How about actually using the investigative powers that a House committee had at its disposal rather than trying for a sound-bite on Fox News? He always seemed much more interested in promoting himself than really proving that crimes had been committed. He is very well placed as a TV commentator where he isn't expected to deliver anything but talk.
With an apathetic House/AG/FBI Director.
If Gowdy couldn't deliver in face of this resistance, what makes you think that he would be more successful fighting the intrenched infrastructure at the FBI?
Hmmmmm he did use the investigative powers. That is why he and Chaffetz were questioning both the IRS and the Hildabeast.
But neither Nunes nor Meadows nor Jordan put anyone in ClubFed. I am starting to see a pattern emerge: the right people have to be in place because the corruption is so entrenched. That means the AG and the FBI Director because the House has given up their authority to arrest.
That is why this election is so important: they have to get the House in order to gain the chairs of all the committees.
Even Nunes by his own admission, said he was surprised the DemoRats took the path of the Mueller investigation and the constant barrage of a Russia scandal without evidence. And that is when he was the chair of the intel committee.
That tells me none were prepared for this, so it isn’t just Trey’s fault. But no one has a solution what he should have done.
I would invite any FR to call their congresscritter ask what options Trey had at the time. They lies are on Youtube and have been there for years.
