A joint committee from House Ove rsight and House Judiciary are conducting a hearing today at 10:00am EDT with DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz. Unlike the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday the House team has representatives far more knowledgeable of the issues. Hopefully, expertise will deliver better questions.
Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte has direct primary oversight authority over the DOJ. Chairman Trey Gowdy comes from the aggregate Oversight/Reform Committee. Far more House members have read the 568-page IG report. Due to a better informed group of members we are more optimistic for detailed, specific, confrontational and challenging questions to draw out the key issues. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

He should have Sessions job.
She dreams of being Amish and getting a part in the remake of “Witness”.
OMG Jackasson Lee....’Damnit someone get me some Grey Poupon! Now, do you know WHO I AM?’
Issa is bringing the Conspiracy angle regarding the August 2016 meeting in ‘Andy’s Office’.
Cummings displayed clearly how Dems deviate, obstruct and distract....the hearing is about the IG Report on Comey not the lawful Immigration policy being conducted by the Trump Administration....pure grandstanding as well.
Horowitz was at one point smiling and kinda acting as if he and Gowdy were in lock step...until, Gowdy put it in 3rd gear. The lil giddy smile on Horowitz's face went stone cold.
Truly entertaining.
Yeah. Now we have Sheila Jackson Lee trying in vain to sound intelligent.
I understand the frustration, but Horowitz’ job is to be like Joe Friday from Dragnet - “just the facts ma’am”. Now that this documented record of facts has been put on the table it’s up to others to implement corrective actions (the least part of it) and to determine if crimes have been committed and whether a case can be made against those who are responsible.
We all need to relax and listen, absorb what is being said and think about what it means, so that as subsequent actions unroll we will understand the whole story.

LOL ...... I hear you.
Wasn’t just Cummings, Nadler also went to immigration for a bit.
Man, I tell ya. The democrats have just gone full tilt socialist/communist. The level of corruption is breath taking.
;-)
The hearings are the usual charade designed to mollify the public and lend the appearance of doing something. Just more political theater instead of meaningful and tangible consequences. Congress puts on show trials for political reasons. That's all they do.

Right ............. Cummings is living off the rock that hit him in the head back in the 60's. He's a lot like Jesse Jackasson and MLK's bloody shirt.
Truly entertaining.

.......... so true.
Look on the bright side - it lets us see some of the worst taste in clothing that human beings can possess.
Well ‘Children’ of illegals is now, (without question), the Dems distraction/obstruction to sway peoples attention off the IG results..they want this front page news everywhere and it’s being regurgitated everywhere on the media for the past week.....including democrats creating ‘media stunts’ at shelters and containment areas for illegals....
______________
Good luck with that.
