AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
House Benghazi Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy and ranking Democrat Elijah Cummings slugged it out on CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday as Gowdy sought to justify his panel’s work and Cummings questioned the committee's motives.
Gowdy, a South Carolina Republican, again dismissed comments made by three fellow Republicans that suggested the committee is aimed at hurting Hillary Clinton. The former Secretary of State is scheduled to testify before the panel on Thursday, Oct. 22.
“I have told my Republican colleagues and friends: Shut up talking about things you don’t know anything about,” Gowdy said. “They’re three people who have no idea what they’re talking about… They have no firsthand knowledge.”
