Last night, Trey Gowdy sounded like he had been lobotomized. He said that Congress is powerless and has no power of prosecution. He said the public needs to pressure the white hut and DOJ to do something because congress can’t. What?

I saw that and my mouth dropped. He said something about cutting off funding. We really are in a coup d’état.

Is he wrong? He said it's up to the DOJ to prosecute - like the contempt charge against Witholder - it would take the DOJ to prosecute. Congress can initiate a lawsuit in a Federal Court, but they do not have prosecutory powers.

No, he’s right. This is beyond frustrating.
