Trey Gowdy reacts to DOJ dropping criminal case against Flynn   Fox News contributor Trey Gowdy joins ‘Sunday Morning Futures.’

Former House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy reacted to what he called “an amazing statement” from former President Obama, who had claimed the “rule of law is at risk” after the Justice Department moved to end its case against former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.

“Where is [Obama’s] respect for the rule of law for the crime that Michael Flynn was the victim of?” Gowdy, a Fox News contributor, asked on “Sunday Morning Futures.”

“Remember, he was unmasked by somebody in Obama’s administration and then it was leaked... that is a 10-year felony, to disseminate classified information,” he continued. “Michael Flynn was a victim of that crime.”

The Justice Department moved to end its case against Flynn after internal memos were released raising serious questions about the nature of the investigation that led to Flynn’s late-2017 guilty plea for lying to the FBI.

“President Obama himself pardoned people for making false statements to the government,” Gowdy noted. “He picked [Justice Department Inspector General] Michael Horowitz, that was an Obama pick.”
