House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced Wednesday that Democrats would participate in the select committee to investigate the Benghazi attack.
“What happened in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012, was a tragedy – for the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives, for America’s diplomatic corps, for all Americans,” Pelosi said. “Unfortunately, the Republican obsession with Benghazi has not been about the victims or their families or our country.”
The process should be “in as fair and open and balanced a way as possible,” she said, adding that it “simply would not be possible” if left only to the Republicans.
Democrats joining the committee will be Reps. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, Adam Smith of Washington, Tammy Duckworth of Illinois, and Adam B. Schiff and Linda Sánchez of California, Pelosi said…
…Pelosi later criticized the committee on social media, tweeting this:
The Select Committee is a shameful attempt to politicize the Benghazi tragedy. That is why Dems must participate—to stand up for the truth.
