During a hearing before the House Select Committee on Benghazi, Hillary Clinton shut down Rep. Susan Brooks (R-Ind.) after the congresswoman brought out two printed stacks of emails representing Clinton's correspondences in 2011 and 2012. Brooks demanded to know why the 2012 stack was so short — 67 emails — compared to the 2011 stack that contained 795 emails, and questioned why there were no emails about the U.S. compound in Benghazi in 2012.
