Rep. Gowdy: Fast & Furious probe 'never about politics,' DOJ should not be treated as another political entity
This morning on "Starting Point with Soledad O'Brien," Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) weighed in on the Justice Department's independent inspector general's report into Operation Fast and Furious.
"I don't care whether the Bull Moose party, the Whig Party, the Republican Party or the Democrat party sanctioned gun walking. It is wrong," he says. "I have consistently said that I have no evidence that Attorney General Holder knew about gun walking before you and I knew about about it. The question then is, should he have known about it? Is there a failure to supervise and lead within the department? And that's not a political question."
"This is bigger than politics," he adds. "It's about respect for the Department of Justice, and entity I used to work for."
