He said 'it doesn't fit their narrative'
The mainstream media barely covered the expected guilty plea of former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmithbecause it doesn't fit their narrative, Trey Gowdy, former chairman of the House Oversight Committee, said on Monday.
Gowdy, a Fox News contributor, told “Fox & Friends” on Monday that former FBI director James Comey, the Democrats and “the D.C. media belittled us for looking into FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] abuse.”

Gowdy made the comments three days after two sources told Fox News Clinesmith will plead guilty to making a false statement in the first criminal case arising from U.S. Attorney John Durham’s review of the investigation into links between Russia and the 2016 Trump campaign.
