Trey Gowdy issues warning shot to press, wants Comey to say there are no exceptions for reporters in publishing classified intelligence


What the fuck Trey?

 

[Tommy DJ]

Dude the answer to all your questions is literally "someone leaked it".

 

[jabuseika]

Going after breitbart?

 

[Shard]

Yea, this question was actually answered with the Pentagon Papers.

 

[HotHamBoy]

How about these threats against the free press's responsibility to uncover the truth?

 

[joe2187]

Dems ask questions: Comey and Rogers respond naturally.

Repubs asking questions: Comey and Rogers responds like talking to children.

 

[PaulCRose]

Gowdy is a stooge.

 

[Melkezadek]

What is your point, sir?

 

[rbanke]

Where is this mothefuck going with this?

Christ

making a case for imprisoning the press of course.... ya know, freedom!

 

[RoKKeR]

So transparent.

 

[Nelo Ice]

So just tuned in a few mins ago in the middle of Schiff going ham. So far I'm guessing all the Dems have asked actual questions while Republicans have asked bullshit.

 

[Vuapol]

Seems to me that Gowdy is not so subtly suggesting we should start prosecuting reporters for what they report...

 

[rambis]

Gowdy is trying to scare reporters and its so blatantly obvious.

 

[MIMIC]

Investigation of the Russians role in the hack.

Which really I suspected before.

I thought it was the investigation of the Russia-Trump connection, not the hacks.

 

[Arttemis]

Their opinion: The leakers and reporting of the leaks is the problem, not the content that unveiled possible collusion in achieving the presidency.

 

[Emarv]

I just tuned in and have a few questions:

1. What does this mean?

2. What are the repercussions?

3. Will this potentially get trump impeached

Thanks!

It means the investigation is still ongoing. Stay tuned for the next few months.

 

[RaidenZR]

The focus on leaks is infuriating.

The fucking house is being burnt down, but no- let's stop and find out who's talking about the fire and not find out that who's making the fire.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

The Monopoly man

 

[Stinkles]

I hope someone shuts these idiots down on changing the subject. LEAKS! MASKS! LEAKY MASKS!

I also hope the FBI looks carefully at the republicans, including Gowdy, who seem more interested in breaking the back of the intelligence community than getting to the bottom of the case in front of him.

Nunes basically sounds guilty at this point. He's almost prosecuting his own future case.

 

[Rymuth]

I feel dumber just listening to Gowdy. No joke.

 

[Justin Bailey]

making a case for imprisoning the press of course.... ya know, freedom!

Luckily the way Comey answered the questions was basically like "I'll let you guys worry about that."

 

[Dead Prince]

is Gowdy still going at this. LMAO

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

The focus on leaks is infuriating.

The fucking house is being burnt down, but no- let's stop and find out who's talking about the fire and not find out that who's making the fire.

They loved leaks once upon a time...

 

[jelly]

This guy is talking balls.

 

[Got]

But who decides "treason" is a question above any kind of democratic authority.

Selling weapons to the greatest exporter of terrorism? Not treason.

Promoting an Iranian terrorist organization? Not treason.

Helping an apartheid state get nuclear weapons? Not treason.

This is how American citizens are propagandized. Official enemies like Russia are branded as such with no serious investigation into how a country gets to be an official enemy. Certainly nobody votes on this.



I'd vote for Jill Stein's infected boil before I vote for Adam Schiff.

I didn't think you could concern troll any harder, yet here we are. congrats

 

[Veidt]

This guy looks like he's halfway mutating into a blob

 

[Saya]

Why does Gowdy get so much time?

 

[Hydrophobic]

Mr. Comey, I'm glad you could come here to help me find the dirty dirty leaker who has been leaking this information. - Trey Gowdy Head Cannon

Why does Gowdy get so much time?

I think he's the chairman of this committee?

 

[Slayer-33]

This dude lol..

Jesus Christus

 

[jmdajr]

"How can we lock up the media?"

 

[SuperEpicMan]

Just to play devils advocate regarding the leaks, surely the crime would be committed by the leakers, not the media for reporting on it.

 

[kingocfs]

...Maine Justice?

 

[bgbball31]

So just tuned in a few mins ago in the middle of Schiff going ham. So far I'm guessing all the Dems have asked actual questions while Republicans have asked bullshit.

Republicans: "So, did Russia physically change any votes? No? Then let's talk about how illegal leaks are illegal."

Schiff was the first Dem to talk IIRC.

 

[PumpkinSpice]

Why does Gowdy get so much time?

Everyone else yielded when their questions were answered. Gowdy is just stalling for time asking the same useless shit over and over.

 

[Ziltoidia 9]

I thought it was the investigation of the Russia-Trump connection, not the hacks.

I guess that to, sorry, its all blurred to me. I just know that it feels like russia/trump connection has been around since then.

 

[Sandoval]

It's painful to listen to this dude and the fact that he whistles every three words.

 

[Veidt]

Why does Gowdy get so much time?

Nunes gave his time away. Hopefully.

 

[King Tubby]

Republicans are entirely willing to sell out the presidency to the Kremlin as long as they get rid of the leakssssss

 

[HotHamBoy]

Why does Gowdy get so much time?

What are they going to do, ask questions that don't deflect from the actual issue at hand?

 

[RaidenZR]

I can't believe the republican officials are united up there in throwing the intelligence agencies under the bus. Fucking dangerous. They're undermining so much in the name of this Trump administration. What a fucking hill to die on.

 

[Unison]

Best case being made right here for an independent prosecutor...

 

[jmdajr]

Just to play devils advocate regarding the leaks, surely the crime would be committed by the leakers, not the media for reporting on it.

Common sense no?

 

[sinxtanx]

Why does Gowdy get so much time?

he gets 15 minutes no matter what

 

[Emarv]

I think he's the chairman of this committee?

Nunes heads this committee.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Partisan politics in full display. But treason is more important then leaks.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

lol Gowdy tried and failed to imply someone from the WH could have unmasked someone.

 

[studyguy]

Gowdyy softballing some threats to media here and there.
Oh now trying to pin down people of previous admin lmao

 

[MIMIC]

What the heck is he doing?

 

[RoKKeR]

This is fucking disgusting.

 

[CHC]

Turn off Gowdy's mic, Christ, he's just wasting so much fucking time here.

I'd like to punch this fucking guy in the face until my own goddamn knuckles looked like ground beef.
