He resigned because of his promotion to that committee.

He still looks like a clueless junior high kid.

Not a good thing. Unless Mueller? But that hasn't stopped the rats from chewing through the ropes yet.
aaagh

how he treated Hillary in her Benghazi testimony. He was venomous!

I love reminding republicans of this everytime they say he should be the next AG, etc.

...ethics!

Oil & water don't mix either.

CIA: Trey Gowdy Altered Documents To Frame Hillary Clinton

Thanks for the news.

Chairman of the House Oversight Committee. That is the committee that the GOP use to target Democratic presidents and presidential candidates. The Ethics Committee handles wayward House members.

Gowdy got rewarded for his work on Benghazi. They are now counting on him to follow in Jason Chaffetz's footsteps.

On Edit: Of course, we shouldn't forget that Hillary obliterated him. But the important thing, from the Republicans' perspective, is that he tried. He proved his total lack of ethics to them.

to conduct phony "investigations" of dems in order to smear them and drive down their poll numbers wouldn't work, of course, if the corporate mediaduh didn't give them a platform and confer legitimacy on their efforts.

But by buying into the madness and diligently covering all of these propaganda exercises, the media plays its part by getting the intended message out. Average 'Muricans who just casually listen to the news come away shaking their heads and imbibing the message that there is wrongdoing by the targets and that both parties are equally corrupt.

Oh, and of course, the GOPee hucksters who will be the puppetmasters for gowdy will be covering up and failing to investigate GOPee criminal activities, i.e. actual scandals.

shithole!

of ethics violations based on the Mueller investigation. He doesn't want to be on the hook to look into their crimes.

No more Gowdy Doody Show...so sad.

As a condition of his resignation being accepted, he has to turn over all of his assets to the U.S. Treasury.

Otherwise, he can rot in Congress until his ass gets officially booted out this November, taking consequences of all of his actions.

Now resign and move to Russia- your kind is welcomed there.

There was talk of Gowdy replacing Sessions if Jeffy was asked to resigned.

Fk I wish this was all past tense by now.
🤢

I don't see the point of resigning his post ahead of time.

Maybe this was the purpose of the mtg between the FBI Director and Rosenstein, and then the FBI Director & Rosenstein with Paul Ryan?

Who knows. Congress is so corrupt and such a mess. Hard to know what's going on there.

If he survives his election.

Hahahahahahahaaa!

Could be, could be.

given that (perhaps) Gowdy is every bit as involved as Nunes, this may have come to a head...

who knows?

It's something I guess!

And decided he wanted NO PART of it. On principle.
