Republican Rep. Trey Gowdy suggested Sunday that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lied under oath during the House Benghazi Committee hearing regarding her use of a private email server during her tenure at the State Department.

NBC's Chuck Todd asked Gowdy Sunday on "Meet the Press" if Clinton was a "cooperative witness" during her testimony on Thursday about the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, reported The Daily Caller.

"She answered the questions, and I would note that I don't think I ever cut her off," Gowdy responded. "She was given ample opportunity. So she answered the questions. If that's your definition of cooperative."

Gowdy said that Clinton wasn't truthful when the committee asked her about the terms her lawyers used to determine which of her emails were considered related to official government business and needed to be turned over for record-keeping purposes, and which were considered personal. The Democratic presidential front-runner responded that the State Department already "had between 90 and 95 percent of all [her] work-related emails" in its system even before she gave the department 54,000 pages of messages last December.

Gowdy said he gave Clinton the opportunity to clarify and explain "where the 90 to 95 percent figure comes from. She's wrong about that."

"I've always injected an element of wholeness and completeness," Gowdy explained, "and also truthfulness in the definition of cooperative."

"So did she cooperate in answering the question? Yes," he said. "Was it accurate answer? No."

State Department spokesman Mark Toner also questioned the veracity of Clinton's claim in a press briefing on Friday, reported Politico.

"I'm not aware that we have given that figure," Toner told reporters. "We've not been able to confirm that. I not sure where that information comes from."

Judge Andrew Napolitano told Fox News that Clinton's inaccuracies were like a "field day" for the FBI, who is currently conducting an investigation into her use of the private email server.

"I suggest to you that they found a field day today," Napolitano said. "Remember, she can be prosecuted for misleading Congress as well as for lying to Congress. She is under oath. This is not a political rally."

"I think the FBI has a lot more to go on today as a result of this testimony, because she forgot about that third and hidden audience," he added.
