Susan Rice Email: Obama Reportedly Met With FBI/DOJ About Steele Dossier
Townhall ^ | February 13, 2018 | Matt Vespa

Posted on 02/13/2018 7:52:00 AM PST by EdnaMode

The Senate Judiciary Committee is giving former Obama National Security Adviser Susan Rice until February 22 to answer questions relating to an email she sent to herself prior to exiting from the Obama administration. It occurred during President Trump’s inauguration. The email contains classified information, so it’s a partial disclosure from the Judiciary Committee, but it seems to show that on January 5, 2017, then-President Obama, Vice President Biden, then-FBI Director James Comey, and then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates had a meeting in the Oval Office about the fallout from the Russian interference in the 2016 election.

The letter was sent to Ms. Rice from the Senate Judiciary Committee, which included excerpts from her email. The meeting also reportedly centered on the Steele dossier, which has been exposed as an extensive opposition research project subsidized by the Democrats and the Hillary Clinton campaign and executed by a research firm—Fusion GPS—who hired a former British spy to get dirt on Trump. The dossier was also used to obtain a FISA warrant on Carter Page, a former foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign.

It wasn’t the only meeting, either. She calls it a “follow on” meeting. So apparently there were earlier meetings.

Just One More Thing On Obama and the FBI.:

After weaponizing the IRS, the EPA and the court system against Americans, it’s amazing that anyone could have doubts that Obama also weaponized the FBI.

Proof that you don’t have to fly planes into our buildings to destroy America!

Fisagate-Boomerangs-Democrats-Hillary-Obama!

The champion of deceit and damaging our country was the Wrongdoer in Chief: Obama!!

@realDonaldTrump

The top Leadership and Investigators of the FBI and the Justice Department have politicized the sacred investigative process in favor of Democrats and against Republicans - something which would have been unthinkable just a short time ago. Rank & File are great people! 3:33 AM · Feb 2, 2018, Donald J. Trump

All of this sedition, surveillance and coup plotting came down from Obama's smug thugs in the DOJ/FBI!

Is this the only email she sent concerning the Russia investigation? It’s the only one I’ve heard of, and that suggests to me that someone told the people involved in the investigation not to use email to communicate with one another. Wonder why?

"So much for Obama's "scandal free" administration.

Which started with, “I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear...”

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

Yes it does, in more ways than the "average" person knows or cares to understand!

Dude, it's all over. What we're seeing here is the methodical - almost mechanical - slow reveal.

Reverse the process, and imagine Trump's team has in their possession every last bit of communications from each & every conspirator. Including Hussein and Cankles.

Now, how would one go about informing the general public - at least 50% of whom have been convinced Trump is the very devil himself, that the previous regime was a treasonous, criminal enterprise?

It's like an onion, each layer after another. The end goal is to demonstrate to the People that wide scale domestic spying has been conducted for - at least - 8 years, exactly in accordance with Snowden.

And that, in additional to full spectrum surveillance and other civil rights violations, the previous administration was engaged in wide ranging plots to weaken the nation's defenses through sales of state secrets and critical resources, while simultaneously enriching themselves. In other words, espionage, a capital crime.

If you think today is another good day, each day from here on out is going to be a "good day". More emails, more memos, more (financial) documents and records, more (secret) testimony from those who have flipped.

We won. Let that sink in; savor the moment(s). The roll-up is in process.

Written using Rice’s email address and Rice’s computer and using her government issue log in information from some where in the Government building.

Ok I’ll go with that.

Lol

"If they are planning to bring charges against so many big wigs including possibly a (Kenyan born) senior government official it’d be wise for Sessions to remain hands-off. Can you imagine a Trump agent personally issuing warrants for Hillary and Obama?

Federal Grand Jury will indict these high level crooks

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

Yes, a federal grand jury is the better course on bringing the necessary indictments.

Less political, and quicker than either the DOJ or another special prosecutor.

“Are you talking “in the strongest possible terms?””

Imagine the utter humiliation of such a letter. Nothing else would suffice.

Do any of you remember on election night, hillary told obama, “I’m sorry ... I lost.” Why did she owe him that apology, right away, that same night.

I haven’t heard that added to this equation, but wondered at the time why she owed him a win in that election .. now we know.

was this CYA note written because she was recognizing that they were no longer going to be able to control the flow of events?

Bingo!

"Robert Barnes
@Barnes_Law

Another significant finding: in her CYA email on Inauguration Day 2017, Rice states the conversation with Comey & Yates took place “in the Oval Office.” Comey denied ever meeting Obama more than 2x in his tenure, and never after 2016.

https://twitter.com/Barnes_Law/status/963152057015328768

We need to be careful with that one because technically that's not what he said...

"I spoke alone with President Obama twice in person (and never on the phone) – once in 2015 to discuss law enforcement policy issues and a second time, briefly, for him to say goodbye in late 2016,"

http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/336779-comey-talked-to-trump-nine-times-in-four-months

However, all isn't good with Comey on this issue...
"Comey’s failure to disclose this meeting to the Senate committee is likely to be viewed as an intentional and material omission of a highly relevant fact related to the Russiagate investigation."

Susan Rice one Sunday in September went on Five “news” shows and lied to the American people regarding Benghazi.

She can't be trusted.

“Going after the deniers next? Rice, clapper, brennan, kerry?”

I’d love to see Clapper hauled before the Congress to see if he will lie under oath again.

Can you imagine a Trump agent

So the Attorney General is labeled an "agent" of the POTUS?

the AG's office is a crucial part of any administration - and to have it;s wing clipped by one who refuses to do the job or renders him fire-proof from replacing because it it "wouldn't look good" - is to hamstring the administration.

In the meantime, Sessions is - deliberately or not, acting as a Gate Keeper for the Swamp...

“Jeff Sessions, pick-up the white courtesy phone....”

His phone has been ringing off the hook. He refuses to pick it up.
