SCOTUS, or FBI
This one is weird.
Gowdy always talked a big game but completely flopped on Benghazi. Good riddance. Many R’s retiring. I wonder what’s up, but I have my own opinions on this, left unsaid.
Bush League Republicans are leaving, this is an opportunity to elect people who will side with US and the rule of law.
Trump going to replace him for sessions.
Okay, what kind of predatory behavior or payouts is he going to be tied to? Seems that nearly all of the members of congress that have called it quits since about Thanksgiving are escaping from bad behavior. If I were a member, I sure wouldn’t call it quits right this instance.
He grew to a net worth of 4 million dollars while he was in office. He was compromised.
This is just the swamp being drained.
That is probably the safest seat of the bunch.
Bingo!
Hair raising!
Good! He’s really good at kabuki theater.

Q
I expect he’s heading into private practice to rake in some cash. That seems to be what these beltway theater egomaniacs like Gowdy are all about.
Before writing him off as a do-nothing, people should consider that him pushing the Benghazi investigation was instrumental in the discovery and advancement of the stories about Hillary's email, which turned out to be a critical issue in the campaign. Had Gowdy not done what he did, Hillary might be President today.
Guys, him stepping down is the same as Bill Schuster or ANY of the other republican committee chairs. They are termed-out of their six years as committee chairs. They don’t want to go back to being powerless backbenchers. They are trying to pressure Ryan into being like the democrats so they can amass power with no term limit. I have all kinds of problems with Ryan, but this is one thing that he’s 100% right about. Let them all go! Bring in new blood. The congress and the party need it.
Its a sign to me that the “memo” is going nowhere, and FBI reform or change is not going anywhere either.
people seem eager to declare swamp status on all manner of
people based on incomplete or nonexistent understanding.
that said, Trey always looks to me like his hair is on fire.
