Kudos to South Carolina congressman Trey Gowdy. The Hill reports:

Former House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) tried to crash former Hillary Clinton adviser Sidney Blumenthal’s deposition before the House Select Committee on Benghazi on Tuesday.
Issa marched into the closed-door deposition and remained inside for about a minute before he was escorted out by the panel’s chairman, Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.).
The pair briefly exchanged hushed words in a nearby hallway before Issa stormed off, throwing an empty soda can into a nearby trash bin.

NBC News producer Frank Thorpe caught Gowdy and Issa in the hall:

The incident has Beltway types chuckling, but Republicans should be pleased. The Benghazi Select Committee has been endlessly disparaged as a House-endorsed witch hunt, a politically motivated inquisition set up simply to harass Hillary Clinton, and that narrative would have gained steam had Representative Issa been allowed to remain in the hearing against the rules. But Gowdy has emphasized that his commitment is, first and foremost, to the integrity of his investigation. Whatever the Select Committee ultimately unearths, he wants the investigation behind it to be unimpeachable. This small act seems a demonstration of that commitment.

As a wise man once said, “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.”
