Rep. Jim Jordan Will Push for Clinton to Testify Again on Benghazi

U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan will continue to push this year for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and other officials to testify to the House Oversight Committee about the 2012 Benghazi, Libya, attack because he believes she is personally responsible.

Jordan wants to hear from Clinton, President Barack Obama’s national security advisor and former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice, and Clinton’s State Department Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills.

“My frustration is we haven’t had the three witnesses I think are critical,” Jordan said. “We will continue to push for them. I do believe, because there is a group of us that are going to push for this, I do believe they will be in front of the committee.”

Jordan, R-Urbana, sits on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and also chairs the Subcommittee on Regulatory Affairs, Stimulus Oversight and Government Spending. He represents Ohio’s 4th Congressional District.

Jordan on Thursday acknowledged the Oversight Committee’s investigation would continue to intersect with Clinton’s consideration of running for president. He said the Benghazi attack will continue to be an issue for her, but that he’s not investigating it for political reasons.

“I don’t view it that way. The focus of the oversight committee this year is not to bring down the other party. The focus is to get to the truth. And whatever impact that may have on the other party, so be it. People walk up to me and say, ‘I just want to know what happened.’ Four Americans lost their lives,” Jordan said. “Sixteen months later we still don’t have the answers to that. Now, the impact it may have on Mrs. Clinton? That’s up to the American people. It is what it is. Our job is the truth.”

She wasn’t even under oath during her first “testimony.”

Exactly. A distraction while the GOP pushes amnesty.

Good luck.
Here’s a scary thought. What if Rush’s shadow president idea of 0bummer is worse...and if Hitrery wins/steals 2016 that 0bummer has enough Bengazi dirt on Hitlery that he would basically be the president from inside the the beltline.

I would love to see this.

But I also would expect some variation on her “what difference does it make” screeching, lack of memory of what happened if asked about specific events, lack of knowledge of where those Susan Rice talking points came from, lack of personal knowledge about any details, and then a compliant media to say, end of story, Hillary has answered all questions, why are Republicans going on a witch hunt, yadda, yadda, yadda.

I hope I’m wrong about this, but this is what I would expect could happen, if indeed HIllary comes back to testify.

It’s a shame that we must consider GOP actions to be diversions. But we would be fools not to.

This will IMO be treated like Republicans looking to pick on Hillary for no reason by the Democrat allies the press.

Meanwhile the truth is that we do need some light shined on this and for especially all the government witnesses who vanished to come forward and speak.

At least we know it was an issue that there was a lack of security and that Hillary the brilliant one was not competent.

The witch can cry about being a woman and victim all she wants, but she needs to answer for her lack of sound judgment and management.
Why give a proved failure the White House?
