earlier this week, the washington post fact checker awarded this claim four pinocchio's. it's worst rating. select committee has spent 17 months and $4.7 million of taxpayer money. we have held four hearings and conducted 54 interviews and depositions. yes, we have received some new e-mails from secretary clinton, ambassador stevens him and others. yes, we have conducted some new interviews. but these documents and interviews do not show any nefarious activity. in fact, it is the opposite. the new information we have obtained corroborates the facts we already knew from eight previous investigations. to provide more detail but they do not change the basic conclusions. it is time now for the republicans to end this taxpayer-funded fishing expedition. >> the terrorist attacks at our diplomatic compound and later at the cia post in benghazi, libya on september 11, 2012 took the lives of four brave americans. ambassador chris stevens, sean smith, len doherty, and tyrone woods. i'm here to honor the service of those men. the courage of the diplomatic security agency and the cia
