Gowdy says FBI 'did exactly what my fellow citizens would want them to do' in Russia investigation

 

House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy said Tuesday he is now "more convinced" that the FBI acted appropriately in its handling of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible connections to Donald Trump's campaign.

 

Gowdy's comments come as President Trump continues to attack the department and the bureau over the handling of the Russia investigation.

I watched his comments. I actually came away thinking it was a sneaky defense of Trump. Two quotes.

I am even more convinced that the FBI did exactly what my fellow citizens would want them to do when they got the information they got, and that it has nothing to do with Donald Trump.

I think when the president finds out what happened, he is going to be not just fine, he is going to be glad that we have an FBI that took seriously what they heard.

 

I've had a bunch of liberal friends rubbing this in my face but I think it could just be a ploy to make them trust Gowdy. It would make them look foolish if he comes out against them when the OIG report hits.

He's also auditioning for a new job, and he badly wants one inside DOJ. Can't burn the institution down you're hoping hires you.

Well, Trump is your hero, lol, so you need to believe that. 

 

 

Mueller has way more credibility than Trump. Not even close 

 

 

C'mon Mueller, move your bloomin' arse!

Can you explain this so that it makes sense to those of us not on your intelligence level?

You're confusing justice with OC's posts...

Yes, he's sounded like quite the fair minded centrist ever since he announced he wouldn't run for re-election.  He's probably got whatever is next for him already lined up and won't rock the boat.

I thought I knew before, but now I'm not so sure... 

 

Could you define both conspiracy theories you're referring to?

That Trump colluded with Russia and that the FBI/DOJ/CIA sent a spy into the Trump campaign for political purposes.

Not even this Trump supporter believes the spygate lie

 

Fox News's Andrew Napolitano said late Tuesday there is “no evidence” to support President Trump’s “spygate” claim that the FBI planted spies in his 2016 presidential campaign.

Napolitano, the news network's senior judicial analyst, said on "The Story With Martha MacCallum" that Trump’s lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, is making a “baseless” claim.

:beer: Thanks, was just making sure I wasn't misconstruing. 

 

 

As for Judge, there is evidence. Lots of it. Reams of it. With names, dates, and payments. This defense will end badly for the partisans in the MSM.

 

If the Russian collusion story is real, why are Carter Page and Misfud - both alleged agents of Russia - walking around free? More than walking around, one is constantly on TV... 

 

One of Doc's "conspiracy theories" is just that, the other is just an old fashioned conspiracy with evidence to prove it.

Isn't Napolitano known as a staunch Trump hater?

I am not saying he is guilty or innocent, but Bolling has his own troubles and he shouldn't be commenting on this.

 

Why can't people just lay low?

He does. But he raises a good point that shouldn't be overlooked. 

 

Tough to rectify the statements and reporting on this issue when they're talking out both sides of their mouths... which is what you'd expect to do when there's a coverup in the works. 

 

It's not going to work though. 1.2 million+ pages will see to that.

Are these pages really going to come out?

 

It looks like it can be stalled all the way thru the mid terms. If the Dems take the House and the Senate, those pages will get buried.

 

That is the game plan.............. any way.

There are many ways they can be suppressed or redacted before its public release, this is true. 

 

There are also several ways in which the full release can happen without redactions. 

 

We'll see soon enough, but the latter is more likely than a complete lockdown on the information coming out imo.
