I know people will come to his defense but lets 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 didnt hold back in slamming both representatives.
This is an embarrassment by Gowdy and Goodlatte, to stand up and pound their chest on television claiming theyre 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? Its 11:59 by the way [a lame duck Congress], its 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 hes Mister Tough Guy. Hes Harvey Milquetoast, for heavens 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 wont be as stupid as Goodlatte and Gowdy have been, said diGenova. I mean, this is as bad as it gets for Republicans.
Gowdy is a Deep State stooge.
BTW DiGenova is not telling you everything that is going down but shining the light where it needs to be.
He can’t use them officially, some kind of conflict they said no before when he was mentioned coming on legal team.
Congress has no power to prosecute on their own. Since the Administration won’t act, it takes a majority vote of House and Senate to take action.
Gowdy, et al, are publicizing wrong-doing, and are bucking GOP leadership to do it.
Inside the current Congress the only one I heartily trust is Rep, Devin Nunes. There are others I am favorable towards, but not completely trusting of.
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.
Barr clearly, fully, publicly and immediately disclosed the criminality of Comey's treatment of the Clinton affair. Who do you think, of those on Trump's list or who were otherwise available, has better credentials to serve as his prosecutor? Credentials that, far and above beyond those used in the courtroom, include a keen sense of politics, such as required for MAGA.
Just like I said that politics is dynamic. The Bushes have changed!
I didn’t think congress had that power. I though all they could do was recommend the DOJ start an investigation. If what I think is true, it’s always been about the theater. Their chance to get on TV and act important.
Having said that, I gon’t have respect for the GOP leaders either. They don’t support the president or his agenda. They are the swamp as much as the rest of them. I have unfounded high hopes that when the documents get declassified that a large majority of the elected officials from both sides, the leadership of the DOJ, FBI, NSA, CIA, State Department and the Obama administration will have been shown to have committed crimes.
Yep - I tried hard to believe Gowdy was actually trying to do something good, but it looks like he’s just a blow hard with good communications skills....
He was expecting results from Republicans?
As in actual results?
You’re absolutely right.
EVERYONE is running out the clock.
Shame, shame, shame on all of them.
None of these clowns deserved reelection the last time, and they CERTAINLY don’t deserve reelection next time.
But you’ll all cruise to victory, and this charade will go on.
And on
And on
And on
Mr. Gowdy will retire and start “Hair-do of the Month Club.”
RINO Republicans believed the Dossier therefore drug their feet. Now that Dossier has been proven fake, they are trying to salvage a career in private sector.
Say no to the Dershbag.
Fake congressman.
The Club is made up of Republicans n Democrats....Gowdy’s bank account increased over 4 million since Pres Trump was elected...
Another Trojan Horse.
The GOP in the House had all of 2017 and nine months of 2018 to unmask the hoax of the Russian collusion story, other treasonous acts, and themselves release the unredacted documents the DOJ refuses to give out, but they pounded their chests and punted.
I agree Nunez is to be trusted and I think Jim Jordan
