President Barack Obama’s former national security adviser, Susan Rice, is caught like a rat in a glue trap and there is nothing that the establishment media can do but try to block your view.

It’s not their best look, but it’s all they’ve got.

Naturally, The New York Times and CNN led the pack.

The Times on Monday described the scandal as “a string of reports in conservative news media outlets,” conveniently ignoring the corroboration of moderate sources like Bloomberg View. The headline: “Trump Tries to Deflect Russia Scrutiny, Citing ‘Crooked Scheme’ by Obama.”

CNN’s Don Lemon ignored the stunning revelations of a politically motivated abuse of power, and insisted he was doing us all a favor, declaring that he would not “aid and abet the people who are trying to misinform you, the American people, by creating a diversion.”

What truly astounds me is Rice attempting to make the distinction of asking the name of a source from “unmasking” the name of the source.

If you ask for the name of a source of an intelligence report, you are unmasking it. Maybe only to yourself, but you are unmasking the source.

Why would she WANT to know the name of a source, if she had not planned on using it?

There, fixed it. It is Obama's administration. No way he didn't know.

Soooo, if the ‘establishment media’ is so into ‘unmasking’, what would they do IF President Trump used Obama’s tools on them????

While doing a little “channel surfing” of the mainstream/leftist media yesterday, the “news” and commentary I saw was all basically “Squirrel!”, “Squirrel!”, “Squirrel!”...

The Boston Herald

A lady friend (who reluctantly voted for Trump—citing SCOTUS) refuses to discuss illegal activities by the Obama Administration. She only gets TV MSM news.

The Boston Globe is Boston's biggest newspaper, and The Boston Herald has a small tabloid format. If it wasn't for Howie Carr's humorous political columns, it probably wouldn't exist in The Bay State.

Some chrome-domed idiot named Max something or other was literally foaming at the mouth on Tucker Carlson's show last night about Trump and the Russians. . .holy moly, the top of his bald little head was about to explode. . ."don't look at that woman behind the curtain unmasking names.. .I AM THE MIGHTY AND ALL POWERFUL OZ!!!!!IT'S THE RUSSIANS I TELL YOU!!

So Carlson asks for evidence of it.. .and the guy just puffs up more smoke. This guy, btw, kept emphasizing his Republican creds. . .in other words, his #neverTrump GOPe creds. TOTAL EVIL, this guy.

Didn't Rice basically admit that spying took place when she said this:

MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell got in on the action as well. “Did you seek the names of people ... to unmask the names of people involved in the Trump transition, the Trump campaign, people surrounding the president-elect in order to spy on them, in order to expose them?”

Rice blurted, “Absolutely not for any political purposes ...”

Naturally, The New York Times and CNN led the pack.

Scott Pelley was a close second, so close that when CNN stopped Pelley's nose got Smelly.
