That is amazing. Gowdy doesn't want to hear the truth even when it is in the best interest of the country and even when held in secret away from cameras and the public.

One year ago today, (click here) we took our first look at the U.S. House Representative from South Carolina's 4th District, Trey Gowdy, and HOT DAMN is the timing of the anniversary of that for an update perfect right now. Rep. Gowdy is a man who centuries ago, would have made a fine witchfinder general, as he obsessively looks for conspiracies being carried out by Democrats that never actually manifest, and complains about the media when they have the nerve to report when he's unable to find any wrongdoing....
Trey Gowdy is a scared man. He is afraid there was collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. With Facebook ads is there any doubt. These Congresspersons are not interested in the truth or the national security of the USA, they are more interested in protecting cronies and the next election. They don't care about the country, yet alone the truth.
Trey Gowdy can't get the job done. I would think that evident. Such investigations with such obvious evidence should not take a lifetime to come to conclusions. All this stubbornness by the Republican Party is about being scared of the truth and what it might do to their next campaign.

Washington — In a secured room (click here) in the basement of the Capitol in July, Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, fielded question after question from members of the House Intelligence Committee. Though the allotted time for the grilling had expired, he offered to stick around as long as they wanted.
But Representative Trey Gowdy, who spent nearly three years investigating Hillary Clinton’s culpability in the deadly 2012 attack in Benghazi, Libya, was growing frustrated after two hours. You are in an unwinnable situation, Mr. Gowdy, a South Carolina Republican, counseled Mr. Kushner. If you leave now, Democrats will say you did not answer all the questions. If you stay, they will keep you here all week.
The exchange, described by three people with knowledge of it, typified the political morass that is crippling the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election — and whether the Trump campaign colluded in any way.
But the problems extend beyond that panel. All three committees looking into Russian interference — one in the House, two in the Senate — have run into problems, from insufficient staffing to fights over when the committees should wrap up their investigations. The Senate Judiciary Committee’s inquiry has barely started, delayed in part by negotiations over the scope of the investigation. Leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee, while maintaining bipartisan comity, have sought to tamp down expectations about what they might find....
