Democrats on the House committee investigating the deadly attacks in Benghazi, Libya, on Wednesday released a full transcript of testimony by a top aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The transcript includes comments by Mills indicating that Clinton was "deeply engaged during and after the attacks and took action to ensure the safety and security of U.S. personnel, even as intelligence assessments of the attacks changed more than once during this period," Democrats said in a statement.
"After multiple selective and out-of-context leaks mischaracterizing Ms. Mills' testimony, Democrats are now correcting the record by releasing the full transcript to the American people," said Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, the top Democrat on the Benghazi panel.
Meanwhile, a political action committee that supports Clinton began airing TV ads Wednesday focusing on comments by House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy crediting the Benghazi panel with driving down Clinton's poll numbers.
