Yesterday, House Benghazi Committee Republicans released their report about the 2012 attack in Libya, but it didn’t include testimony from one witness. Why not? Well…

HISTORIC levels of transparency:

Members of the House Select Committee on Benghazi are slated to question a crew chief Wednesday who was stationed in Europe on the night of the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. The interview will take place one day after the committee published the highly-anticipated findings from its more than two-year investigation.

The Pentagon did not grant the select committee’s request to interview the witness until after the report was released, Republicans on the committee noted Wednesday morning. Congressional investigators had asked the Defense Department to provide access to the unnamed witness four months earlier.

We’ve come to expect nothing less from this administration.
