Gowdy: Memo has no impact on Russia probe

Rep. Trey Gowdy, who was involved in the drafting of the controversial FISA memo, told CBS’ “Face the Nation” it has no effect on the Russia investigation:
"There is a Russia investigation without a dossier… the dossier has nothing to do with the meeting at Trump Tower. The dossier has nothing to do with an email sent by Cambridge Analytica. The dossier really has nothing to do with George Papadopoulos' meeting in Great Britain. It also doesn't have anything to do with obstruction of justice."

Hmmm.  Gowdy must be one of those deep state moles.

Even a good guy can be turned.

I don't know what's happened to Trey ... but this tweet along with his decision not to run for reelection make me wonder if our esteemed FBI has been digging through Trey's garbage and found something.

Like I said, why you seem compelled to share your lurid sexual fantasies is beyond hopeless.

My guess is he may not like having a target on his back.

Nothing happened to him.  He just understands the difference between the FISA mess created by the Steele dossier and unrelated actions taken by members of the Trump family/campaign that invited scrutiny.

Then perhaps he should have stayed out of politics.

“My wife hates it when I say this, but I was a pretty good prosecutor, I think.  But I've been a pretty lousy politician,” Gowdy told CBS News’ Face the Nation.

“I've done it for seven years,” he added. “I'm really grateful for the opportunity to do it, but it's time for me to — whatever time I've got left, I want to spend it in the justice system because that's where my heart is.”

It would seem as though Gowdy has worked in the kitchen, saw how the sausage was made, and had an Upton Sinclair moment.

He's correct.

Mueller isn't investigating corruption in the FISA process relating to surveillance of Trump campaign and transition team members.

He is chasing - who knows how eagerly at this juncture - a fundamentally empty narrative.

There are four active investigations in the DoJ and another three in the House and Senate underway.  Covering State Department and Obama Administration abuse of FISA and unmasking, Hillary Clinton's felonious use of a hidden server, Clinton Foundation pay-for-play criminality and the weaponization of America's most powerful and entrusted national security and LEO institutions against political opponents.

This ain't over, by any means.   Obama built the most corrupt and abusive political and bureaucratic regime in American history.  And, wouldn't you know it, nothing corrupt gets done around those there Dem parts without the craven and venal Clintons there to cash in.

Bring it on.  It's all unraveling.

I certainly hope so.

The initial scope of Starr's investigation was Whitewater.  He was able to secure more than a few indictments and convictions from it. None of it, however, touched Clinton. It was only later, in expanded investigations, that we ended up with the perjury and obstruction of justice charges.

The only way Mueller can expand beyond his scope is to get clearance through Rosenstein. Once the investigation starts getting off track, it's up to him to keep it contained and focused or shut it down altogether.
