Biden Among Those Who Requested ‘Unmasking’ Of Michael Flynn
forbes.com ^ | May 13, 2020

Posted on 05/13/2020 6:48:48 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Former Vice President Joe Biden was among those who requested Michael Flynn’s identity be revealed in intelligence reports — a process known as “unmasking” — according to documents made available to two Republican senators by Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell on Wednesday.

According to the document, Biden made the request on January 12, 2017, eight days before leaving office; an accompanying memo to Grenell, signed by National Security Agency Director Paul Nakasone, specifies that each official listed was “an authorized recipient” and that the “unmasking” was approved through the agency’s normal process.

Sens. Grassley and Johnson said in a statement that Biden and other officials included should “confirm whether they reviewed this information, why they asked for it and what they did with it.”

Isn't that twisted? Why not ask them to nod their head to indicate no, with a little nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more.

The demorats had to know biden and barry had done these dirty plays... yet they let him run on the dem ticket.. they thought it would not come up? or are they so thick in this pit...the swamp pit.. that they thought they could win in the face of the dirty politics they played on Trump.

Makes no sense... Trump is going to put biden to bed in the first debate... what were they thinking? so sure of their law breaking and dirt piled on dirt... so sure of themselves ? it’s unbelievable!!!

And the dem party used to be known... untrue, but known for their supposedly taking care of the little people? I never saw the dem party as that.. I saw them as the stuck up elite who were on the other side of nice and the other side of good and the other side of truth.. but today, they have become something else.. really bad plans... socialist and communism... and for those who vote dem... you’d better take a second look.. for if you still vote dem.. i think you are not to be trusted and you have no sense any more... you are as bad as they are.. and that’s pretty bad..

I would wager that there were more unmasking requests from within the Obama regime during its last 6 months than the other 90 months combined. And a VP asking the intelligence community to unmask American citizens?

BTW, is there any way of “masking” pelosi and fienstein and waters and AOC and tlaib and omar and nadler and anybody else that is utterly repulsive?

Well AOC isn’t repulsive, just anything that comes out of her mouth is

I still don’t understand what unmasking means...my concern is the general public doesn’t either. Changing the language would help educate.

that they thought they could win in the face of the dirty politics they played on Trump.

Or maybe they thought that the mainstream media would bury the story, and the DoJ would let it go. But no, that would never happen!

I’ve read that unmasking requests are not common occurences, but on Fox News they say there were 9000 of them in 2016. That’s about 25 a day or one every hour.

What did the Vice President know and when did he forget it?

Biden might be the first Democrat to ever truthfully testify “I don’t recall.” He really has always been a nasty piece of work, but he doesn’t know what day it is anymore. Dumb + senile is an ugly combination.

“That’s about 25 a day or one every hour.”

They need to shut this program down. Masking is a figleaf protecting people’s 4th Amendment rights. What’s needed is full body armor.

Unmasking? Biden probably thinks he told Flynn to take off his corona virus mask when they worked together in the Obama Administration.

Because anybody other than Biden would have to defend the previous actions (sinking their political careers). The only chance they have is if Biden gets a pass by the press because they can say its an attack on a political opponent.
