Benghazi panel subpoenas Pentagon official who blasted probe

Stephen Hedger, an assistant secretary of defense, will be interviewed under oath next week. Hedger claimed in a letter to the committee that officials could not find one of the requested witnesses — a drone sensor operator who identified himself on talk radio as “John from Iowa” — despite expending “significant resources” to do so.
