I liked what I heard from Gowdy. Now remind me, what exactly did he accomplish?
L
What could he accomplish without a Justice Department?
Legislatures can’t perform executive functions.
We haven’t had a working DOJ in 13+ years now!
Howdy was still in the minority party while in Charge congress. However, he is now free to tell us more about what he saw or heard while in office. That is important because he came do early verifications/analysis of the early Deep Swamp attack on Trump and the GOP, and conservatives as well.
He would have been a good SharePoint if he had been in a GOP congress back then.
There us a lot of information that never reaches the public but is selectively given out to journalists such as myself while not violations my secrecy laws. This helps us to get a better background view on what we reported and a better context..
We had to do our own digging and you’d be surprised what we often to found when pointed in the right direction.
In Vietnam, I was in the reverse position because of both historical information I got from conversations with an older Viet Minh general and high ranking NVA/VC field commanders defectors.
One item they said led to our intelligence guys to go further into areas they hadn’t know about and uncovered information about Hanoi/probable Red Chinese heroin smuggling operations into So. Vietnam, where heroin in Sagion in the Fall of 1970 was around 90% pure, something that field labs in Laos couldn’t reach. As far as I now, this information is still classified.
I had to back away from any further research on the story so as to not jeopardize any Intel ops into it. Nice to have high, trusting friends in key places.
Maybe this will come out in future drug production/smuggling investigations now that the House committees are under GOP control and have subpoena/contempt of Congress powers.
