Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is panning the Benghazi probe that has culminated in a 800-page report that is set to be released Tuesday and that makes the case that the former secretary of state underestimated the risk extremist groups posed to American personnel in Libya.

Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon cast the report as a flawed political witchhunt.

“Far from honoring the four brave Americans who died, the Benghazi Committee has been a partisan sham since its start,” he tweeted.

The GOP-led House Select Committee on Benghazi is scheduled to release its report — months before the 2016 presidential election. Mrs. Clinton is the presumptive Democratic nominee.

“Benghazi panel saw one staffer leave after siding w/ Obama officials mid-interview. Another said he was fired for raising anti-Clinton bias,” Mr. Fallon said.
