A day or so ago South Carolina’s Republican House member Trey Gowdy exposed why James Comey, (fired FBI Director) is refusing to submit to a closed door hearing by the House committee all about the Hillary Clinton “get out of jail free” ticket Comey handed her and other stuff concerning the attempt by the FBI and Justice Department to frame Donald Trump with some kind, any kind of crime.
Comey claims he just wants transparency and a public televised hearing and he also wants to avoid the Republicans on the committee leaking classified information to the press. Well Trey Gowdy laughs at those excuses Comey is claiming. According to Gowdy, if Comey testifies before a closed door committee, Sir James couldn’t grandstand, (a talent Sir James loves to practice before the TV cameras.) Gowdy also notes that in closed door hearings, no House member is restricted to a simply 5 minute questioning period as with the open TV hearings. House panel members can use as much time as they need to throughly question the witnesses testimony, and Gowdy claims that Comey’s worst nightmare is the thought of being questioned in an unlimited session by him. Gowdy also notes that in a closed door setting Comey couldn’t refuse to answer any question on the grounds that the answer would be “classified” information not allowed in a public session., (a tactic Comey uses regularly and intends to keep in his “avoid bag”). Comey’s only other tactic in a closed hearing would be to plead the 5th, another tactic that Democrats and never Trumpers keep in their avoid bags.
