The FBI is, apparently, an "independent agency," which means their director does the bidding of the MSM-Democrats.
I beg to differ on this. This is way beyond the House and Senate right now. They do not have prosecutorial powers, and since it now involves people who are no longer in government it's probably outside their oversight authority for all intents and purposes. It is now a criminal matter.
For the players involved, there may be major civil lawsuits as well. I'm thinking particularly of Mike Flynn, who is now a civilian and has every right to address these matters in civil court.
The written standard for unmasking is “foreign intelligence value”, a very low threshold and darn near any bullshit story will do.
Rice is not at legal risk for unmasking, nor Obama even if it can be proven he ordered it.
The only person in legal jeopardy is the LEAKER.
They'll choose door number 2.
If they charge Rice, the headlines will be something like:
"In Nod to his KKK Supporters, Trump Starts Jailing Successful Black Figures"
LS, can`t Sessions prosecute this without Congress?
Bet this didn’t start with Trump and his team. That it’s been done to many. And for quite a long time...
Wish DJT would stay away from Twitter — unless tweeting could safe our country, it is not worth the controversy it is creating.
And this is still just the tip of the Democrat Party iceberg.
We’ll know how close they’re getting when the media suddenly start gushing “old news” commentaries and breathless updates concerning British royal weddings.
wishful thinking on our part, but nothing will come of it.
dems, especially blacks and other minorities are immune from prosecution
lucy and the football
NOTHING will come of this (though I wish it would)
Obama could be caught on tape tapping Trump personally, he could be caught on tape lighting Trump Tower on fire, and NOTHING would come of it. Those people are immune.
They are totally teflon.
Love Cernovich.
If anyone hasn’t read his unedited interview with 60 Minutes, I highly recommend it.
He took them to the mat over and over again. No wonder they edited it down to just a few minutes. He cleaned the floor with Scott Pelly.
Be interesting to see how this pans out.

All I’ve heard and seen from most news outlets today is that the information they got about Trump people was inadvertently gleaned from Russian communications. Nunes said it was NOT connected to the Russian investigation but they are still spreading the lie. When will it end?
Republican members of Congress
Republican state governors
Republican Presidential candidates in 2012 and 2016
Conservative members of the US Supreme Court
Conservative 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) organizations
Conservative members of the mainstream media (especially Fox News and radio talk show hosts)
The people who run web sites that opposed Obama (Breitbart, Infowars, National Review, Townhall, Free Republic, etc.)
Any Left-leaning politician who would foul up the Democratic Party agenda, for example Bernie Sanders
We're talking something that would make the Soviet Union-era KGB and East German Stasi turn green with envy. And now, we wonder if the untimely passing of prominent members of the Right were the result of these eavesdropping operations.
Well, if it's closed door then there's nothing we're going to see... it's just politicians screaming at each other behind closed doors. When can it go from there?

I think any fantasy of impeachment is out of the question so I don’t think even McCain or Graham will talk that up. But I think everything else you posted is probably right and will happen soon.
PING!!!
