Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) told reporters Monday afternoon that former Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice “ought to testify under oath” after Bloomberg News’s Eli Lake revealed that, during the presidential transition, she deliberately sought to “unmask” President Donald Trump’s associates from intelligence surveillance.
Paul called the reports that Rice made dozens of requests to learn more about the identities of anonymous people thought to be close to the Trump transition team, inadvertently caught on tape during investigations into foreign persons of intelligence interest, “enormous news.”
“If it is allowed, we shouldn’t be allowing it. I don’t think we should discount how big a deal it is that Susan rice was looking at these,” Paul told the assembled reporters.
The Kentucky Senator then cut to the heart of the growing political fight behind what President Trump has called “wiretapping.”
“She needs to be asked, ‘did President Obama ask her to do this?’ I think she ought to testify under oath on this,” Paul opined.
Paul also tried to tie Monday’s revelations about Rice to the slew of leaks on the topic around the time of the handover of the White House. “I think she should be asked under oath, did she reveal it to the Washington Post?” he asked.

“Not available at this time”.
““She needs to be asked, ‘did President Obama ask her to do this?’ I think she ought to testify under oath on this,” Paul opined.”
I think the question should be “did President Obama approve of this?”. I doubt if he had the knowhow to even ask her to do it. I suspect it came up that they could do it and then the plan was hatched. I also have no doubt that Valarie Jarrett was in on it and most likely others.
Rice is lawyering up...big time.
Not "Here is comes" but "Here it comes"
Have asked our overburdened admin mods to fix.

Now we’re talking!
Go Paul!
I smell a Fifth Amendment among other things. This old bag had no business working for the U.S. Government.
Maybe that golf game this weekend was more than just a golf game.
The democrat manufactured Russian conspiracy has blown back on them big time, and there’s nothing the opposition media can do to stop it. A tipping point has been reached.
I doubt this will fit into her schedule.
She will just lie. She has never shied away from lying before. So she is under oath, that won’t matter to her
The divided America Obama has left us.....
The Right wants vengeance
The Left wants vengeance
I’m Right

Below is Cernovich’s data on this criminal act by Rice:
Susan Rice Requested Unmasking of Incoming Trump Administration Officials
Susan Rice, who served as the National Security Adviser under President Obama, has been identified as the official who requested unmasking of incoming Trump officials, Cernovich Media can exclusively report.
The White House Counsel’s office identified Rice as the person responsible for the unmasking after examining Rice’s document log requests. The reports Rice requested to see are kept under tightly-controlled conditions. Each person must log her name before being granted access to them.
Upon learning of Rice’s actions, H. R. McMaster dispatched his close aide Derek Harvey to Capitol Hill to brief Chairman Nunes.
“Unmasking” is the process of identifying individuals whose communications were caught in the dragnet of intelligence gathering. While conducting investigations into terrorism and other related crimes, intelligence analysts incidentally capture conversations about parties not subject to the search warrant. The identities of individuals who are not under investigation are kept confidential, for legal and moral reasons.
