There were several reasons why streaming giant Netflix pulled out of the bidding war for Warner Bros. Discovery. You might want to add Susan Rice to the list.
The former Obama national security adviser, UN ambassador, partisan Democrat and currently a Netflix board member made a splash last week, and not in a good way.
Just as the Trump administration’s Department of Justice was weighing the antitrust merits of the deal, former Obama national security adviser, UN ambassador, partisan Democrat and currently Netflix board member Rice appeared last week on a podcast hosted by Preet Bharara, former US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, a longtime Democrat and also a frequent critic of the president.
Rice warned that corporations that “take a knee” when dealing with to the Trump administration demands on various matters should expect to be “held accountable” if Dems return to power.
“If these corporations think that the Democrats, when they come back in power, . . . are going to, you know, play by the old rules, and, you know, . . . say, ‘Oh, never mind. We’ll forgive you for all the people you fired, all the policies and principles you’ve violated, all, you know, the laws you’ve skirted.’ I think they’ve got another thing coming,” Rice added.
Lets just say when the president heard about Rice’s remarks, Trump wasn’t too happy. He responded on Truth Social, “Netflix should fire racist, Trump Deranged Susan Rice, IMMEDIATELY, or pay the consequences.” he posted on his Truth Social account on Saturday.
The timing was particularly bad because the DOJ was cranking up its inquiry into Netflix’s then nearly completed, $73 billion purchase of WBD’s studio and streamer, including whether its purchase of HBO Max layered on its own streaming service constituted a monopoly that...

Email “Tricky Suzie Rice” Sent to Herself on Pres Trump’s Inauguration Day
Rice appears to have used this email trick——seemingly acting to “document” a fictitious January 5, 2017 Oval Office meeting between President Obama, FBI Director James Comey and Deputy AG Sally Yates......... regarding “Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential election.”
The duplicitous Rice....inventing a CYA meeting.....wrote:
“President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities ‘by the book’. The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book.”
Chairmen Grassley and Graham were struck by the context and timing of this email, and sent a follow up letter to Ambassador Rice. The letter reads in part:
“It strikes us as odd that, among your activities in the final moments on the final day of the Obama administration, you would feel the need to send yourself such an unusual email purporting to document a conversation involving President Obama and his interactions with the FBI regarding the Trump/Russia investigation.
In addition, despite your claim that President Obama repeatedly told Mr. Comey to proceed ‘by the book,’ substantial questions have arisen about whether officials at the FBI, as well as at the Justice Department and the State Department, actually did proceed ‘by the book.’”
Grassley asked Ambassador Rice to answer a set of questions by February 22, 2018 so the committee could further assess the situation.
The full text of the letter to Rice is at the Grassley web site.
Susan Rice should do the honorable thing.
Good.
They both deserve each other.
Susan Rice is an arrogant liar.
Rice and Pajeet whats his name are very dangerous to your freedoms and civil rights.
Susan Rice: “I speak for obama and the rest of the democrats”
“We will kill you if you do not vote for us”.
The corporations should “hire some guys”.
Maybe Vance would let them write the mercenaries off.
Did you see her ‘mein kampf’ pod cast when she told us what they will do when they regain ‘power’?
It was scary... They are all out of their minds!
It's "another think coming" you ridiculous bimbo.
Well, now...I believe she also said that they would kill us if the Democrats came into power in the next election. So, I guess that means if a Republican is a victim of murder, or ALMOST a victim, then Susan Rice needs to be hunted down & brought to justice, no matter who might actually be found to be the guilty party.
Seppuku?
This Susan Rice?
“Susan Rice sent an email to herself on January 20, 2017—President Trump’s inauguration day—summarizing a January 5, 2017 Oval Office meeting involving President Obama, Vice President Biden, FBI Director James Comey, and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates. In the email, Rice noted that President Obama stressed the importance of handling the Russia investigation “by the book” and emphasized he was not directing or interfering with law enforcement actions.”
Because doesn’t everyone send themselves emails? This is like a bank robber providing an alibi of a note he wrote to himself stating that he was at home when the bank was robbed.
