Reuters ^ | 26 June 2017

Posted on 06/28/2017 7:02:34 AM PDT by Lorianne

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday demanded that investigators apologize for looking into Russian interference and possible collusion with his 2016 election campaign, accusing predecessor President Barack Obama of having "colluded or obstructed," but he did not provide evidence.

Next time he’ll have to claim unnamed sources.

That's what's next. After showing the world the duplicitous nature using the "collusion" word, he'll next show the same duplicity over sourcing. Well, HE won't, but it will happen.

I’d say there is probably more evidence to support Donald Trump than
anything the Liberals in Congress or the media have in their possession.

This crap is just bad fiction and they Liberals know it.

If Obama had of opened an investigation of “Russian Interference” it would present four problems:
1. FBI would have gone through the DNC computers.
2. Hillary's bootleg server would then become an issue again in relationship to what the Russians may have gotten from her.
3.A real investigation of the DNC and Hillary may indeed show that the Russians interfered in the election on the side of Hillary.
4. The issue of Homeland Security trying to breach state voter roles and systems would then become an issue. Number 4 is a biggie that the news media has buried.

Evidence? Aside from the recent propaganda piece of Zero, the 2nd Commie, knowing Russia was hacking (while doing NOTHING when China stole troves of data) vs. his “No possible way to hack our elections” statement(s)??

Knew it + did nothing + “more flexibility”....adds up to collusion to me

AWARDED FREEPER POST OF THE YEAR: Obama and his minions started developing the “Russian hacked the election” narrative to give them cover for their blatantly illegal spying on the Trump campaign. This is the stuff of third-rate banana republics, Susan Rice, and all concerned including Barack should be in prison right this minute. (hat tip Junk Silver)

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

FROM ONE OF THE MANY EXPOSES---Seeking to retain his position as CIA director under Hillary, CIA's Brennan used phony foreign intel as a pretext for a multi-agency investigation into Trump.....that led the FBI to probe a computer server connected to Trump Tower and gave cover to Susan Rice's sifting operations....

Not only Brennan.... "Susan The Sifter" had a dog in this hunt......Hillary tapped her for Secy of State. One could conclude Comey also had his reasons .....to stay on as FBI director.

Mighty powerful incentives for anti-Trump shenanigans.

.......apparently there are records proving that Obama's CIA director, John Brennan, oversaw repeated spying on the phone calls of President Donald Trump and millions of other private American citizens. An audiotape just released by Federal Judge G. Murray Snow is part of a civil case........

Susan rice is so stupid, her public explanations of her intel activities set her up for a precipitous fall. Taxpayers demand Rice answer questions....and they want answers now.

Questions for Rice:

1. When did you request the unmasking, and from which agency?

2. Who in that agency actually did the unmasking? Please provide the written requests you submitted.

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

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

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

6. Why was any of the info detailed here deliberately withheld on the FISA application? (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 US Security, and America citizens' safety, why did US security agencies wait for Rice’s request to unmask?

<><> Did Obama issue a secret stand down order?

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

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

Alarmingly, the supposed ‘threat’ identified by Rice was about to be inaugurated as President of the US. Shouldn’t Congress have been notified? Why did Rice keep it a secret? Maybe she planned to collude w/ the Clintons to sell the intel to a foreign country?

The NSA didn’t unmask the information initially, plus later investigations found NO collusion between Russia and Trump. Seems to be proof-positive that whatever suspicions Obama/Rice/Brennan may have had to justify the unmasking were absolutely wrong, or more likely non-existent.

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

Capitol Switchboard 1-866-220-0044

Contact your Representative and Senators---demand these questions blanket the media---and demand Susan Rice answer them.

Others have noted it here, but didn’t Obama-lama-ding-dong hisself issue some kind of story recently saying that “he and senior administration members” were told of the Russian hacking last August but DID NOTHING ABOUT IT?

Not only does that count as evidence for President Trump’s comments, the smoke is still rising from the gun! Unless, of course, you have your head so firmly up the arse of the DNC. Sorta like ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, AP, Reuters and other purveyors of “all the news the way we want you to have it”.

"Tell Vladmir that I’ll have more flexibility after the election.” That kind of evidence?
