Susan Rice to have closed-door meeting with House Intel panel (initially refused to testify)

Obama's former national security adviser Susan Rice has agreed to meet with the House Intelligence Committee sometime next month as it continues to look into Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election, CNN reported Thursday. Obama's former hand-picked UN ambassador and National Security Advisor, Rice has become a target for GOP lawmakers who say she mishandled classified intelligence documents.

President Trump and other top Republicans have pointed to allegations that Rice revealed the names of Trump transition team associates in intelligence reports in an attempt to leak negative information about the Trump campaign. Rice has repeatedly denied the allegations.

"Former Ambassador Rice is cooperating with bipartisan Russia investigations conducted by the Intelligence Committees as she said she would," spokesman Erin Pelton said in a statement to The Hill. Rice was on a witness list agreed to by both parties. Rice will be another high-profile witness to be interviewed after fired FBI Director James Comey testified before the Senate Intelligence panel earlier this month.

Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, told CNN Thursday that the panel may need Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn to provide more records as their probe picks up.

"I think we may need more information,” the Democratic lawmaker said, referring to the files that the panel has already received from the two men.

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr (R-N.C.) would reportedly not say when Rice or other high-profile Trump witnesses would meet with his panel.

“closed door”

another white wash?

If they haven’t got their hands on the records that Obama stole - how do they get to the bottom of it - those records show who signed to be able to ‘unmask’ ...and BTW, did she even have the authority to look at those records? And who gave her the go-ahead?

smells like more cover-up

[luv2ndamend]

And the cover-up continues......

[atc23]

I thought Comey and crew gave all those black girls immunity, Rice, Mills, Brazile, Mrs Danger . . .

[Liz]

She initially refused to tetify.......so I’m guessing she and her lawyers negotiated a good deal before she consented to testify.

[thoughtomator]

She is an obvious flight risk and is major organized crime figure; she should be held in solitary confinement without bail until the matter is FULLY cleared up.

[haircutter]

Until she testifies in PUBLIC and under OATH...I will not believe any ‘Fairy Tale’ she and Hussein Obama concocted. They are both liars, and frauds...

MAKE HER TESTIMONY PUBLIC...

[\/\/ayne]

And she would have got away with it, too if not for those meddling Congressmen...oh, wait. There are none. She is getting away with it. The Mystery Van is in the scrappyyard.

[Grampa Dave]

Amen!

She's arrogant, and still thinks she's above the law. Imagine what her and her fellow leftist travelers would have done had they been able to consolidate power under a Clinton Presidency? We dodged an enormous bullet.

Those of us with at least half of a brain still working know that a Clinton/Huma presidency would have been the death of America and probably our families and us!

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Susan Rice is a known and confirmed liar. Her testimony has no value. She should already be under indictment as far as I’m concerned.

UPDATE---As of March 2017, Susan Rice (Obama's hand-picked Ntl Security Advisor) has begun a job as a Distinguished Visiting Research Fellow in the “American University’s School of International Service.”....

During her residency at A/U, Rice will work primarily on her next book and mentor SIS students on careers in national security.

A/U defines Susan Rice's position with Obama thusly: ”She provided the President with daily national security briefings and was ‘responsible for’ coordinating the formulation and implementation of ‘all aspects’ of the Administration’s foreign and national security policy, intelligence, and military efforts.

Rice is already claiming sexism and racisom victimhood......imagine what she could do in a public forum. KEEP RICE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.

Haven't you heard?

Those cards are maxed out ;)

[Liz]

I thought Comey and crew gave all those black girls immunity, Rice, Mills, Brazile, Mrs Danger . . .

Mrs Danger is in a bit of a rough spot.

As you may have read---the divorce is off and Anthony's moving back in. I guess Huma needs to keep Anthony close-by to keep his mouth zipped (not his pants).

Anthony might spill the beans about Huma's endless line of cousins dipping into Hillary's State Dept 's numerous slush funds...... the cousins becoming millionaires sucking up our tax dollars.

Also has A LOT to do w/ Huma's having the wherewithal to pay a pricey 12,000 monthly rental.....w/ her cut of the cousins' millions.

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

REFERENCE----This'll give you nightmares, people.....counting up the endless line of Huma's cousins w/ their greedy Muslim hands in the State Dept cookie jar.

UNDER HOUSE ARREST---This smirking creep is Huma's first cousin AKA a serial swindler
He subsidized businesses w/ our tax dollars looted from Hillary's State Dept. He made six million dollars vanish.

EXCERPT--“Thanks for getting in touch. Would love to arrange a meeting,” Huma Abedin replied in a June 23, 2009, email to her cousin Omar Amanat and Shamil Idriss, who heads New York-based Soliya Inc.

In May 2010, then-Secy Clinton helped Soliya get access to U.N. funding by making the U.S. a participant in a U.N. high-tech media initiative called the Alliance of Civilizations. Then in October 2010, the State Department directly awarded Soliya $1.25 million for a media technology project. “Huma helped Omar make KIT appear more valuable because of its association with the Alliance of Civilizations, which was approved by Hillary and funded in part by U.S. grants (tax dollars),” said an attorney familiar with the case.

“This helped Omar raise money for KIT, which he and his brother misappropriated for other purposes. Approximately $6 million has vanished.”

Amanat took KIT Digital public in August 2009. At the time, Amanat, known as a “serial swindler,” was in personal bankruptcy and being sued by other investors. Despite his reputation, he still managed to gain special access to US government tax dollars thanks to his ties to his well-positioned cousin and the Clinton Foundation.

THE MONEY LAUNDRY Records show that Omar Amanat and several other Abedin family members and related charities have together donated as much as $1.2 million to the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative, as well as the Clinton Health Access Initiative.

Omar Amanat, Abedin's cousin, who personally contributed as much as $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation, was appointed to the Council on Foreign Relations during the time that Hillary Clinton was serving as secretary of state.

While the FBI has apparently closed its espionage investigation into Clinton’s unsecured private email server (the House has reopened it), its public corruption investigation into the Clinton Foundation remains open.

It’s not clear if this still-active probe overlaps with the Amanat fraud investigation. However, investigators reportedly continue to look into alleged “pay-for-play” schemes involving the Clinton State Department and the Clinton Foundation and its wealthy donors, as well as entities that paid the Clintons millions of dollars in speaking fees.

Judicial Watch and other government watchdog groups have charged that the Clinton Foundation was a pay-for-play operation that rewarded its benefactors with State Department favors. And tax dollars....all you could possible want.

The supposed confrontational meeting is a month away.

Plenty of time for her to conjure up a story.. and plenty of time for the House Intel Panel to script their questions.

Just more KABUKI theater and your ticket, if you're a taxpayer, is FREE.

The outcome: No one will do ANYTHING other than perform the 3-act Kabuki show.

[KyCats]

CNN will probably manage to get Rice a complete list of the questions they’re going to ask her before the big show.

[Bob434]

now that she’s had time to concoct a cock and bull story with hte aid of her lawyers who have isntructed her in what to talk about so as to avoid incriminating herself or the previous administration- she’ll ‘testify’

Swell- almost as bad as giving zhillary time to destroy evidence and thwart the federal probe

[Liz]

Rice left a paper trail......falsified apps for FISA's....administered by a court.

She should also be ousted from her job at an American University.

As it continues to look into what?

Russia interfered in the 2016 election? Really? Boy, I bet there's tons of evidence to back up that claim.

[boop]

"We know that when the FBI interviewed Hillary, not only was it not recorded, no notes were even taken. No doubt at all this was done to protect Hillary from charges of lying or misleading. No reason why a Congressional committee can’t do the same."

I'm trying to remember if this meeting with the Comey FBI was the very same one that *allowed* Hillary and her minions to destroy their Blackberries, with HAMMERS.

Good grief, what kind of "lawman" would let THAT stand?

Barney Fife himself wouldn't let that kind of BS pass.

[Undecided 2012]

I can’t imagine the Lizard saying anything more than, “5th amendment or Executive Privilege the whole time.” That snake should have been in prison long ago.

[jjotto]

Note the the MSM tried to cover for the FBI, going on and on about FBI “notes”. But The Hill, of all places, explained what the “notes” actually were:

http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/286849-fbi-didnt-record-clinton-interview-no-sworn-oath

...The FBI did, however, complete a federal form summarizing the interview, known as an FD-302, Comey said.

Mica recommended that a copy of that summary be provided to the Oversight Committee.

Comey himself was not among the “five or six” agents who interviewed Clinton, he testified on Thursday. But he assured lawmakers that Clinton told the truth throughout the session.

“I don’t think the agents assessed she was evasive,” he added...
