Benghazi Democrats release unredacted version of Pentagon email

Published December 10, 2015 2:34am ET



Rep. Elijah Cummings, top Democrat on the House Select Committee on Benghazi, released the unredacted version of an email Wednesday evening that suggested the Pentagon had military forces ready to be deployed to Benghazi the night of the Sept. 11, 2012 attack.

A spokesman for committee Democrats said the email, which was first made public in a redacted form Tuesday by conservative watchdog Judicial Watch, was “yet another example of how conservative conspiracy theorists use bits of information out of context to rehash baseless allegations that have been debunked time and again.”
