According to a recent Wall Street Journal report Susan Rice was not alone in unmasking Team Trump officials for political purposes.

Rice admitted to unmasking Trump officials on Tuesday but she was not the Obama official who unmasked General Michael Flynn’s conversations with Russian officials.

That was a different Obama administration official.



quote:

This is where the WSJ comes in, with the new info that according to a Republican official familiar with deliberations by GOP lawmakers on the House Intelligence Committee said that the names of two U.S. citizens who were part of Mr. Trump’s transition team have been unmasked in intelligence reports. One is Mr. Flynn and the other hasn’t been identified. The report involving Mr. Flynn documented phone conversations he had in late December with the Russian ambassador to the U.S.

The WSJ then reports that Rice had requested the unmasking of at least one transition official — not Mr. Flynn — who was part of multiple foreign conversations that weren’t related to Russia.

And the punchline: “The Republican official and others said Ms. Rice wasn’t the administration official who instigated Mr. Flynn’s unmasking.”

Well when people in your campaign are talking to Russian spy's of course the NSA, CIA, and FBI are going to listen in.

I bet the other inidentified person is Nunes. Remember there was some chatter that he recognized himself in the reports when he went to view those documents.

This isn't the first time we have seen evidence of the Obama administration using government power to attack political opponents.

If you think Obama had no idea what the IRS was doing to conservative organizations, then I don't know what to tell ya.

As established,

1- the WH is not an investigative arm.

2- Listening is not the issue.

3- Unmasking goes beyond listening to "Wire tapping"

4- Unmasking by the WH is illegal UNLESS the intercept is of national security. All reports state very clearly that these had no foreign intel value and they were not about Russia or a connection.

5- Leaking is another issue that is as equally illegal as improper unmasking.

To to dumb it down for you:

1- Listen in =legal
2- Wh Unmasking =illegal
3- Leaking = illegal.

Straight forward enough for you?

I guess Don Lemon will have to lecture his audience of transgendered Vegans even more harshly to igbt:

"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain."


I am loving this. If I ate popcorn, I'd buy myself one of those 24/7 poppers.

If the allegations are true.
To quote Buford T Justice. "That's baby shite compared to what this dude's doing."
