"SNIP..........


Republican Trey Gowdy acted behind closed doors like a lawyer for President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, during questioning Tuesday by the House Intelligence Committee, said the top Democrat on the panel.

"Mr. Gowdy took the role as a second attorney for Mr. Kushner," Adam Schiff of California told reporters.

Gowdy declined to comment Wednesday on Schiff’s remarks. But he said a day earlier that Democrats on the Intelligence panel, which is looking into potential connections between Russia and the Trump campaign, uncovered "zero" new or revelatory information in more than three hours of questioning. Gowdy of South Carolina said in an interview that Democrats "even ran out of questions."

Such is the partisan discord that has marked the work of a key congressional committee charged with investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign and potential ties between the Trump campaign and Moscow.

3. Of course he did. There may not be a bigger partisan hack in DC

And that takes some doing

[gratuitous]

4. No new or revelatory information?

Doesn't exactly exonerate Jared, does it? After all, he got the e-mail about the meeting with Veselnitskaya and was in attendance with her and Don Jr. and the rest of the three-ring circus. That's enough right there to hang some charges around Jared's pencil neck.

5. "zero" new information??? Is he dense? It just came out last week that Kushner had been lying for

months as to his meetings with Russians and how many were at these meetings. What a prick Gowdy is.

6. Not surprising

I'll never forget, or forgive, what Gowdy did to Hillary for 11 hours. Fuck him. She made him look like a bullying asshole, but still, fuck him.

8. Did gowdy ask Jared about Benghazi??

He rarely misses an opportunity to smear Poo to help obscure what is real and important

10. Rumour is that he is casting his tiny hat in the ring for the AG's job once Sessions goes.

11. Sounds like another attempt at obstruction of justice.

12. Draco Malfoy says what????
