FOX: Two senior House Republicans are accusing the Justice Department of being behind “anonymous attacks” in the press targeting a House Intelligence Committee GOP staffer who helped author the committee’s well-publicized memo alleging surveillance abuse by the FBI and DOJ during the 2016 election.
The same House staffer is also a driving force behind the latest Russia records standoff.
“I would have a lot more respect for DOJ or House committee Democrats if they would take out their frustrations on members of Congress, and leave staffers alone,” South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy, the Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee, told Fox News on Monday. “The members make the final decision and are responsible for them, not staffers.”
“Attacking staffers, planting false stories, and endangering national security by leaking sensitive information to the press, including information about intelligence sources — this is what the DOJ is doing, and this why trust in the DOJ is rapidly eroding in Congress,” said California Rep. Devin Nunes, the GOP chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.read more
I wouldn’t mind Trey Gowdy replacing the limp dick Jeff Sessions as AG. Sooner rather than later.
NO SH!T??
AS GOMER WOULD SAY, “SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE!!!”
WAKE ME WHEN THE ARRESTS BEGIN!!!
SAFETY WARNING: The FBI, DOJ and the IRS are now in complete control, any oversight attempts will be financially painful, quick, effective, heavily redacted and mysteriously from nowhere.
The goddam, cowardly deep state knows that Congressmen are well-protected by armed security, Steve Scalise notwithstanding. Targeting and threatening a lowly, defenseless staffer is pure evil. Don’t think we’re going to accept another “robbery gone bad” explanation, deep state mofos. Unless it’s John Effing Kerry bleeding out on the streets of Paris.
Can’t we just fire all these Deep State Traitor Bastards yet?
