This is HUGE!

It ties today's Gowdy news to the Rosenstein news:

Shortly after Trump asked Rosenstein "are you on my team," he contacted the House Oversight committee, which Gowdy is Chairman of and provided them with questions to ask Rosenstein during his Dec 13 testimony


You're right. from the lwafare bolg: Schiff emphasizes that only he and Rep. Trey Gowdy have seen the underlying intelligence on which the Nunes memo is based (only members of the Gang of Eight have access to the intelligence, but Gowdy viewed the intelligence for the majority).

are that Gowdy may be facing his own ethical problems, which probably don’t come up since he is leaving.
Other rumor is he wants to run for State Att General. Even assholes get tired of the bullshit drama in DC.

Forget his Benghazi investigations. Forget that he forged documents to try and implicate HRC during those investigations. He has done absolutely nothing except focus on the leakers of intel. I can't actually remember how many hearings I've watched where he literally did not ask one question that wasn't related to who the leakers were, while not addressing the leaked information and the implications that info had on our elections.

He's not someone to be trusted to do anything other than carry water for this corrupt admin.

And IDK what's up with him retiring from politics, but my gut tells me there's something behind the scenes. This isn't just that he's done with politics. He's got some skeleton in his closet that's gonna come out.
