Sally Yates Should Be Investigated For Her Possible Role in Watergate-Style Surveillance

I’m glad the writer calls this Watergate. That was nothing more than an information gathering spy mission. In pre internet days that meant a burglary.

Same thing, and 1000 times worse.

At first I thought this was from LazNewz. Working on expanding your Brand could be Yuge in the long run....

If hse is found to be the leaker, execute her.

(from the article):" Sally Yates knew about this eavesdropping, listened in herself (Pellicano-style for those who remember the infamous LA cases),
and reported what she heard to others."

That clearly makes her an accessory / co-conspirator !
and that makes her involvment criminal.

It’d be better if he told us something new, something we don’t already know about Sally, considering he’s implying he really knows Sally Yates.

As long as the press provides cover for underhanded actions against Trump nothing will happen to the conspirators. I wonder where the GOP is? Oh yeah, I believe they want Trump to fail. They aren’t helping him at all and they will pay the price when they come up for reelection.

Wasn’t Sally acting AG when the President’s phone calls were leaked, Australia and Mexico.

Democrats are LAW-LESS because Republicans are BALL-LESS!!

The Republicans are SLOW- FOOTED, SLOW-WITTED WEAK SISTERS!!

If and WHEN they get around to do an investigation, it will be MONTHS from now and result in NOTHING!!

Love your dedication, but have a bit of an alternative explanation for some of this. Never had a matter with Ms. Yates, so I will accept your review of her.

I think the Bureau was not monitoring Flynn’s calls when he talked to the Sovs, but rather were monitoring the Sovs when they spoke with Flynn.

If the Sovs were known intel POIs, then it is reasonable to assume Bureau was conducting approved electronic surveillance on them. It’s not that Flynn was being objectively monitored, but rather his conversation was recorded when Flynn spoke to the Sovs in that legally recorded conversation, just as anyone who called the Sovs would have been.

That is not improperly obtained evidence, but it is Horse Hockeys

Now regarding Yates herself, she, as so many liberal lawyers do, set herself up to improperly use her office to try to derail the incoming administration. For that, I would have asked if she needed 5 minutes to remove at personal pictures from her office while the nice security officer here escorts her out of the building.

Be well. Keep our powder dry. The fight has just begun.

Lock her up...Jeff Sessions is going to be working overtime to drain the swamp.
