Gowdy is running as fast and as far as he can from the current administration. I seriously doubt he's going to join them.
Congress has already told trump they won't approve another AG for his administration.

I hope all of Trump's supporters remember this when the time comes:

I hate memes, but they seem to be the only thing Trump supporters can read.

Ask your former marine about the 4 innocent people he helped put on death row.
Withholding evidence from the defense seems to be his modus operandi.

BOSTON, July 26 — In what appears to be the largest sum of money ever awarded to people who were wrongfully convicted, a judge today ordered the federal government to pay $101.8 million to make amends for framing four men for a murder they did not commit. Two of the men died in prison after being falsely convicted in the 1965 gangland murder. Another, Peter Limone, spent 33 years in jail before he was exonerated in 2001. The fourth, Joseph Salvati, spent 29 years in prison. “It took 30 years to uncover this injustice,” Federal District Judge Nancy Gertner said in announcing her decision. She said the case was about “the framing of innocent men,” adding that “F.B.I. officials allowed their employees up the line to ruin lives.”

As their clients awaits sentencing on a charge of lying to the FBI, a federal judge delivered some good news to attorneys for former national security adviser Michael Flynn. He order special counsel Robert Mueller to turn over any “exculpatory evidence” he has in the criminal case to the ex-Trump official’s defense team. In an order signed Friday, U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan said federal prosecutors must timely provide Flynn’s defense team with “any evidence in its possession that is favorable to defendant and material either to defendant’s guilt or punishment.”

Actually based on the questions released he will NOT sit down as the questions are designed.


Slow your roll.

It has already been all but confirmed that those were questions composed by Trump's legal team, not Mueller.

They were practice questions to see if Trump could tolerate the heat.

That is incorrect.

Perhaps you need to read about the Saturday Night Massacre, Nixon, his articles of impeachment, specifically article 1 section 4, and how his actions (pushing to fire a special prosecutor) became part of the impeachment charges.


nterfering or endeavouring to interfere with the conduct of investigations by the Department of Justice of the United States, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the office of Watergate Special Prosecution Force, and Congressional Committees;


Trump has said he wont fire mueller or try to fire him so....there goes your theory on addin tthat to impeachment charges.


Weird post.

Trump has no legal authority to fire Mueller.

That is the whole premise of the Special Counsel.

Rosenstein can fire Mueller.
Sessions can fire Mueller if he un-recuses.
Trump can fire both Sessions and Rosenstein if they don't fire Mueller like he tells them to.
Whoever becomes Acting AG or Acting Deputy AG can fire Mueller.
But Trump can't fire Mueller.

It is like saying Trump assured people he would not flap his arms and fly.

Idictments of whom though? Since you have to unseat the president before he can be prosecuted for anything.


You don't seem to be following.

Did I say Trump was going to be indicted? Or just the opposite?

State prosecutions are not the responsibility of the Fed's and the story points out that they are not required to share info with state prosecutors.
And do I need to point out that these guys were mafia and no angels even if they didn't kill that particular person. Its not like they sent boy scouts to prison.
The Fed's were protecting a source and were going g after the mob. Much bigger fish. Those thugs were acceptable collateral damage.

You are wrong.

Trump has all legal authority to fire anyone involved in a cointel op..

However if mueller was investigating trump then he could not fire him.

You choose is it a counter intel operation or is it an investigation of trump?

rock and hard place

Keep in mind that spy's and informants are usually employed in cointelops.

Spy's are not so common in criminal investigations. However snitches are. The folks labeled as spy's in this case were not snitching.

We are truly blessed the founders did not think like you do.
It is really scary what you people find politically acceptable.

Answer is neither.

Hard to respond to posts that have no reality tether.
