Former Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) was originally in support of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, but according to a revealing interview with Fox News, his perspective changed when he came across mysterious evidence.
Speaking to Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures," Gowdy said the evidence in question is FBI transcripts of conversations concerning Trump campaign associate George Papadopoulos and FBI informants. "Some of us have seen transcripts of those conversations. And I was supportive of Mueller. I was supportive of the idea to initiate, to investigate what Russia did," Gowdy said. gowdy suggested last month that the fbi intentionally withheld game changer evidence from the fisa court © press
Gowdy suggested last month that the FBI intentionally withheld 'game-changer' evidence from the FISA court "But when I saw this transcript, it actually changed my perspective, because you want to think of law enforcement as being unbiased and disinterested in the outcome, as long as we just find the facts," he revealed.
"This really matters. When you have exculpatory information, and you don't share it with a court...then your bias begins to impact the investigation."
Gowdy chaired the House Intelligence Committee before leaving office in January.
He suggested last month that the FBI intentionally withheld "game-changer" evidence from the FISA court while they obtained a surveillance warrant against Trump campaign associate Carter Page.
It is believed the transcripts Gowdy referred to are exculpatory evidence.
Last month, Gowdy advised Attorney General William Barr's investigators to look at Comey and Brennan. Various Republican lawmakers believe the government withheld the transcripts from the FISA court because they would have affected the case for obtaining a warrant.
Gowdy told Bartiromo the transcripts could potentially persuade the public in President Donald Trump's favor.
"There is some information in these transcripts that I think has the potential to be a game-changer if it's ever made public," Gowdy said last month.
There is a possibility the transcripts will be made public.
Last month, Gowdy advised Attorney General William Barr's investigators, investigating the Obama administrations handling of the Trump-Russia investigation, that the key lies in emails between Comey and Brennan.
The Ex-South Carolina Rep. pointed Barr's investigators toward former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey.
So whoevers investigating this, tell them to look for emails between Brennan and Comey in December 2016, Gowdy said in an interview with Hannity.
You're right - Nunes and Jordan are men of action - similar to Trump and we really them. They've been courageous and steady during this whole mess. Heroes... But Gowdy's a man of thought and we also need men like Gowdy. Our forces have to be balanced if we expect to defeat the evils that are forming against us.
Even a blind pig,...

He’ s a BOOM alright. A cap pistol through a Fender Bassman amp. Lots of volume and that’s it.
Gowdy is Foghorn Leghorn
Thank God there are Americans, like Brian Kolfage, et al. taking care of business while members of Congress diddle each other and attempt to destroy Our Donald for their own self interests. It is important for each of us to do our part to work towards sending these political hacks home in 2020 and thereafter until they’re out of office permanently. They’re self-serving, power-hungry, amoral, corrupt, hypocritical, hacks. In my opinion, they’re not worthy of being called Americans. They’re out to destroy our country, destroy our national security, destroy our Constitution, and take our freedom and the freedom of our children and grandchildren.
Sorry but that is just not true, that is always the Attorney General.
The Judiciary Act of 1789 created the Office of the Attorney General which evolved over the years into the head of the Department of Justice and chief law enforcement officer of the Federal Government.
I've seen the claim you make. I think it completely understates the President's duty and authority.
Article II, Section 3 of the Constitution requires the President to take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed. This clause, known as the Take Care Clause, requires the President to enforce all constitutionally valid Acts of Congress, regardless of his own Administration's view of their wisdom or policy.
You have a truly skewed view of reality.

Gowdy was naive with his trust of Mueller and his gang. He thought the FBI and DOJ was run by honorable people and didnt want to believe on an emotional level that they werent. Glad he has come around to understand their true nature.
Gowdys naivety was likely because he has high very high level of personal integrity, which also attributed to other law enforcement officials. He was wrong and has admitted it. He should have listened to Louie Gohmert.
Gowdy is the same critter who goaded Trump to sit down with Mueller; “you have nothing to lose if you’re innocent.”
Gowdy could not be that stupid. Disingenuous.
But on the plus side, he has a helluva head of hair.
+1
First we send democrats packing - then we worry about perfection in our own party...
Brilliant post. The medium turns out, indeed, to be the message.
