Discussion: House Intel Member Gowdy: I'm 'Awaiting The Mueller Investigation'

Maybe a favorable ’ return ’ on a certain wine co. investment …? …

yeah … a ’ nice ’ return …

He’d better be careful though what with the Russian lawyer coming clean …

If vladdy no longer values donnie as much as he once did …
doesn’t say a whole lot about Devin —

But of course… none of these schmucks thought it would blow up in their faces …
Devin would of been wiser to have put his money in popcorn ! –

What he gets and what he promised are two different things.

Promised: Admin post?

Likely what he gets: A trip-tic to political oblivion.

I believe he wants to return to a legal career. Probably get paid a lot. Given his legal career pre-Congress, he’ll probably get picked up by a posh Carolina firm (if he hasn’t already made an informal deal).

"So we found no evidence of collusion. Whether or not it exists or not, I can’t speak to, because I haven’t interviewed the full panoply of witnesses.”

In other words, you didn’t do your job.

My guess is this could apply to a lot of GOPers who aren’t running again.

He consigned the Nunes subpoena extorting Rosenstein. He’s full of shit.

“From the standpoint of where these matters are best investigated, I don’t think it’s in Congress right now,” Gowdy said Sunday, responding to Comey’s comments.

And yet Gowdy voted along party lines regarding the reports produced by that committee. He never publicly spoke up about Nunes’ fake recusal or his obstructive antics, including the secret meetings Republican committee members were having.

In short, I give Gowdy no credit for speaking up now. He is showing the same courage Ryan has shown. I guess Michelle Wolf forgot to mention that Gowdy lost his balls as well.

I don’t think it counts as “lost” when they’ve been given away, or sold.

At least Nunes is a straight lackey. This weasel sings stuff, and the goes out oif his way to make it clear he doesn’t believe the stuff he signed. What a despicable POS coward Gowdy is.

Yeah. This rule-of-law call-'em-like-I-see-'em portrayal fits him about as well as a pair of Groucho glasses from the Halloween store. Best theory I’ve seen is he wants to portray himself as an honest-broker conscience-having conservative truth-teller when he’s applying for that sweet, sweet wingnut welfare. But this is the Benghazi guy, and it’s bullshit. Pure shameless hyperpartisan tribal bullshit. That’s what he’s always been about and it still is.

The separation of powers, often imprecisely and metonymically used interchangeably with the trias politica principle, is a model for the governance of a state. Under this model, a state’s government is divided into branches, each with separate and independent powers and areas of responsibility so that the powers of one branch are not in conflict with the powers associated with the other branches. The typical division is into three branches: a legislature, an executive, and a judiciary, which is the trias politica model. It can be contrasted with the fusion of powers in some parliamentary systems where the executive and legislature are unified.
Separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.
The intent of separation of powers is to prevent the concentration of unchecked power and to provide for checks and balances to avoid autocracy or inefficiencies.

This is potentially interesting. Pecker wouldn’t do a piece on Cohen unless he had (or thought he had) trump’s buy-in. Real?
