Two leading Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee released a redacted top secret email Monday that Obama administration National Security Advisor Susan Rice appears to have sent herself just minutes after President Donald Trump took office.
The email contains Rices impressions from a January 5, 2017 meeting on Russian hacking during the 2016 presidential election between then-President Barack Obama, then-FBI Director James Comey, and intelligence community leadership.
According to Rice, President Obama and Comey had a follow-on conversation after the formal meeting during which Obama told Comey that from a national security perspective he wanted to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia. President Obama then asked Comey to inform him of any changes that would affect how his White House should share classified information with the incoming Trump administration.

Beware of the Blob! It leaps and creeps, slides and glides across the floor. Right through the door! All around the room, a splotch a blotch. Be careful of the blob!

I've sent an email from a work account to a personal account, but I've never sent one to the same account. That's what notepads are for.
But who writes a recap of a meeting two weeks after the fact, and on your last day at the office. It's almost like she was told to write it.
Exactly my same thought. It’s highly suspicious behavior, especially given what we now know, so any pretense that suggests Rice was acting routinely is absurd.
No doubt Clapper and Brennan.
Why aren't they named?
What makes their treason any less despicable?
For sure.

Fox and Friends is faux conservative. They only go so far on "matters".
CYA mode?
He won’t, Liz.
I find the content and timing of the email suspicious.
I do not find the act of sending oneself an email suspicious.
I do it all the time. I personally do not use notebooks. For me, paper gets moved, thrown away, or the volume becomes overwhelming.
On the other hand, I can send myself an email and when I need that information I can search using keywords. Its a great way to keep info long term.
That said, let me repeat: the content and timing are weird on every level. Its like Bart Simpson sending himself an email saying I do do anything. You cant prove it
In my line of work, on rare occasion I have sent email to myself to document something. Sometimes I write the email using handwritten notes that I had taken from the meeting; then the notes are shredded. But this would be done within a day of the meeting; as you say - it is harder to remember 15 days later and one might be tempted to include facts (subsequently known) or “thoughts” that were never discussed at the meeting.
So yes, 15 days after the meeting raises suspicion. One would need to see her work habits and other emails. For example, I would look at whether she wrote other self-emails about conversations that included BHO, how soon they were written after the meeting. Consider also it would be unusual to write an email to oneself when one knew that they would not be part of the next administration . . . perhaps in hours from the actual writing. Why would she still thinking about that meeting 15 days after it occurred and she was going out the door? Finally, Benghazi should come back to “haunt” (impeach) her on this issue - her (lack of) credibility and tendency to lie on official government matters has already been established.
Rogers helped with his meeting with Trump.
Well there you have it. I can keep my doctor too.
Only a guilty person would attempt to CYA with this email.
Yes, she had to remind herself that this time Obummer wants it “done by the book”. Likely an unusual circumstance.
Pure BS——we write emails to ourselves reminding us to pick up the laundry, buy milk, call mom.....
......NOT ABOUT global events that threaten an incoming president, using calculated language to cover-up wrongdoing.
Comey couldnt have been at the meeting. Comey testified the last time he saw Barry was in December. Surely youre not calling Comey a liar.
Susan Rice has a long distinguished career as a liar. Most recently she said she never unmasked anyone...oops. Then she said she didn’t do it for political reasons.
It would be interesting to see if she had a habit of sending emails to herself, or if this was the only one.
