Jim Jordan: ‘I Do Think’ We Will Get Answer on Benghazi from Clinton

‘I think the e-mail situation will come up some as well because to get to the truth, you got to have all the information’

HANNITY: “Welcome back to ‘Hannity’. So this Thursday Hillary Clinton will be back in the hot seat when she testifies before the House Select Committee on Benghazi. what can we expect? Joining me now, as the member of the Benghazi Select Committee, Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan, also a member of the Freedom Caucus. Welcome back, sir. All right — lot of questions. Security was denied before the attack that was requested by the ambassador. A stand-down order, according to the men I interviewed that were there was given during the attack, and lies were told after the attack. You know, do you think we’ll get answers?”

JORDAN: “I do Sean. And you — I think you — categorizing then characterize it exactly right. There’s the before, the during the after. And the before, as you said, repeated requests for additional security, 200 security incidents in Libya leading up to the attack, the during, what was our response like? Why wasn’t it there? Why weren’t — questions I [indecipherable] real important questions need to be asked there. And then the whole after the fact, the whole video narrative which we know is false. Questions need to be asked there. And also, I think its is important. We’re going to focus on Benghazi, we’re going to focus on what happened and the four Americans who gave their life for their country that night. But I think the e-mail situation will come up some as well because to get to the truth, you got to have all the information. And we need — we need that information that we weren’t going to get until this committee was put together and we found some of that. So I think all those things are going to be brought up. And it’s — I think it’s going to be a long day. She said she’ll be here until all our questions are answered, because she’s only coming once. And i think it will take a little while.”

HANNITY: “Do you thing that — that she’s lied to the committee in the past? Will she be under oath for this?” 

JORDAN: “Yes. I mean look, this is a congressional investigation. She is going to be in there, sitting at the table answering everyone’s questions, so yeah she — you know, you have to tell the truth in these situations. And we’re going to give her lots of questions where she’ll respond to them.”
