Trey Gowdy is going tear them a new one

Meaningless theater.

I could not care less how many GOP lawmakers pretend to be angry or try to make some harmless tool look stupid on TV. THAT'S NOT THEIR JOB.

Their job is to exercise all Legislative powers granted to the government set up by the U.S. Constitution and to represent the People and the States in that government.

Sham rage isn't part of the job.

Senator Sam Ervin and Congressman Peter Rodino never "tore anybody a new one", and yet they removed from office a President who had just won re-election with 520 electoral votes and 61% of the popular vote.

But then, they were men and they knew how to exercise power.
