On Homeland Security: Questions remain unanswered about Benghazi

Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said about Benghazi, "Many questions remain unanswered and I applaud the Select Committee's continued diligent efforts to find the truth." Have there been sufficient investigations to answer questions, or, as Democrats contend, is this issue being politicized? We found seven published reports:

State Department Accountability Review Board report on Dec. 20, 2012
Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs report on Dec. 31, 2012
Five House Committees joint interim report on April 23, 2013 (interim report by Republicans only)
FBI report on May 2, 2013 (investigation still ongoing)
Senate Select Committee on Intelligence report on Jan. 15, 2014
House Select Committee on Benghazi: three hearings & 29 witnesses since its creation on May 8, 2014 (interim progress report released on May 8, 2015)

Whether questions "remain unanswered" is opinion; but the fact is, there has been plenty of OPPORTUNITY to "find the truth. Source: OnTheIssues FactCheck on Benghazi Jul 2, 2015
