A lot of committee chairmen have announced their retirements on the Republican side.&nbsp; Now Gowdy is saying he\u2019s not coming back.&nbsp; Jason Chaffetz has left and has joined Fox News as a commentator-analyst.&nbsp; I think Fox pays better than the United States government does. I have no idea what Trey Gowdy is gonna do, but I\u2019ll tell you this. I\u2019m just gonna tell you. What was I watching? It had to be yesterday. It couldn\u2019t have been last night.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-262428\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-013118-Gowdy-FOX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-013118-Gowdy-FOX.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-013118-Gowdy-FOX-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>It was Fox &amp; Friends yesterday morning. I\u2019m watching and they had their set, their remote set. They were on a hotel rooftop across the street from the White House, and there was about five or six of them on there.&nbsp; On the far right was Trey Gowdy, and he didn\u2019t look like a guest.&nbsp; He looked like a member of that panel.&nbsp; I\u2019m just talking about the image that I got as a viewer.&nbsp; He was interacting with that panel like he was a member of that team and not a guest, and I\u2019ll share with you I had a thought.&nbsp; I said, &#8220;I wonder if&#8230;?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, I shouldn\u2019t complete the thought.&nbsp; But I had it.&nbsp; I wondered if it was an audition.&nbsp; I wondered if something was up, \u2019cause he looked like a panelist. You can tell when people are guests and they\u2019re acting as guests, and that means they\u2019re temporary occupants and when the segment is over they split.&nbsp; Trey Gowdy looked like he was on the set as a team yesterday, a member of the team.&nbsp; Anyway, he\u2019s leaving and he\u2019s good. (interruption) What are you shaking your head at in there? (interruption)&nbsp; Yeah, you\u2019re sad about it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-262429\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-013118-Gowdy-FOX-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-013118-Gowdy-FOX-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/FB-002-013118-Gowdy-FOX-2-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Okay.&nbsp; I thought you were getting mad at me for analyzing it the way I am. (interruption) Well, no, \u2019cause I\u2019m used to everybody being mad at me at one time or another for things I think or do.&nbsp; It\u2019s been my life.&nbsp; So when I say something and people are shaking their heads I say (chuckling), &#8220;Uh-oh. How did they hear that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. We\u2019ve learned a little more about why Trey Gowdy is retiring from Congress. He says, &#8220;I will not be filing for reelection or seeking any other political elective office. Instead, I\u2019ll be returning to the justice system. Whatever skills I may have are better utilized in a courtroom than in Congress. And I enjoy our justice system more than our political system.&#8221; Trey Gowdy. Going back to justice system. I wonder if that could mean &#8212; no, I better not speculate. I\u2019ll just wait and see. I\u2019ll put my guess on a piece of paper, fold it up, and give it to you later. We\u2019ll see what happens. Yeah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH:  We&#039;ve learned a little more about why Trey Gowdy is retiring from Congress. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":262429,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
