...With all of that as preamble, here is what is at issue.
Q1: Did the Obama administration wrongly use its power to access NSA intercepts in multiple ways and under the guise of the Trump-Russia collusion narrative (created as DNC opposition research) in order to gain intelligence on its political enemies?
Q2: Did the Obama administration wrongly unmask NSA intercepts to target the Trump administration? Was that information then leaked to the public to Trumps detriment?
Q3: Was the Obama administration sharing NSA intercepts with Democrat political operatives?
Q4: Did the Obama administration wrongly (but legally) use FISA information to bring down its political enemies in the Trump administration?
If the answer to one or more of the first three questions is yes, then this is a scandal that dwarfs anything and everything that happened during Watergate. It is the government weaponizing our intelligence assets for political gain something far beyond what happened in Watergate. People cant skate on this. If it happened, everyone involved needs to be criminally punished or history will mark these events as the beginning of the end for our republic.
The fourth question refers to the outrageous political hit orchestrated by the FBI on Michael Flynn. It is a textbook example of why all of this matters.
Lets take these questions one at a time.

Uhh, what exactly did you *EXPECT* from govt?? Illegal, unconstrained govt, creating illegal, unconstrained agencies/dept to enforce and defend our Rights??
Hell, you can blame the (R)N(C) for creating the beast to begin. Many here championed the same, post 9-11 (or you was FOR the terrorists ‘winning’). We only needed give up a LITTLE (more and more and...) freedom for a bit of security.
Nobody cried too badly when (economic) slavery was re-introduced to this once Republic (welfare/16th vs. 5th & 13th).
Nor when Uncle Sugar would take YOUR $$, to ‘wisely’ invest, on YOUR behalf mind-you, so you could retire w/ ‘dignity’, later in life. Just don’t question why YOU couldn’t do the same, on your own, for a BETTER rate-of-return. Nor what happens if you die early, or die before ‘re-couping’ what was stolen to begin. Nor the REALLY ugly secret that govt can rescind their ‘promise’ tomorrow w/o a G.D. thing one can do about it (hint: because, it’s not YOUR $$ anymore and you were TAXED). Nor the ‘program’ has been in the RED, for ages, and is a legalized Ponzi scheme that would get YOU throw into prison for doing the same in the real world. Nor...
if even one of the 4 questions asked in this post is true then Obama and many of his administration should be headed for prison.
