1. A must watch

[charlyvi]

2. Its about damn time someone stood up to them. n/t

[SergeStorms]

103. Someone is going to....

have to explain the definition of the word "hyperbole" to Gowdy though. He's not the brightest bulb on the christmas tree.

[mehrrh]

51. holy moly

He let them have it in spades!! Wow.

[calimary]

94. Yes. Let's NEVER forget how trump disrespected those Gold Star parents.

And YOU voted for that, CONS.

And YOU TOO voted for that, Deplorables.

[whathehell]

114. Yes, I was delighted to hear Peter Strzok make that point!

Agent Strzok rocks!

[calimary]

115. That was FABULOUS! We shouldn't EVER forget that disgusting display of his.

And we shouldn't let anybody else forget it, too. Glad he put it into the Congressional record. And notice - they didn't have much of a comeback to it.

[whathehell]

117. Yes, it was..

with Trump, it's just one outrage after another...He's SO bad, one could not make him up, let alone imagine him as President.
It's a nightmare.

[roscoeroscoe]

3. Badass

Truth to power!

[NoMoreRepugs]

4. Howdy Doody just got ripped a new butthole.

He's now 0 for 2 in showdowns. What an ASSCLOWN.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

5. But the deep state

The biggest threat to derp staters like Gowdy Doody.

[Sophia4]

35. I finally figured out what the "deep state" is.

It's people who know facts and information that "you" whoever you are don't know and wouldn't understand if you did know it.

And by you, I don't mean anyone on DU.

[FakeNoose]

59. There are hidden areas of the internet

...that normal internet users like (most of) us on DU can't get into.

They're areas that hackers and spies know how to access, and a lot of secrets can be found or hidden in there. Like private archives of documents, financial dealings, spy stuff, etc. The hacking/spy people who work in that environment got named "deep state" a few years ago to make it sound mysterious, and maybe a little adventurous. (They're mostly nerds who work on computers 18 hours per day.) Usually they get in by stealing passwords because they don't really belong in there.

[2golddogs]

74. Derp State

Thank you for this, I was trying to explain to Mr Dogs what people mean by Deep State and I wish I'd had this in front of me at the time. 👍🏼

[LiberalLovinLug]

77. I think you mean the dark web

But I think they use the concept of the Dark Web existing, to promote their fantasy Deep State also existing. One is true, so they use that fact to piggy back off of with another even more insidious version that includes not only the internet but political operatives who somehow control the intelligence services of the country. Even though the heads of the important ones are held by Republicans, and the GOP is in the majority, and has had both houses for a while now, they are somehow helpless to find it or to stop it.

[2golddogs]

107. Makes

sense👍🏼

[erronis]

81. I think that is called the "dark web", not the "deep state". Dark holes, matter, energy

All stuff we can talk about but can't see. "Deep state" is just a buzzword for RWNJ to discuss what they can't understand - facts.

[D_Master81]

6. Gawdy has found another unicorn to chase

Benghazi, hillary emails, now this. when does it stop w/ these a-holes? Never is the answer, meanwhile our country is falling apart right beneath their noses on their watch while they whistle past the graveyard.

[mopinko]

7. womp womp

howdy doody's face is priceless.

[Lars39]

8. Gowdy is wanting to hide under his desk.

Lovely tongue lashing!

[Fritz Walter]

25. The director at CSPAN earned his month's pay with that split-screen

I imagine that most of the time at CSPAN‘s Control Room, the crew is fighting to stay awake during these hearings. Would love to hear their comments during this one, though!

[Lars39]

28. Truly!

[montanacowboy]

9. Good for him!

Mash those mfr's into the ground every time

too bad he didn't let loose of the info on the Trump shit - maybe we would not have this POS sitting in the White House today

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

10. That was like Christmas morning.....

Please gods end this nightmare. Please stop it. The whole globe except russi(I won't even spell it)...In fact I call it the Soviet Union bc the mentality w putin...is the same.
The Soviet UNION and the Iron Curtain. Killing dissidents. Stores w no food on the shelves. Peoples oppressed. Murdering, lying, cheating bastards that have us hating our neighbor when all we did was live our lives and follow the rules as Americans. We paid our taxes.
We ARE THE GREATEST NATION IN THE WORLD AND IT'S NEVER BEEN IN DISPUTE TILL THIS SHITBAG GOT IN AS PRESIDENT.
IF LIFE IS SO SHITTY FOR THE FOX CROWD....CRY ME A RIVER...YOU STILL ARE DOING WELL ENOUGH TO HAVE CABLE TV OR WIFI TO WATCH YOUR PROPAGANDA. It can be much worse, and when it is...it'll be too late for YOU TOO. Have an ounce of foresight in your life. I know it's hard...but do it anyway. It's part of the duty we owe to each other (yes gop you owe a duty to someone other than yourself) when we agree that we are living "IN A SOCIETY!" (hear me scream that like George Costanza on Seinfeld) The guys down under the bridge are hungry, jobless, and they're outside in the heat of this summer. I have news for you fox folks...when they roll up the streets and leave town...they aren't taking you with them either. Put whatever narcotic or whatever you are doing...DOWN for the love of gods. fox gives you half sentences you can repeat to your deplorable friends....Do wht you have to do. THEN, turn to CNN and MSNBC and get the rest of the story. You know,...the CONTEXT. And as they say, context is everything.....and it is. (Start w looking up context, so you know what you're looking for.)
We watch out for each other in this country. It's not me against you. We are here together...and we aren't screaming at each other like a town hall meeting of tea partiers. We didn't go looking for shit to hate on each other for...until fox and dt and rush. It was never like this before. Politics was gentlemanly. They/we respected each other. Now Rs demand respect the same way, but act like heathens. All the damn guns, and threats, and name-calling (LIBERAL...Like its a bad word...Oh fanabala.) The fear, and race baiting. The corporate oppression...oh gosh the list goes on.
I am SO glad and bolstered to hear this man speak up. You can tell he's been waiting to unload for a long time. Unload on a description of the facts we all know were true. People all across the nation were shitting bricks bc HRC WASN'T GOING TO BE PRESIDENT. We all knew we'd been robbed and that something was deeply deeply wrong. And it wasn't JUST bc that guy was going to be president. It was also bc of the underlying implications....we were under attack. (The feeling I got was the same one I got after watching the FIRST plane hit the tower...hoping there wasn't more....and when there was....I knew everything had just changed. Forever. I MADE SEVERAL OF THESE TYPES OF TEXTS MYSELF TO SIBLINGS AND FRIENDS. We all did if you voted. Lots of folks freaking out. The idea that this whole investigation is a witch-hunt or a bad thing HAS JUST BEEN FOX FODDER FOR TALKING POINTS TO REPEAT AND REPEAT. THEY REPEAT IT SO MUCH, IT'S TAKEN AS IF that opinion is fact. And an army of morons fans out w talikng points they think makes them sound informed. They've gotten so much mileage out of just ridiculous propaganda shrouded as "news".
Thank you Agent S. I hope there's many more like him that are equally angry as shit, and ready to clear the damn decks of the enemy within.

[charlyvi]

13. I needed a smoke after that.

But I didn't. Four years smoke free, but DAMN!

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

15. Sorry. I ranted.

Life was so great and above all, hopeful 2 years ago. I'm old. I worked a long time to have a nice, OLD LIFE.
Just angry. Ty for your comment.

[Afromania]

22. Nah, it's good, I like it. No need to be sorry about having to spit some fire.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

112. I apprecite it.

[charlyvi]

24. I'm old too.

You did good.

[LittleGirl]

80. awesome rant! eom

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

95. thanks.

[WheelWalker]

83. Right on!

Right fucking on.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

96. I appreciate it. Ty. Kinda went off.

[orangecrush]

92. GREAT RANT!!!

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

97. Means a lot to me. Ty.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

109. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 n/t

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

113. Thanks Blanche.

Yesterday was something to behold.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

116. I couldn't bring myself to watch,

Except for the clips here. And commentary.

[Quixote1818]

11. K and R nt

[lark]

12. Wow, the truth is so powerful, it smacked these lying criminal reupugs right in their mugs.

Repugs totally can;t handle the truth, it's not in their thought processes at all because all they care about is power for the rich and stealing everything from the working class and that's part of the reason they love drumpf.

[charlyvi]

16. Quote from KKKarl Rove:

The aide said that guys like me were "in what we call the reality-based community," which he defined as people who "believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality." I nodded and murmured something about enlightenment principles and empiricism. He cut me off. "That's not the way the world really works anymore." He continued "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."


https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Karl_Rove

[calimary]

31. Do not EVER forget this quote.

This is the bad guys’ manifesto. In just three sentences.

[RVN VET71]

48. And the photo-fascists in the GOP loved him for saying it

How about every time Rove appears on any media platform, the host introduces him by quoting these very words and asking him exactly how different his expressed beliefs are from those of the Trump WH or, for that matter, Orwell's Big Brother?

I prayed that Rove would be frog-marched to jail -- especially after the outing of Valerie Place. He wasn't and now I'm an atheist.

[Roland99]

14. That'll hurt come Winter (or fall 2018!)

[Augiedog]

17. Gowdy is silently saying,,,please make it stop mom....he is bullying me

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

23. Omg..

Thanks for that. I say lol...bc I really did. That was funny.
The biggest bullies in the world...get threatened so easy. revealing on the culture of the gop in general.

[murielm99]

18. Imagine a Trump staffer

trying to tell the orange menace what "hyperbole" means.

[Permanut]

87. That's an easy one..

Hyper - "over, or above".

bole - "the part of the toilet you sit on",


Hence, "hyperbole" means "over the toilet".

[Afromania]

19. Holy Cow, that is the way to stake your vampires.

[MoonRiver]

20. Bookmarking! Gotta take grandson to his theater class.

[Stonepounder]

21. Listening to that gave me goosebumps!

You, sir, are a true patriot who has no problem whatsoever in 'speaking truth to power'. This is what a true American sounds like!!!

[tavernier]

26. Surprised though that he wasn't interrupted...

The repubs are skilled at talking over everyone with loud moral indignation.

[charlyvi]

29. I thought that as well

Perhaps Gowdy was too furious? too intimidated? too ashamed? Nah, he doesn't know the meaning of shame.

[tavernier]

38. He did show a little Trump shame recently.

I’m not holding out much hope for him in light of his ludicrous 2 million Benghazi trials, and his recent “”let’s get this shit over with” remarks, mind you, but perhaps Rump’s BS is too stupid for even Gowdy to swallow whole.

[Tarc]

39. Both Gowdy and Nunes went dead silent after that Russia briefing a few months ago

It can't be a coincidence.

[OnDoutside]

27. For those without Twitter

[Wwcd]

36. And Gowdy Slammed Back:

[OnDoutside]

44. Excellent !

[RVN VET71]

50. The look of a kid who got caught in the act

and now must listen to the Principal read him the riot act. (If only it could have ended in the S.O.B. getting expelled!)

[charlyvi]

52. Bwahaha! Like the POW that blinked out morse code.

He was held by the Vietnamese and blinked "Tortue, Torture!" with his eyes. LOL!

[samnsara]

57. gowdys been reduced to the two bit lawyer he is...good bye AG dreams

[MyOwnPeace]

84. Nah!

With IQ45 qualifications don't matter.......................

[ehrnst]

65. The guy behind the chair checking to see if it's safe to come out now...

[Wwcd]

70. Ikr! Lmao...

[Raster]

47. BRAVO Agent Strzok!

Bravo, Sir!

[shenmue]

30. HOLY SHIT

[Ohioboy]

32. This is how it's done.

Compare this to someone like Sessions being questioned. Wait till they all hear from Mueller.

[charlyvi]

37. Yes.

Is Chuck Shumer listening? HELLO Chuck Shumer! Paging Chuck Shumer! Chuck Shumer wanted on the courtesy phone!

[progressoid]

33. look at that body language!

[RandiFan1290]

34. Gowdy looks drunk. nt

[Ponietz]

102. I've watched Gowdy closely before

He appears stoned.

[catchnrelease]

105. He was in a trance

His head was kind of tilting to the side and I expected him to start drooling!

[cp]

40. Booyah!

[Jim__]

41. Republican questions only work when the person they're questioning is not allowed to answer.

That's why when they are asking questions, they rarely allow the person to answer.

[LincolnRossiter]

42. That was SAVAGE...

Props to Strzok...

[charlyvi]

45. The Savage Truth! n/t

[colorado_ufo]

43. Gowdy: The Amazing Shrinking Man!

[onlyadream]

46. Thank you for posting this video!

What a treat you t was to see that tongue lashing! Gowdy looks dumbfounded.

[SallyHemmings]

49. Thanks for the post!

In addition to living in Trumpland, I was having a challenging day...

THiS cheered me up!!!!

[samnsara]

53. who the hell would deliberately go up against a highly trained, highly skilled FBI agent?

...on purpose?...and think that somehow you would come out on top?


nope...

[MyOwnPeace]

86. Really?

They think they are the "be-all-to-end-all" - the top shits in the game - nobody can get one over on them.
Look at how long they've been allowed this "Benghazi" shit to go on. Who could stop them?

Now we know - people with character, morals, convictions, and truth.

That, plus GET OUT THE VOTE, will help get our country back (yeah, the REAL country - the right way!).

[mobeau69]

54. Loving' every minute of this shit show.

[Renew Deal]

55. Why does Gowdy save his best hair styles for congressional hearings?

Is he sleeping in his office again?

[AllaN01Bear]

56. this and all agents are loyal to the constitiution and not donald dip shit.

he is also a private citizen and is protected under the first amendment . go read it donald fuck up.

[msdogi]

58. That was fun!

Really good to watch this, somehow gives me lots of hope for our futures...

[Dave Starsky]

60. Good Lord. That is how you deliver a proper beating on an asshole.

Watch Gowdy sweat and shrink down into his chair like a melted candle.

This is the best video I will watch all day.

[charlyvi]

62. Maybe all week. Or year. n/t

[CrispyQ]

61. That was worth 2 minutes!

[ehrnst]

63. I think he singed what was left of Gowdy's eyebrows off.

That was Hollywood courtroom drama feature film level of breathtaking testimony, barely contained righteous fury, and managed to skewer Dear Leader as well....

[charlyvi]

64. Gowdy has eyebrows? n/t

[Dave Starsky]

66. Ha ha! I thought the same thing.

No one can help their looks, but he does sort of look like a garden gnome that didn't make it all the way through the manufacturing process.

[MyOwnPeace]

88. Oh, SNAP!!!!!!!

You NAILED it - that's EXACTLY what he looks like!

(No wonder Hutch like working with you so much!)

[Politicub]

69. And Gowdy's head was more pointy, probably because

he just pulled it out of Trump's asshole.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

67. I don't think I've ever seen Gowdy sit quietly for so long.

Stunning.

[Politicub]

68. That's how to deal with a bully!

Truthfully and forcefully.

I needed to hear this. Outstanding testimony.

[Takket]

71. He said exactly what any reasonable person would have believed

That “we” referred to to voting public, not himself, the text receiver or the FBI.

[czarjak]

72. Still over his head...

[elleng]

73. GREAT to see this!

[charlyvi]

75. Yes, indeed Elleng.

So often the press doesn’t cover defiance.

[elleng]

79. Right!

I just returned home after a few chores, so I guess I'm late to what I'll call the 'party,' as well it should be called.

[swimboy]

76. AWESTRZOK!!!

[charlyvi]

78. LOL!

[Amimnoch]

82. Is Peter a "natural born citizen"? Can HE be our next POTUS???

Damn, what I wouldn’t be willing to do for his election campaign!!!

[ProfessorGAC]

85. Anybody Want To Bet Against...

...Faux editing and parsing this clip?
I figure not!

[orangecrush]

89. WOOO HOOO!

DAYUM!!!


THEY BIT OFF MORE THAN THEY COULD CHEW WITH THIS GUY!!!!!

[charlyvi]

90. Backfire bigly! n/t

[orangecrush]

93. PRICELESS!!!

[Progressive dog]

91. Republicans like Gowdy are

helping that psychopathic infant align us with dictators. It's nice that Gowdy's plans to use Strotz as a scapegoat are not working out.
Strotz did not crumble before the wrath of Trump's boot-lickers.

[pangaia]

98. This is what I wish ALL, EVERY SINGLE ONE of our Democratic elected officials would do..

RIGHT FUCKIN' NOW !!!

Metaphorically punch, smash, step on, slice, disembowel, attack all these fuckers from trump on down..

ALL DAY 24/7..

[dchill]

99. But! But! ... Benghazi!!!

[Raastan]

100. K + R

[TryLogic]

101. Trey Gowdy acts out his ugliness, and he is "ugly as sin".

[TxVietVet]

104. The conservanazi got put in his place.

The conservanazis can’t stand it when the encounter an intelligent competent human being.
FUCK TRUMP.

[Cha]

106. First time I've seen Peter Strzok..

He's impressive!

Mahlalo, charlyvi!

[guss]

108. puppet

Howdee Gowdee is Such a puppet player
Sucks so much A##

[Raster]

110. Howdy Gowdy got it a long time ago, but still chose to be a tRump* sycophant.

[Nitram]

111. Wow! Well done. sir!
