The Benghazi Select Committee holds an open hearing with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Thursday. Clinton has said she is willing to stay as long as there are questions.
The much-anticipated hearing comes as Republicans and Democrats have traded accusations that each side is politicizing Benghazi, the investigation, and Clinton’s appearance. Democrats have argued that the investigation has focused inordinately on Clinton, a dubious claim given the full scope of the committee’s work. But the hearing Thursday will necessarily focus on Clinton since she’s the only witness and it will no doubt have the effect of seeming to confirm the allegations that Republicans too focused on Clinton.
