      Among the possibilities: Nominee for US Attorney in SC, nominee for the 4th Circuit, a role at DOJ (or in the FBI), or (the womp womp-est possibility for him, given his statement) a law firm?

          Wait... But Gowdy, who's long complained about the increasingly toxic nature of politics, turned down the position, the sources said. Mr. Benghazi complaining that politics was toxic? Here's a thought Mr. Gowdy Lead by example. Be the change you want to see.

          He should know about the toxic nature of politics since he was the source of much of it.

          So this makes me think he has an ethics/moral delimma that would prevent him from getting vetted/approved in the Senate. He did leave the ethics committee, and he has paid out one settlement...not sexual Harrassment as far as we know, but still...

          🤔🤔🤔🤔 I'm genuinely confused. Does he have a better grift available to him? After so many years of carrying incredibly dirty water for the GOp apparatus how could he not be after a lucrative reward?

          Gowdy knows it would be an ugly confirmation hearing. Democrats would have their knives out and for good reason.

          Then I think it is Mueller related....If he does not want circuit court, and complain of politics, he surely won't want anything higher....Maybe he had a little talk.....
