I'm getting a little more wary of Gowdy every time he talks. I always get the feeling he's indifferent to whether consequences are leveled upon those executives who abused their entrusted powers.
I like Mitch McConnell's and Lou Dobbs' ways better. They speak plainly and call things as they see them.
Gowdy seems to be always hedging, praising Comey, praising Barr, Horowitch and Durham. It's like he's trying to not have a firm stance on anything of consequence – like Linsey Graham actually. Blowhards, who aren't present when they're really called upon and who's looking more to their own comfort than the nation's needs.
Horowitch probably produced an okay investigation, and I understand why he doesn't have the means to prove guilt, but to conclude that the 17! breaches of proper procedures towards the FISC were mere errors is blatantly wrong to a degree that he's not serving the people, but the SES!
You can't have mere "errors" being one sided in disfavor of an already ill treated president 17 times in a row. Such obvious irregularities should have compelled Horowitch to recommend further investigation and prosecution!
The bar for starting an investigation into possible foreign infiltration should be low, but it shouldn't remain sloppy. When the FBI didn't find further reasons for suspicion, they were obligated to advise the FISC accordingly, but they did the exact opposite!
Everyone who signed off on the FISA warrant application renewal perjured themselves before the FISC just as Brennan did when he told the congressional committee for oversight and reform that the unverifiable Steele concoction wasn't central to the investigation. Not only was it central, there wasn't anything else!
Not everything can function on checks and balances. When mere errors grow into malfeasance, the responsible leaders must take action or face the consequences.
But the entire Washington swamp operates exactly opposite:
Nobody takes action and nobody faces any consequences. All they do is talk for years on end!
