Sen. Graham says he was a target of 'unmasking'
FoxNews Politics ^ | 02 June 2017 | AP

Sen. Lindsey Graham says U.S. intelligence agencies tell him that a conversation he had with a foreign individual was picked up in surveillance and that an unknown U.S. official or officials asked to know his identity as a party in the conversation.

Graham says he doesn't know if intelligence agencies actually revealed his name. But he's sent a letter to the FBI, CIA and the National Security Agency seeking information on any incidental collection of his communications with foreign targets.

Graham says he wants to know if Obama administration officials sought the unmasking of Americans in foreign intelligence reports for political reasons.

{snip} House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi is objecting to subpoenas issued by the intelligence committee's Republican chairman on the Russia probe.

Pelosi says Rep. Devin Nunes should not be issuing subpoenas...

The question here...what exactly was Graham chatting on and to who...and was this of a personal nature that might embarrass Graham?

Then the other thing....does Graham chat with Russians as well?

And if Graham was unmasked....should McCain now worry that he’ll be brought up, as a mask-unmask participant?

Every phone and electronic communication is retained and stored for purposes of government surveillance Linda. That’s what’s in those huge NSA budgets you have been approving you moron.

They don't know who he is until after they unmask him.

Seems he's fine with the snooping, as long as it isn't done for political purposes.

Who says this was a foreign agent? Might have been the DNC. Graham might be afraid that the public will figure out that he’s a secret Democrat.

A good question, here’s a possible answer.

The dam is about to break, and the Uniparty scoundrels with an “R” to hide behind will start acting all indignant about the “Obama era crimes” that are about to be exposed. They hope President Trump will not expose the crooks in his own party who become loyal.

So far, President Trump has tried to work within the framework of the Republican party. I guess he’ll keep the brand but if he throws the rascals out there won’t be many currently serving Republicans left in the capitol.

Remember we’re living through times that are more complex than any Shakespeare plot. There are some signs that Graham might no longer be 100% in sync with McCain’s sick, treasonous agenda.

Ah, the plot thickens as a “prominent Republican” gets stirred into the mix.

The pickle-puffing panjandrum has been “unmasked” for a long time.

the bigger question is, why would any US citizen be unmasked unless there was compelling evidence against the party on the other line to justify that unmasking? (and where is the FISA warrant?)
