This is an OLD VIDEO

I think it’s a year old.

Let’s say Gowdy has the goods on Hillary and Obama and confronts them. What happens? They resign and we get Joe Biden and more of the same corrupt Democrat actions.

Stupid political BS games.

Since when in America do we not hold those responsible for wrong doing accountable? Since when did we start cowering in fear to hold someone accountable because they might be replaced by someone who might do the same? Why would anyone fear doing wrong?

BS~

Problem here is according to our laws Hillary doesn't have to answer a single question Gowdy wants to ask. She doesn't have to incriminate herself.

Can't a Congressionally-sibpoena'd witness be granted immunity, thus removing the risk of self-recrimination, and then be compelled to testify?

Haven't things like that been done before?

There’s impeachment. There’s also ‘contempt of Congress’ charges Congress can make and also have the Sargent at Arms detain individuals, no?

Impeachment only applies to judges, the president and vice-president and some other executive officers that have to be approved by the Senate. That is an option, but only if they can find enough evidence to support the charges. Since they are still in the investigation process, they do not have enough to support impeachment.

As far as contempt of Congress, that is something they could do for a short time, but would have little long-term effect, I fear. Generally, contempt of Congress charges are referred to the DoJ for prosecution, and this DoJ has refused to pursue any charges from Congress.

I hope that analysis is correct, and in a normal world, that’s the way things would work. The many women I hear talk about her, though, just lock-step their loyalty to their sex.

They want to “make history.” So the presidency is a talisman of some sort, not an office to deal with governance.

You have any idea how much time it requires to secure erase a 4 of 6 terabyte drive?

Much easier to drop them in a bucket of acid or drill a hole in the cover and pour acid inside.

If the DoJ refuses to prosecute, there is nothing Congress can do.

Well they can defund them, but shucks they would be blamed for shutting the government down. Better Red than Dead I guess.

You are correct that Congress does have the power of the purse, but Boehner and McConnell have already surrendered that as a bargaining tool. But you can't really blame Gowdy for that.

"Did Gowdy know Her Thighness was using a private server during his Benghazi investigation? If he did, why has it only come to light now?"

He did mention that there was evidence of her using a couple of private address. His position was/is that what's in the messages was more important.

With a GOP win in 2016, I’d like to see Gowdy as Atty. Gen., and Allen West as SecDef.

I hate to say this but I’m seeing a lot of political posturing on Gowdy’s part with few results. I hope I’m wrong about this.

Yes, results do matter. I'd be rich if I had a nickel for every time Charles Schumer identified and acknowledged problem AND said something needed to be done, then moved on to the next one as people swooned by the fact they he agreed with them there was a problem. But, nothing every gets done.

...Letting information out midway through lets others know what they can and cannot cover up. ...
*******************************************
Right. Gowdy was a Federal prosecutor and knows how to gather as much data as possible before presenting evidence pursuant to charges. ...He’s still gathering data. Give him time.

I can blame him for not publicly demanding that the GOP use the power of the purse. Remember he is not above ducking important votes.
