Trey Gowdy is retiring and he’s going back to private practice. The Washington Examiner reports:
Rep. Trey Gowdy will reportedly rejoin his old law firm in South Carolina after he leaves Congress next week.
The Republican leader will return to Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough as a white-collar defense attorney, sources told the Post and Courier.
The outlet reported that upon asking him about it last week, he only shrugged and smiled, neglecting to confirm or deny the scoop. That was after he hinted on Fox News that he planned to work for a firm with whom he had some “history.”
A spokesperson for Gowdy did not immediately return the Washington Examiner‘s request for comment, and neither did Nelson Mullins.
Gowdy could always come back as a political appointment in the Trump administration, but for now, his political career is over.
Love gowdy
Mistake leaving him behind
Praying That Trey Gladys gets AG or Supreme Court Appointed ?
I am really surprised that you are unable to see that Trey Gowdy is full of hot air , delivers stinging speeches but at the end NAME ONE IMVESTIGATION HE WAS LEADING. That amounted to any action or resulted in convictions of law breakers! He botched Beenghazi investigation same way he botched every one .. including the latest into Hillary’s email!!!!
Exactly!
Gowdy is from the great State Of SOUTH CAROLINA AND IS A WONDERFUL PERSON AND HS DONE WHAT HE KNOWS IS RIGHT FOR US THE PEOPLE. HAVE YOU.
Losing a good man who knows what Justice is all about . It’s a great loss for this country , hopefully he will reconsider and put some sincerity in this country along with this President . The liberal democratic wing of this government are a bunch of Corrupt Politicians who are so hypocrite it’s disgusting. After Pelosi and Schumer both voted for the wall and border security in 2009 , but now as hypocritical as they are now won’t vote again for the wall , because Trump is the President.
At a time when politicians like Gowdy are most needed he leaves! I’m not happy about it but I understand his need to do so! We need more people like Gowdy who say what they mean and mean what they say. We need more like Gowdy who take their oath seriously and are fearless in asking all the right questions regardless of who is being asked!
Honest, hard hitting and a go for broke prosecutor. Would make a GREAT Attorney General !! I reiterate, HONEST (we haven’t had one of those for a long time).
NOPE!!!
HE IS A GREAT MAN!!!!!
Many people were practically screaming at the tp of their lungs for Trump to tap him to be the Attorney General. I really hoped Gowdy had decided to step aside in the House so he could take on a role like being AG or possibly another SCOTUS member.
Yep a fiery prosecutor enjoying spotlights during hearings and NO RESULTS TO SPEAK OF!!!
Everyone can give speeches – where are The convictions?????
:NO RESULTS TO SPEAK OF”
This is so true >>>>He puts on a good show but can anyone tell
me where are the positive results ??
All I can recall is a lot of taxpayer money spent to no avail….
Wish he wasn’t leaving Government. He is one of the few people I trust in D.C
I really liked Gowdy and wish he would accept an appointment in the administration if ask that would start to make things happen there, especially if they would declassify the work he had been working on so some of these people would be weeded out and then let them keep tooting their horns.
He was worthless as a Senator so glad he’s leaving the Senate. He’s got a big ego, big mouth and no action accomplished nothing head line grabbing RINO
Congressman, NOT a Senator!
You don’t even know what office he held ! Sorry , that negates your opinion completely!
Agree with you, Gary! Joseph Hunt apparently went over the top trying to accomplish a Gowdy put-down when Hunt doesn’t even know who Gowdy is…
wuh?????? what planet are you from J Hunt……………….
True never put anyone in jail talked a good game and that was as far as it went.
RIGHT ON !!!
Says an idiot who knows notta.
He never was in the Senate.
Thank you !!! Finally a post of a person who saw what Trey Gowdy is all about – a pompous man who changes as often as his hairdo!!! He is a skillful RINO WHO WAs ABlE TO FOOL LOTS OF PEOPLE!
Joseph other than calling him a senator you are right on with your comment
Gowdy has been all talk and no action. Time to go home Trey!
And you M Menendez are a complete idiot………………
Moron.
Trey Howdy needs to be our next Attorney General. He would be America’s best Top Cop ever. There would be no looking the other way. That Jack Ass that’s been putting pressure on everyone that’s on the right, holding The President under threat of Impeachment for two years! Two Years he has heal d The Sword of Damocles over his head! For Two Years! I bet it would be brought to an end in two days!
Gowdy, a brilliant and competent lawyer and probably honest as any could be, doesn’t need a cushy lifetime government job like many of the bumbling career politicians in Washington. Good luck, and God bless you, Mr. Gowdy. and thank-you for your service to our country. You leave Congress a better place than when you arrived.
