Gowdy: House will act on FBI, DOJ subpoenas

By AUBREE ELIZA WEAVER 06/17/2018 10:31 AM EDT

House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy said Sunday the House is prepared to take action this week if the FBI and Justice Department fail to comply with the committee’s subpoena request.

“Under the heading of minor miracles, you had members of the House working on a Friday,” the South Carolina Republican told Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.” “Paul Ryan led this meeting. You had [House Intelligence Chairman] Devin Nunes, [House Judiciary Chairman] Bob Goodlatte, myself and everyone you can think of from the FBI and the DOJ, and we went item by item on both of those outstanding subpoenas.”

The subpoena, issued in March, references documents related to the FBI's handling of its investigation of Hillary Clinton’s email server, its firing of FBI official Andrew McCabe and various surveillance concerns. The FBI and Justice Department have yet to produce all requested documentation.

“And Paul [Ryan] made it very clear. There’s going to be action on the floor of the House this week if the FBI and DOJ do not comply with our subpoena request,” Gowdy said. added. “So [Deputy Attorney General] Rod Rosenstein, [FBI Director] Chris Wray, you were in the meeting. You understood him just as clearly as I did. We’re going to get compliance or the House of Representatives is going to use its full arsenal of constitutional weapons to gain compliance.”

We're still on an investigation into whether emails were stored on a server they shouldn't have been, but McConnell says the investigation into whether Russia subverted out elections and controls the white house has been dragging on forever and needs to wrap up...............

Persons of interest for conspiring with a foreign government to influence elections and for possible illegal foreign campaign donations.

Rosenstein should submit that information along with any Clinton/McCabe redacted documentation that has already been reported on over and over.
