Gowdy always has an excuse for everything.
Thank God he is retiring.
Good riddance.
I didn’t realize that Comey was a one man Supreme Court.
Am I on planet WTF. Comey gets to set the standard on what is legal/ illegal? Really?
Nice try roosterhead.
Gowdy is controlled opposition just like Darryl Issa and Jason Chaffetz.
Lol
You POS had many of us here FOOLED with your FAKE ACT of being a patriot. "ALL TALK NO ACTION" Trump says and HE IS RIGHT. Gowdy is a Deep State hack masquerading as an American patriot.
“Not by the standard he set in the summer of 2016. God knows how hard it would be to win that case...”
Since when does the criminal get to “define” the crime?
His failure to prosecute Hillary may very well be a crime in itself as he purposely interfered with a criminal investigation.
A criminal gets to set the standard that he is judged by? It should be the written law that sets the standard.
Plus, we know Comey's leaks were intentional. And he did it to interfere in a presidential election and to set up a duly elected president. How is that not "Intential" and "to harm the US"???
“Not by the standard he set in the summer of 2016. God knows how hard it would be to win that case,” Gowdy said in response to a question about whether Comey broke the law. “Remember, he ignored the statute that says ‘grossly negligent.’ He now has a requirement that it has to be intentional and you have to do it to harm the United States. So under the standard that he set in summer 2016 with Secretary Clinton, I don’t think Jesus could win that case.”
What a crock of sh*t from the former, All Star Assit US Attorney. The case was never brought before a Grand Jury, for one. The FBI, or should I say Comey, made the unilateral decision that the case wasn’t worthy. Hell, the case can still be brought before a Grand Jury if our AG had some balls.
When the evidence is presented to a Grand Jury, they make the decision the indictment according to the statute and precedence. Precedence that is set by trials.
Gowdy is just a weasel and nothing but a RINO hack, who wasn’t good for anything but some Kabuki theater during Congressional hearings..
What about all the other folks who have been convicted of accidently removing classified info from their work place? Since the law has now been re-written per Gowdy’s statement, do they also get an out-of-jail-card?
Well heck, we can just retire the Supreme Court and save money by just letting Comey set precedent.
Gowdy clearly is a swamp creature in sheep's clothing. Comey's changing of the law means nothing in an honest justice system. The real question, is there any honest left in our federal justice system. Jeff Sessions, please pick up the white courtesy phone. It's your wakeup call, should you choose to accept it.
What a long term disappointment.
You have GOT to be kidding me!!! Because Comey says intent is a governing factor, we now cannot prosecute for leaking classified info??? Where did my country go???
And people say Im pessimistic for believing no one will be punished and the DS is winning. Case in point right here.
Look in the bathroom. Thanks uniparty
This is BS and Gowdy knows it. The FBI Director does not set legal precedent by their decision to recommend prosecution or not. The law is on the books and Comey could be prosecuted regardless of his previous corruption. It’s like saying a DA who let’s a mobster off for bribery could never be prosecuted for bribery.
WOW! I never thought I would be glad to see him go, but I am. So disappointing.
