four years ago we first reported there was no protest in benghazi and no link to the video. so thanks for standing by that ongoing reporting. >> and you got real push-back for that because you were out on a limb. >> i did at the time. >> and

that benghazi was important. it was important that we had representation there, and that is why we were there. you know, it speaks, to be frank here, it speaks to the risk -taking that our diplomats do every day because we need representation in any given place, and we need our diplomats to go there and to be forward .leaning, if you will we do our best to protect them. we are trying to do a better job at protecting those individuals, but we stand by the fact that we needed our people to be in benghazi. support the presence -- you would accept more responsibility on the bureaucratic decision-making and security posture elements? mr. toner: i think we have a knowledge that in the past, brad. couple of things there, one is we have a knowledge and took seriously the request for security the embassy made and try to provide and respond as quickly as we could to the request for increased security on the ground, i think with a few relative exceptions, and i can get into those if you like, that have more to deal with, fr

>> anger and controversy over the benghazi report. charles krauthammer and i will sort it out tonight. [shouting] >> also ahead, the self-help guru tony robbins may be in trouble as people get burned literally in his hot coal routine. it suddenly a very hot topic. >> caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. ♪ ♪ >>> hi, i'm bill o'reilly. thanks for watching us tonight. you cannot contain evil. that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. no one should be surprised by yesterday's terror attack in istanbul, turkey isis suspected but no matter who committed the atrocity, they are evil. as stated, president obama's policy towards islamic terrorism is to try to contain it. and while speaking to avoid the actual description islamic terrorism. mr. obama killed terror leaders with drones. has bombed isis facilities in iraq and syria. has ordered american special forces to disrupt isis activities but it is not enough. the solution to defeating isis to quickly kill as many of them on the groun

clearly those of us in the room were trying to press her on benghazi. take a look at her response. >> i understand that after more than two years and $7 million spent by the benghazi committee out of taxpayer funds it had to today reported the found nothing. so while this unfortunately took on a partisan tinge, i want us to stay focused on what i've always wanted us to stay focused on and that is the important work of diplomacy and development. >> the reality here is that they've handled this benghazi report with a combination of hard work and a little bit of luck, the luck being kevin mccarthy stumbling into that politization of this as an issue, the hard work being the preparation she put into the testimony and afterwards trey gowdy saying at that point they hadn't learned anything new from her, thomas. >> kasie hunt on the road in colorado with the clinton campaign, thanks so much. joining me now is richard haass, the president of the council on foreign relations. good to have you with me. you have worked with the state department as deputy director

nothing was ever headed to benghazi.er deployed to benghazi despite the order of the secretary of defense. >> ... martha: the white house forcefully pushing back against the final report that came out yesterday with breaking news from the house ben ghazi committee, and 800 page report which if you want to understand all this, among other shocking findings, the inner obama circle new that it was a planned terror attack but pushed the narrative about a protest over an anti-muslim video on the internet simultaneously and there are numerous accounts of how many people gave out different versions privately and publicly in this report. the white house denies that chart. >> there was no political effort to manipulate the information. there is no evidence to substantiate that claim. i recognize it has not prevented republicans from continuing to make that claim but they do that without any shred of evidence. >> south carolina chairman trey gaudi joins us now, welcome to "happening now". your reaction to what josh earnest had to

to benghazi. >> reporter: the benghazi committee's seven republicans painted a picture today of u.s. diplomats forsaken by an inattentive state department and hapless u.s. their 800-page report reveals that on the night of the attack, it took more than two hours for the defense secretary's deployment orders to reach nearby combatant commands. one platoon commander in spain described how "he and his marines changed in and out of their uniforms four times, "as instructions from the top kept changing. committee chairman trey gowdy. >> there were only three assets that made it to benghazi, two unarmed drones and the team from tripoli who deployed themselves. >> reporter: the committee interviewed a series of second clinton top aides and famously grilled her for 11 hours. but the report does not shed significant new light on clinton's handling of the crisis. >> i understand that after more than two years and $7 million spent by the benghazi committee out of taxpayer funds, it had to today, reported it had nothing. >> reporter: democrats called it a failed political witch-hunt and unnecess
