Navy SEAL reveals identity, claims he killed bin Laden

A Navy SEAL who says he fired the shot that killed Osama bin Laden has revealed his identity to the Washington Post.

The 38-year-old Montanan also said that other SEAL team members were involved in the raid, including Mark Bissonnette, who detailed the group's experiences in his memoir, "No Easy Day."

O'Neill, who had been serving as a SEAL for 15 years at the time of the bin Laden raid, had participated in other missions before - but he said he feared this mission would be his most difficult.

"I didn't think I would survive," he told the Post.

So who is this SEAL and did he actually take down bin Laden?

CNN's Erin Burnett has the latest about him and his account.

Republicans made history on election night, beyond taking control of the Senate. Voters elected a slate of younger, more diverse Republican candidates that include some major historic firsts.

Among midterm winners many historic firsts

Tim Scott became the first African-American elected to the South from the South since Reconstruction. Mia Love is the first black Republican woman ever elected to Congress from any state.

Thirty-year-old Elise Stefanik is the youngest woman ever elected to Congress from either party. Tom Cotton is the first Iraq War and the first Afghanistan war veteran to be elected to the Senate.

This new tidal wave of Republicans will also include several presidential contenders who bring their own agendas to the Hill.
