Exactly...if CNN tells the truth....or if they are actually referring to the same documents Nunes referred to, and not some other documents. That is another possibility. Everything to fool Mr Everyday Gullible.

It's so reassuring to know that President Trump, when he comes up for re-election, will be able to use the full power of the government's intelligence apparatus to spy on political opponents and their aides and associates—to go sifting through all of their personal data and communications, and to selectively unmask certain persons and then leak information in order to attack and embarrass them.

[[The fact remains that unmasked names were leaked, which is a felony.]]

The fact SHOULD also be that it’s not legal to unmask ordinary citizen’s names for no reason- Susan rice and ilk are going to get away with this scott free- once again we have a mountain of evidence that the ‘intelligence community’ won’t be able to string together for a conviction

I have a little more faith than you that Rice and others will face penalties for their actions. It’s way too soon for me to think Trump is the same old thing we’ve been used to.

They'll be surveilling and unmasking any and all Democrats

Democrats Unmasked sounds like a horror movie--or at least the end of a Scooby Doo episode.

I don’t have faith anything will happen- it can’t- the left are covered under a huge blanket of subjective interpretation when it comes to unmasking- only the right are subject to the left’s interpretation- and always held to a much much higher standard than the left is- Technically, on paper- rice and ilk did nothing illegal- there was no felony committed- even though it was completely unethical- the left will get away with it because legally, they broke no law- the only possible law broken would be the leaking to the press- (ie ala valerie plume case) yet you and i both know that will never get pinned on rice or obama- some lackey will take the fall at best-

(Invited by Trump,) Democrats Schiff walked out of the document viewing apparently looking like a ghost. There is something there.

My take is Schiff (and Feinstein) were shell-shocked b/c they found out Obama/Rice likely spied on Democrats, too. Juvenile Obama wanting to know what they're saying behind his half-caste a**.

Trump knew Democrats would be sap-happy to see Republicans outed....no biggie to them. So it's more than likely S and F were shocked....b/c they saw evidence of Democrats spied upon.

Spying on Repubs is one thing....but Obama/Rice spying on their own party?

The revelations could be earth-shaking....maybe even Democrats' offshore financial activities, in Tahiti, French Polynesia, the Caribbean, Central America, and the like.

Trump is playing this to perfection.

After what the IRS did to Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote .......it stands to reason that every federal agency, including the NSA, was on call to assist 2016 Hillary in 2016. SHOULD also be emphasized that it’s not legal to unmask ordinary citizen’s names for no reason as Susan Rice did.

================================================

NOTE: It's a felony to willfully withhold information when applying for a FISA.

============================================

(HAT TIP OMEGATOO)

<><> If the information found in the ‘incidental’ involvement of any US Person was threatening to US Security, why did Obama's US security agencies wait for Rice’s request to unmask?

<><> Why did Rice on PBS initially deny responsibility for the unmasking?

<><> Why was this threat not unveiled at the time or since? Why now?

After all, the ‘threat’ was about to be inaugurated as President of the U.S. Shouldn’t Congress have been notified?

That the NSA didn’t unmask the information initially, plus later investigations finding NO collusion between Russia and Trump have proven that whatever suspicions Rice may have had to justify the unmasking were absolutely wrong, or more likely non-existent.

=============================================

Questions for Rice:

1. When did you request the unmasking, and from which agency? Who in that agency actually did the unmasking? Please provide the written requests you submitted.

2. Once the names were unmasked, did you still believe there was a threat to national security from the named US persons?

3. If so, with whom did you share the information, and what actions were taken to protect America?

4. If not, then you should not have shared the names with anyone else, so how did the names become known?

5. Why was any of this info deliberately withheld on the FISA application?

=====================================

Contact your Representative and Senators---demand these questions be asked.

It does seem like the surveillance was pretty widespread and not limited to Republicans. The Kennedys and Clintons spied on everyone, too, so they shouldn’t be surprised.

Liz, I’ve given up on congress. The purpose of congress is nothing more than reelection of its members. I’ve wasted too many hours these past eight years watching committee hearings on executive branch crimes come to nothing.

But, I have hope that Jeff Sessions will do the right thing, and submit the evidence the FBI has on numerous Obama felons to a dozen or so Grand Juries.

If he doesn’t, well, it is a harbinger of revolution or Article V.
