Gowdy to Schiff: GOP doesn't give a damn what you think

[Music] welcome back to this special edition of Hannity anti-trump FBI agent Peter struck has been subpoenaed to testify before a public joint hearing of the House Judiciary and oversight committees next Tuesday but according to Struck's attorney Peter struck may not comply with the subpoena watch this will your client comply with the subpoena or the request Willy come on in and do another interview my client will testify publicly soon somewhere sometime we just got this subpoena today so I don't know whether or not we are going to be testifying next Tuesday in front of these two particular House subcommittees why isn't it an automatic yes a time because we have come to the conclusion we've been forced to come to the conclusion that this is not a search for truth it is a chance for Republican members of the House to preen and posture before their most radical conspiracy minded constituents joining me now with reaction is House Oversight Chairman South Carolina congressman trey Gowdy he's the author of look with the senator Tim Scott called unified and Trey thank you so much for joining us tonight some conspiracy theories he was talking about that we get the Republicans to you know buy into this stuff but I want to play a clip from Adam Schiff talking to that you were one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse so play this clip here sadly here we have all too many members of Congress willing to prostrate themselves before the executive and give him anything he wants you want to name names which members of Congress are in this cult like a group that you that you're suggesting you know the Four Horsemen of this apocalypse have been Devin Nunez and trey Gowdy the Mark meadows and Jim Jordan they have been leading the charge basically to require the Justice Department to give them materials that can be leaked or fed or misrepresented like the infamous Nunez memorandum in the service of the president interesting comments for mr. Schiff mr. Gowdy how many times have you met and interacted with Donald Trump I've never met President never had a conversation with him I didn't want to get too struck impatient in a second but with Jason initially I took that as a compliment I'm a huge Ric Flair fan so anytime somebody says you're part of the Four Horsemen I thought it was a compliment it was my wife who later said I think he's talking about those four guys from the book of Revelation so that's not a compliment let me tell you this about Adam Adams had a terrible last couple of years he wanted to be the Attorney General under Hillary Clinton and no one in the country worked harder to protect her than Adam Schiff he wanted to be the head of the CIA he wanted to run for California and the run for Senate and the People's Republic of California but he couldn't win either of those seats so now now he wants to be the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee speaking of the Apocalypse Adam Schiff wants to be the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee if you ever have I don't know a couple of free months with nothing else to do I want you to go back Jason and think of all the things you would not know if you had taken Adam shifts advise you wouldn't know the whole spontaneous reaction to a video was a hoax and Lybia you would never have read the first Chris Stevens email you wouldn't know that Hillary Clinton had this unique email arrangement with herself because Adam Schiff did everything in his power to keep you from finding out you wouldn't know about the dossier you wouldn't know who funded it you wouldn't know it was used in a court proceeding you wouldn't know about struck in Page in fact you wouldn't even be having a show tonight you wouldn't be having the show about struck and Paige if Adam Schiff had had his way so look if they secede from the union and President Maxine Waters wants to make him the Attorney General in California more power to it otherwise I don't think anybody on my side of the aisle give us much of a damn what Adam Schiff things well he certainly gets out there and says it a lot whatever is he's saying but he has I think misled and misused that position for my own personal vantage point time and time again now coming before you though is this Peter struck as I recall he originally said he would voluntarily testify that he wanted to get out and tell his story but then you heard his attorney in that clip say that he may not show up well I'm certainly sorry if anyone hurt his feelings last week during the 13 hours we but but the only thing I did was go over what he had written so if he's offended he's offended with things that he wrote he wrote a lot of texts there are emails it's an unprecedented level of animus so of course he's going to be asked what did you mean I can't use all of the words on a family friendly show like yours but what did you mean by blanking abysmal what did you mean by blanking this I we went through all of his texts here's what's important Jason he's supposed to be investigating Hillary Clinton for potential violations of the Espionage Act in March of 2016 when he's supposed to be investigating her he hadn't even interviewed her yet he thinks that she should win the presidency 100 million to zero Jason she wasn't even the nominee at the time they didn't even have a Republican nominee at the time but she's gonna win a hundred million to zero in March of 2016 and this according to the guy who's supposed to be dispassionately and objectively interviewing her then in July when the Russia probe started he is saying terrible things about the very person he's supposed to be objectively investigating and then we get till the mama probe you know I mean he's been told all three Hillary Clinton Russia probe Muller probe until they found his text he's talking about impeachment even before the House Democrats and MSNBC were talking about impeachment he had been on the case three days before he's already talking about impeaching the president so of course we're gonna have a lot of questions for him and some of them might actually be uncomfortable but he's gonna come before a public hearing whether his lawyer thinks he is or not he's coming I'm sure he would rather go in front of Adam Schiff that that's what I read he'd rather go in front of Adam Schiff they got a lot in common they both wanted Hillary Clinton to be President I get why he wants to go there but he's gonna come before our two committees whether he wants to or not well you know look Peter struck did not have an insignificant job as like I like to say he didn't work for the Fish & Wildlife Department he was the number two person and counterintelligence for the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation they have tens of thousands of people to choose from have you been able to find out why is it that he was selected or appointed to go beyond the Muller probe well you got to go all the way back to Clinton he was on the Clinton probe and then in July not only was the only Russia Pro premolar he was the lead agent on the Russia probe premolar so in July of 2016 we just got through Jim Comey with that unprecedented press conference in three weeks later he's working on Donald Trump's campaign and the Russia probe I think that group was then transposed over on till the Russia probe and then they many of them were transposed over on till the Muller probe I will give him all her credit for this the moment he found out about these texts he got rid of Peter struck but here's what you ought to be asking yourself if it was bad enough for Bob Mulder to get rid of him the moment he found out about the text these texts weren't written in March of 2017 they were written in March of 2016 so he never should have been on any of these three probes if the animus was enough to kick him off when you found it the animus should have been enough to kick him off when he said it which was early in 2016 completely the wrong person the FBI's reputation look there are lots and lots of fantastic FBI agents 99.9% of them but to pick this person at not just town Lisa page and other heretofore not identified FBI agents you remember when Jim called me I think you were in the committee room when Jim Comey said the FBI didn't give a hoot about politics yeah go read these text they gave a lot more than a hoot about who was going to be the Democratic nominee and whether Donald Trump would win well real quickly because I only got a few seconds Lisa Paige was on the other end of those texts what's gonna happen with her she's coming too I mean I heard your guests that we're all before me Jason I just disagree with them I think anytime you have a chance to spend 12 hours will the witness you all to spend it I get five minutes with Peter struck any public hearing yeah I got ten hours with him last week so we're gonna interview her and then I hope we have a public hearing with her but it's more important to me that all these questions get asked on the record talked about I mean if you want a serious investigation pick the 10 hours over the 5 minutes is what I would tell my fellow citizens and they need to get the documents from the Department of Justice trey Gowdy thank you so much for joining us tonight
