Where are CNN, WaPo, et all? Is this not news worthy? I know the answer and it is ugly.
If the left believes these highly placed government officials are above reproach, they should be up in arms, decrying the abuse of power by these Congressmen.
On the other hand, we have all seen the videos of Gowdy interrogating Lynch, Clinton and Comey. This needs to move forward, now.
In the back of my mind, I have wondered just what or who prompted Gowdy to announce his retirement from public life. I have wondered if there were irresistible forces acting behind the scenes. There is a dark cloud hanging over our nation's capital.
I sincerely hope that this is going to be "it" for them.
I doubt it though, I bet nothing comes of this at all, people are much more interested in the dirty stories of a whore.
Not sure about all the legalities going on here but me thinks there is a good chance the clock will run out on some sort of statute of limitations. Though some of this I think might meet a treason threshold.
Frankly, I think Sessions needs to go away. I have thought this ever since he recused himself like a spineless slimeball.
The Justice Department's inspector general has sent a criminal referral regarding former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe to the US attorney's office in Washington, according to a source familiar with the matter.
A McCabe spokesperson, the Justice Department and US attorney's office all declined to comment.

I’m a guesser I’m a gamer I’m an FBI hall-of-famer I’m a mutha I’m a vicar I’m a Democrat boot-licker I hawk my new book on TV
Who Am I ?
Possibilities here. Needs some work. My music skills are zilch. Maybe someone can take this and run with it. Break out the guitar. Or whatever instrument. Make a webcam video and post it here.
Better than LegalZoom: Will Rudy Giuliani be able to put the law on Donald Trump's side?
quote
President Donald Trump, stung by reports that he couldn't attract top-notch lawyers, personally pushed for former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani to add a dose of star power to his bare-bones legal team, according to sources familiar with the situation.
In bringing on Giuliani, a former US attorney for the Southern District of New York, the President adds a high-profile name, trusted confidant and dogged defender in an investigation that Trump has denounced as a "witch hunt."
His hiring and that of two other new lawyers, respected white-collar criminal defense attorneys Jane Serene Raskin and Marty Raskin, injects some much-needed firepower into the President's legal team, which has been beset by departures and internal dissension and stalled in talks with special counsel Robert Mueller's team.
The President believes that Giuliani -- a brash New Yorker with a reputation as a tough prosecutor -- can assess Mueller's team and possibly shepherd a swift end to the investigation, according to a source familiar with Trump's thinking.
Absolutely nothing, I mean... 100% absolutely nothing is going to happen.
Republicans are all total cowards, and they are too damn scared to actually do their job. They're about as frightened by their own shadow as Democrats are mentally unstable.
Trump is practically the only one in office right now that's not scared to fight.
I was surfing the news and I happened to be going back and forth between Fox and MSNBC. I've never seen such bias displayed by both. With almost ten hours to pick from each side was able to cherrypick a ton of shots and easily able to present their own view as the right one. If I had only watched one of them I would have only had half the story.
