South Carolina Congressman Trey Gowdy just delivered a nasty bare-knuckle blow to California's biggest clown, Adam Schiff. These are the verbal beatings we will miss when Gowdy's gone, so we must enjoy them while we can. You don't want to miss this.

Trey Gowdy (R-SC) recently appeared on Fox News with news anchor Bill Hemmer to discuss why Congress is ill-equipped to conduct real investigations into the corruption that runs rampant in the Department of Justice and the FBI. When Hemmer took a moment to ask Gowdy for his thoughts, it got ugly for serial leaker Adam Schiff (D-CA).
According to Daily Caller, Hemmer hosted Gowdy and his GOP colleague Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, after they teamed up to send our do-nothing Attorney General Jeff Sessions a written demand to appoint a second special counsel to investigate the FISA abuse scandal.
A copy of Gowdy and Goodlatte's letter was posted to the House Oversight Committee’s Twitter page and can be seen below.

In a nutshell, Gowdy and Goodlatte discovered that Sessions was trying to provide cover for the deep state crooks who carried out former President Barack Obama’s political surveillance on Donald Trump through FISA court warrants. Sessions previously announced the Inspector General, who has no prosecutorial powers whatsoever, would conduct the investigation.
In addition, the Inspector General would be limited to interviewing individuals who currently work for the Department of Justice and the FBI. Those who have been disgracefully fired, like former FBI Director James Comey, would not be required to cooperate with the investigation. How convenient for Sessions and his deep state handlers. However, a special counsel would remedy this attempt by Sessions to hijack justice.
During the interview, Hemmer asked, "Chairman Gowdy, your letter states, 'Matters have arisen,' what's changed?" to which Gowdy responded, "What changed for me was the knowledge that there are two dozen witnesses that Michael Horowitz, the Inspector General, would not have access to."
Gowdy added, "So, your options are DOJ investigating themselves. They can't do that because of conflict of interest. Let the Inspector General do it. Now, I'm a big fan of Mike Horowitz, but he has no jurisdiction over witnesses that have either left the department or never worked there. So, when I counted up twenty-four witnesses that he would not be able to access, were he to investigate it, you have only one conclusion. That's special counsel."
When Hemmer asked, "Who's on that list?" Gowdy quickly replied, "Oh, everybody from Jim Comey to Andy McCabe to [James] Rybicki, Sydney Blumenthal, Cody Shearer, anyone who no longer works for the Department of Justice or the FBI, State Department, you may recall a couple of weeks ago there was some indication that State Department employees were feeding information to Fusion GPS."
Gowdy added, "They would be outside the reach of the Inspector General. So, anyone who's not currently an employee of DOJ, Michael Horowitz doesn't have subpoena power to go get them."
Later in the interview, Hemmer posed the question, "Those looking on the other side of this may suggest that Congress can go ahead and do this job. What's wrong with that idea?"
Gowdy then replied, "Anyone who's watched Congress over the last twelve months, uh, we leak like sieves and I say we only because I'm a member of Congress … "
"That's pretty common for this town, however," said Hemmer. This is when Gowdy went into "bulldog" mode on Adam Schiff.
"It is, but serious investigations don't leak," Gowdy said. "The executive branch investigations, whether it's your local District Attorney or whether it's Bob Mueller. There are far fewer leaks from Bob Mueller than there are from Adam Schiff."

At some point, Adam Schiff will have to accept the fact that he is the one who more respectable men look upon as a joke and a political reprobate. Trey Gowdy was spot on in his assertions that Congress has too many leaks to conduct any real investigation with integrity and that Schiff is primarily to blame for sensitive information being passed to the media.
Adam Schiff has only gotten away with his habitual leaking because of our do-nothing Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who has only threatened to go after those who leak classified information to the media. Like many other aspects of his job, Sessions is a complete failure when it comes to enforcing our country's laws when it involves corrupt politicians. Thank God for guys like Gowdy who aren't afraid to call out liberals like Schiff when it is warranted.
Schiff always has this weird wide-eyed look. Looks like a fruit...
How about we retire Sessions and replace him with Trey ?
“Schiff always has this weird wide-eyed look. Looks like a fruit...”
He got that look from taking it up his turd-chopper for so long.
Schiff is only a prime example of exactly what one should expect from a total hack.
It’s Sessions who is going to turn into the failure point, I am sorry to say. I have wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and have mildly argued for giving him more time and more time and more time. But I’m arriving at the conclusion that he’s going to busy himself with pot and California immigrant issues which are important but he is thereby becoming too busy to deal with the things that have gone on that are astronomically more urgent. I don’t know if he is protecting the swamp or if the magnitiude of the corruption exceeds his cognitive abilities. But it hardly matters.
He does have the psychotic, bug-eyed stare of a stark raving lunatic. I can't believe the Dems think this guy is a suitable poster-boy for their side, he looks like someone just slammed a huge cucumber up his cronk without so much as a 'by your leave.'
LOL
he speaks from authority with no bit.
I said it before. Something ain’t right with that boy.
I cannot put my finger on what it is but it’s the look in his eyes that makes me say that. No wonder he’s a Democrat.
whack whack! :)
I hate to throw some slang/ghettoeism into the discussion, but the only thing our side does is sell “Wolf Tickets”. It is truly pathetic and it shows our party is not a serious party and the government is so compromised it is essentially worthless to the people.
Hyperthyroidism....graves disease?
I’m leaning towards “alternative lifestyle choices” of some stripe - even though he’s married.
But that’s just a guess ....... A few pics of him the last couple of months or so give me ..... a pause.....
Sessions has cratered, from being a deep disappointment, to becoming a glaring embarrassment, to now a vested Swamp creature protector. (However, that’s only when he works at all.)
Trump is allowing congress to take care of Jeff. They are fairly howling for a Special Counsel and Sessions claims anything but. Today he speaks of commissioning some unnamed gumshoe from the outside to snoop through congressional complaints, inside FBI and JD.
Will he call him an SP?? Nope. So, can he press charges, impanel a Grand Jury, prosecute for trial? Guess not, if he isn’t an SP.
I have felt the same thing: Exophthalmos describing ‘bulging eyes’ when you can see white above iris. Graves disease is a disorder causing overactivity of the thyroid gland often with multiple psychological symptoms.
#3. Schiff was looking at Gowty and thinking/singing, “I Only Have Eyes for You”.
Gowty, looking at Schiff, though, “Oh crap, “He’s Got the Look”.”
To me, he’s got crazy, runaway bride eyes.
