his most important domestic accomplishments by august recess. that s august 1 this year. time is ticking and he hasn t gotten anything important passed yet. paul was touching on it to some degree. offyear is a terrible year. 1994, reagan 82, this goes back a long way. this special election in georgia, in richard nixon s first year, they had a similar situation, secretary of defense held the seat, it went o to a democrat. these elections may not go well, but then there is a rebound from all of this. all the bad news is going to be ready until these things go south. coming up, tomorrow hearings promises to be the latest in a long and storied history to political theater in the mccathery to benghazi and beyond, details on that ahead. [vo] what made secretariat the greatest racehorse who ever lived? of course he was strong.
if it was just this particular incident, then mr. trump would be overreaching. but it s not. we saw that she with the first investigation he s talking, paris, about this particular incident, saying it is bigger than watergate. he hasn t seen the e-mails. right. and i think what i m saying is it is part of a continued pattern of problems with the clinton campaign. if we look how she ran the s secretary of state office, what led to benghazi, people dying, how she ran her campaign, this is a precursor who how she would probably run the white house if, god forbid, she won in a couple of days. we have serious issues. the difference is, this is not someone who should not know better. she s been in the public eye for 30 years and been a secretary of state, the sitting first lady, as well as a united states senator. she knows better. she knows the rule of law. she is an attorney. yet, she still does these things because apparently with the clintons, the rules and the laws do not appl

to benghazi. and you know, i was there when the consulate got attacked and the wall got blown open. at the time there were only two security guys there when that happened that night. but great britain had there. the united nations have left. listening to those guys aggravation. you know, they just don t know why it keeps getting denied. it was a hot bed for terrorism. everybody knew. the state department guys were on the ground. they were trying. the guys were doing everything in their power. eric nordstrom, they were doing what they could to get security there. so now, the stand down order was given. you were told, you knew the consulate was under attack and lives were in jeopardy. and you re saying we re going and you re told not to go. explain. i mean the stand down order came from the chief of ace at the annex. and you know to me it was just
