(excerpt)

On Tuesday afternoon, a complaint was filed with the Office of Congressional Ethics against Rep. Gowdy, requesting an investigation into the South Carolina congressman “…for accepting $6,000 in political action committee contributions from Anti-Hillary Clinton groups while investigating her.”

The ethics complaint, filed by the Democratic Coalition Against Trump, details how the three $2,000 contributions came from conservative groups affiliated with Stop Hillary PAC – a group that also “…spent [an additional] $10,000 directly in support of Rep. Gowdy.”

Gowdy took payment from these groups in 2015 – while he was the Chairman of the Select Committee investigating the former Secretary of State. He tried to defuse the situation in October of that year by returning the donations in question ahead of a Washington Post story exposing them. Stop Hillary PAC caused an embarrassing scandal days earlier when they aired this Benghazi-themed ad during the Democratic Presidential Debate, one that politicized the deaths of the 4 fallen American heroes.

Look up the Salt Bae meme if you haven't seen it: I can visualize (but can't myself do the Photoshop) a Trey Gowdy meme where he is sprinkling lies over America on a plate...

If anyone likes this idea and has Photoshop skills, go for it!

10. This is the kind of thing that we should be doing all the time

Expose them and their corruption. We know it's there, but normally no one bothers to do anything about it! Good job by the Democratic Coalition Against Trump.
