Rachel Maddow tore apart Republican Congressman Trey Gowdy on Thursday after he had the nerve to complain about the length of Robert Mueller’s special counsel investigation.

The MSNBC hosted reminded Gowdy that – hello – he was the one who dragged the pointless Benghazi hearings on for over two years, and they resulted in zero indictments.
The Mueller investigation, on the other hand, has resulted in, as Maddow said, lots of indictments and guilty pleas – and even jail time.

Maddow teed off on Rep. Gowdy:
This from the man who kept the select committee on Benghazi going for two and a half years. Kept it going until right after the 2016 presidential election whereupon he lost interest and quietly wrapped it up. Two and a half years, Trey Gowdy’s Benghazi select committee. Two and a half years. Zero indictments, zero guilty pleas, zero prison sentences, zero jailtime. But he is now demanding that the 1-year-old Robert Mueller investigation which has resulted in lots of indictments and lots of guilty pleas and even some jail time, he’s insisting that one has gone on way too long and that must be — what was he saying? Must be finished the hell up.
As Rachel Maddow pointed out on Thursday, Trey Gowdy spent more than two years pushing Benghazi conspiracy theories and wasting taxpayer dollars on a phony investigation.
That probe took place in the midst of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign when the Benghazi committee’s clear goal was to hurt her candidacy. Once they were successful and Hillary Clinton was defeated by Donald Trump – with some help from Russia and the FBI – Gowdy and his band of Benghazi cheerleaders suddenly stopped caring about the so-called scandal.
Now they expect the American people to believe they give a damn about running fair and efficient investigations?
Try again, Mr. Gowdy.
