Republican Kansas Congressman Mike Pompeo had some pointed questions for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Thursday. The exchange came at hearing focused on the 2012 attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. Pompeo questioned Clinton on her response.


“Why didn’t you fire someone? In Kansas, I get asked constantly why has no one been held accountable? Why has no person lost a single paycheck?” asked Pompeo.

Clinton responded that a review found four people who had not adequately carried out their responsibilities, but it wasn’t to the level of a breach of duty. Clinton said they did take action. The four staffers in question were reassigned or left the agency.
