Nice. So now we’re at the “she did it but no big deal” stage.

Trust me, the thing that will do her in will be admission that she gave the stuff to her husband, the reporter, at which point she will become the sacrificial lamb.

Somehow the Wash Compost has forgotten Hillary Clinton lying to the grieving families of the four Americans murdered at Benghazi, telling them they were going to make sure that the producer of the video who was responsible would be punished. Susan Rice was not the only liar in that sordid episode.Clinton and Obama were both joining her in pitching that lie to the American public.

Rice alone is not a smoking gun but the fact that the info in question did not pertain to Russia is a smoking gun.

In order for Rice to reveal the names, she would have had to have the FISA court approve...any indication she did that OR did someone do it for her.

Ten to one Rice will plead the Fifth as will her staff.

(what's with this "unmasking" bit?)

There is precisely zero evidence that Rice used this information — assuming the reports are true — for anything other than her own official purposes or did anything unholy.

********************************************************
“Her own official purposes” my you-know-what - Rice was in it up to her eyeballs & spreading the info around ... for starters:

Also on Monday, Fox News and Bloomberg News, citing multiple sources reported that Rice had requested the intelligence information that was produced in a highly organized operation. Fox said the unmasked names of Trump aides were given to officials at the National Security Council (NSC), the Department of Defense, James Clapper, President Obama’s Director of National Intelligence, and John Brennan, Obama’s CIA Director.

Joining Rice in the alleged White House operations was her deputy Ben Rhodes, according to Fox.

It was perfectly legal for her to do spying that did not occur. (according to the msm)

...there is also still no evidence that any surveillance was targeted at Trump

Why just a few weeks back the MSM was telling us there was no surveillance of Trump by the Obama administration.

No smoking gun? If the Chevy Vega could be a howitzer with worn oil seals, it would not be more of a smoking gun than Susan Rice.

You know we’re winning when they keep trying to move the goal posts back.

Now it’s: “It’s not a big deal, everyone in the past administration unmasked everybody when spying on future or current Presidents of the United States, it’s simply routine and even basement level clerks had access and participated.”

To write that she didn’t do anything “unholy” is completely meaningless.

On January 12, 2017, Obama issued an EO....saying all the intelligence agencies could now share.

How does this fit in???....since at that point in time, the EO would have been irrelevant for the Obama administration.

But those who remained in the Trump Administration....it was a free for all.
