CTH gave several warnings to be cautious and careful when reviewing political media as there are obvious attempts to push specific agenda narratives. We could tell something was up in the DC proletariat. The signals are often subtle but also follow a familiar pattern. The latest round of anti-McMaster stories are transparently part of that effort.
The long knives are out after National Security Advisor McMaster, and those knives are transparently connected to a very familiar and historic ideological world-view.
Example: Circa News writer, Sara Carter, today pushes a story about HR McMaster giving Susan Rice access -via a letter of approval- to ongoing classified intelligence; at least that’s the way the narrative engineers who pick up the ball from Carter are selling it.
Except it’s not true; that angle/narrative is entirely false.
In the letter (included below) National Security Advisor HR McMaster simply gave former NSA Susan Rice permission to continue accessing historic classified intelligence that she created and received while Mrs. Rice was President Obama’s NSA lead.
McMaster is NOT giving Rice ongoing access to new intelligence information, or current classified intelligence information. His letter was simply authorizing her to reference and have access to the historic intel work product she previously, personally and specifically was involved in.
Obviously Rice’s prior NSC work-product remains classified and as such cannot leave the control of the National Security Council. Classified NSC information can be as innocuous as emails or memos to colleagues on the NSC during her tenure as NatSec Advisor, or it could be her schedule and calendar of events. The McMaster letter simply allows Rice to have continued access to prior content she was in charge of. Nothing more.

You read a similar argument here earlier today, posted by me.
Things are not always the way FReepers see them. And Trump and Team are not the idiots many seem to think.
Sundance, Bannon, Sarah Carter are all supposed to be conservatives...
I for one do not know what to believe...there has to be some mutual exclusivity in this, so not all things can be true at once.
It’s the Never-Trumpers of the Levin/Cruz cabal that have been stirring this crap.
Saying McMasters is “purging” all the Trump loyalists.
And he did purge one that I know of, the guy who wears the tinfoil hat.
I have a question about this. I thought judicial watch submitted an FOIA request for info on Rice and her requests for unmasking. Supposedly all the docs were sent to presidential library and unavailable for 25 years. I thought that included some classified info... Yet she can still access?
Susan Rice should be in jail.
Agree.
That's why I'm trying to figure this out. I routinely trust Breitbart implicitly, but on this one it seemed a bit off.
McCain’s endorsement was the tell.
He purged three people. One was the Ezra guy that kushner and bannon went to bat for last time they tried to fire him
No, he was the guy who understands that Islam has been a threat for 1395 years.
I’ve about given up on Sundance. Lately,he seems to be twisting himself into a pretzel trying to rationalize his worldview. He seems isolated, has no connections that I can tell, and seems to draw specious conclusions in almost everything he’s writing about these days.
Sarah Carter talks a lot but doesn’t say anything. Have you noticed that? She’ll answer with ‘yep’ or ‘uh huh’ but as far as originating new thoughts, not much there.
The crowd is wrong.
I tend to agree.
OTOH, if they give her access and then monitor what she looks at, that could be enlightening or incriminating. IDK what level this game is being played at.
“McCain’s endorsement was the tell.”
Along with the rest of the Rats. The Rats, the Rinos, MSM all cheered the appointment. The Never Trumpers are rushing to defend McMaster jeez people what more do you need, he’s another one who needs to go. You could fill a few buses with people who need to go right now before Trump is completely destroyed. Ahh what’s the point, nothing gets done to stop the coup. Nothing.
Wasn't she previously, personally and specifically involved in one heck of a lot of unmasking? Does that qualify as "historic intel work product she previously, personally and specifically was involved in?"
Susan Rice told McMaster to fire all the Trumpsters including Steve Miller, and so he is doing so. Is Miller next? Will Acosta bray like a jackass?
McMaster has to go. He hates Israel. Is an Islamophile and is hiring all Globalists and retaining Obama’s people
It is a well organized campaign. But pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, we have our marching orders.
