So Trey "Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi" Gowdy may soon be in charge of the House Oversight Committee which is looking into Russia's interference with our last election.

Oh yeah, the glasses help.
Courtesy of Politico:

The Republican Steering Committee on Thursday backed Rep. Trey Gowdy to become the next chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. 

The move — if confirmed by the full Republican Conference — would put the South Carolina Republican at the helm of a contentious probe into President Donald Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey. Gowdy, a former federal prosecutor, is known for chairing the House Benghazi investigation and has also been a leading member of the Intelligence Committee’s probe of Moscow’s interference in the 2016 election. 

Gowdy would replace outgoing Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), who will resign at the end of June.

As you may remember Gowdy was tenacious, and also incompetent, during his investigation into Benghazi. 

If he were to even demonstrate a fraction of that kind of aggression in investigating this Russia hacking thing I would predict that he would become a Donald Trump Twitter target.

However what are the chances of that really?

I doubt very seriously that Gowdy wants to do anything of substance which might undermine Trump's election night victory, and that will only change if it becomes clear that Trump is doomed and that political survival means standing against him rather than standing with him.

    It will be up to the defenders of America to deal with Trump, the Republicans have no principles and don't care if the country burns as long as taxes are low for the billionaires whose bits they suck.

    If Little Trey is in charge, there will be no investigation. Little Trey only goes after Democrats, especially female Democrats.
    PS Who would ever name their son Trey, other than a Palin possibly?

      Yeah Sherrill Redmon (formerly McCOnnell can't figure it out either. Evidently, Sherrill woke up and realized she needed to make amends for genreating any Yertle spawn. She collaborated with Gloria Steinmen and " As for Sherrill, who now goes by Sherrill Redmon, she went on to Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts to become the director of the Sophia Smith Collection of the Women's History Archives, described on the Sophia Smith Collection home page as "an internationally recognized repository of manuscripts, archives, photographs, periodicals and other primary sources in women's history." In her years as Director Sherrill worked to expand the Collection to make it more racially and culturally diverse and to fill in the gaps in the historical record. She also worked with Gloria Steinem on an important oral history called Voices of Feminism. "

    Gowdy is going to obstruct the hearing as hard as he “prosecuted” Hillary.

    Maybe he will be charged with obstruction of justice.
