If someone got the Flynn identity from an unmasking and leaked it, then they presumably committed a crime. But unmasking itself isn't a crime, it's just gaining additional information about a classified report that you have properly justified your need to know. This would also be a Democrat talking point I’d assume.
The only person that committed a crime is the person that leaked this to the Washington Post.

he Democrats will simply say each person had to request and explain why they requested the unmasking and it went through the NSA standard process. It also states that even though the requests were made there is no guarantee that the person even saw it.
Biden said yesterday he had no part in it.
Hahahahaha

The unmasking part isn’t the crime it’s the leaking. Was Biden saying he didn’t leak it or unmask?

Now we know he also has a little old unmask request.Posted on 5/13/20 at 4:11 pm to TOKEN
My problem is they were requesting this to get to trump. Not for actually any legit reasons.

20% of Americans understand what this means.
2% of Democrats care.

My problem isn’t the unmasking it the releasing to the press. That’s really the only crime I see here.

In a nutshell. FISA warrant surveillance capture innocent Americans all the time when they speak to foreign nationals. Their names are masked when the intelligence is distributed throughout the gov't. Someone inappropriately unmasked General Flynn name which kicked off all this stuff up to attempted impeachment. This is the declassified of all those individuals that requested Flynn's name be unmasked. So most likely one of the leaked his name to the press. That is a federal crime.
Wtf?
You mean illegally?

The illegal part is when it is proven that the unmasking was part of a surveillance campaign against a US citizen
You have to get a judge to sign off on that. This was their way to avoid that legal requirement.

It is inappropriate to commit illegal acts, I guess.

what's stopping them from saying: "I just wanted to know who the redacted name was.. I asked, assuming they would say no, and the NSA guy sent it to me..."

Wrong. Unmasking is ONLY allowed for legitimate national security reasons, and then ONLY by a small subset of authorized persons. It cannot be used when “fishing for dirt”, when disingenuously trying to establish a pretext for another illegal act (FISA abuse), or to target a political opponent.

Do you know the reason used for unmasking?
Let’s wait and see?
