DiGenova Calls Out Gowdy, Goodlatte! Both Are Embarrassment To Oversight

I know people will come to his defense but let’s look at the facts. Gowdy talks a good talk but have we actually seen any justice? Benghazi, Clinton, Lynch, Obama and his cronies

Legal analyst and former federal prosecutor Joe diGenova called out Representatives Trey Gowdy and Bob Goodlatte.

Mary Walter talked to diGenova about the effectiveness of Gowdy and Goodlatte and if what they are doing now at the last minute will produce any results.

DiGenova didn’t hold back in slamming both representatives.

“This is an embarrassment by Gowdy and Goodlatte, to stand up and pound their chest on television claiming they’re going to get to the bottom of this. Both of them, both of them are an embarrassment to the concept of oversight.”

“To issue a subpoena at this 11th hour? It’s 11:59 by the way [a lame duck Congress], it’s not just the 11th hour,” he said. “I mean, this is an embarrassment to all Republicans who believe in legitimate oversight.”

“Trey Gowdy punted on Benghazi, took a dive,” said deGenova. “Goodlatte, all of a sudden he’s Mister Tough Guy. He’s Harvey Milquetoast, for heaven’s sake.”

“These people have done severe damage to the concept of oversight, and I can assure that when [Democrats] Elijah Cummings and Jerry Nadler take over, they won’t be as stupid as Goodlatte and Gowdy have been,” said diGenova. “I mean, this is as bad as it gets for Republicans.”

I like Joe DiGenova's no holds barred opinions.

Always spot on.

I need to see bad people sitting in jail cells. Until that happens, I have no respect for GOP leaders in Congress.

Trey Gowdy- full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Gowdy is a back stabbing traitor of the worst kind. He’ll say a few good things which is nothing but set up for the knife going into our back.

Agreed!!k The evidence uncovered became overwhelming a long time ago regarding the treason of several Democrats. How much more do they want?

Rep Gaetz stated these Ryan K street trolls were protecting Comey and Mueller and DC insiders on Fox Business Show last night .

We have a coup and Trump has another Deep state Bush operative lined up as AG .

Trump is digging his own grave with this Bush DC insider .

An insane pick.

Good timing Joe! Maybe if you really desired to be effective you could have mentioned starting the day after Trumps inauguration.

After all just note one thing for me that’s different from Gowdy and Goodletes effectiveness now than it was before Trumps election.

He and his wife both are tough and the Trump Administration would be wise to bring them into the fold. I also think Trump could use Alan Dersowicz!

Joe is right. Whenever Howdy Howdy opens his trap, he’s the master of the five second sound bite. In the meantime, he doesn’t produce a thing.

Mueller is there to distract from the real shady deals going on. The media is in his pocket and even Flake likes the distractions. Real news and crimes are not reported. The beat goes on.

Your assessment is not necessarily true anymore. Remember something that both life and politics is dynamic.

It will never happen because our government and those that run it are corrupt. Trump shook them up for a while but lawyers will end up framing and getting rid of Trump. Nothing short of a Revolution can save America.

The “Club” will always protect their own. Party has no meaning when it comes to it’s members. You protect us and we will protect you.

Get back to me after Gowdy opens up an investigation into
Ivanka Trump like he promised .

Trey Fraud Gowdy is a Ryan Cheap Labor Express puppet so the other one.

He forgot to add Darrell Issa to the list. Another, “look at this shiny object” purveyor. Seems to me Ryan appointed people who took his orders to be loud but ineffective to heart. I so hate RINOs but especially the spineless bloviators we are forced to have driven down our throats by the Swamp critters in the House and Senate.

F Gateway Pundit and stop looking to the traditional government oversight for the solution. Because it was never there from the beginning. I have been telling you all for months. Those who backed and got Trump elected knew that too and I have known since May 2016 that he was going to get elected and few critical cabinet positions would be from my sources and a few other interesting contacts. The whole thing that has been going on is measuring the depth of corruption and identifying as many traitors as possible which is now well along. This problem is going to be solved using non-conventional organizations and methods which are legal. Go to the White House website and look up an EO from the POTUS in Dec 2017 and you will understand finally. Dealing with mainstream media and some of the alt-media is useless.

That is old news. Rosenstein is out of the loop now and kind of just sitting around. Whitaker calls the shots now.
