Many pieces of the spying scandal on Trump are emerging today.
We know from both Mike Cernovich on Twitter (yes, he DOES have good info) and Eli Lake that Susan Rice requested the names in the "surveillance" to be "unmasked" (i.e., for the people on the wiretaps to be laid naked to the world).
We know Rice's name is on a security log somewhere, as per all rules, regulations, and practicies, in which she asked for said "unmasking." We, or the FBI if it ever chooses to do its job, can find said log very easily.
We know---that is, any sane person knows---that she could not have done this without Zero's complicit approval or a direct order.
We know this was done early, before Trump was the nominee, and so far we do NOT have any evidence that Yeb, Cruz, or Kasich were similarly "surveilled," leading me to think that the Dems ONLY feared Trump.
We know, as per A. J. Strata (http://strata-sphere.com/blog/index.php/archives/22109) that in fact the Russians didn't "spy" on anyone, that it was a PRIVATE CONTRACTOR beholden to the Dem Party, and that it was the Russians who WARNED Trump he was being spied upon.
There is a fascinating Twitter thread today from Jonathan Langdale: https://twitter.com/LarrySchweikart/status/848881406935564288
Langdale treats this like he was "imagining an argument" yet Flynn retweets and TO ME this sounds like in fact he had an extensive conversation with Flynn and that he produced this "imaginary" conversation that likely just happened.
Rush, Cernovich, Posebiac, many on Twitter, and Drudge had this really by last week. Yesterday, Fox began to run with it. Bloomberg today. Likely WSJ and a couple of other left-center rags will come out tomorrow.
The fake news media is now being forced into actually covering UNDENIABLE news that is 100% contrary to their preferences, or they will further descend into complete irrelevance.
Now, does Trump have the guts to prosecute? Yes, I think. But will it go far? Depends on, unfortunately, the Senate and crazy members of the House. Will they support a LEGIT investigation of Zero, and the leaking and the unmasking, or will idiots like McTurd obstruct? My fear is that McTurd and Grahamnesty will join an "impeach" chorus rather than seek real justice.
We all know---all reasonable people on both sides of the aisle know---this is treason. This is far worse than Watergate.
The news about Trump and/or his team likely being subject to surveillance even before he was nominated confirms my initial suspicion about Sessions' motives in recusing himself. He knew he could not be involved in an investigation of a matter where he was likely a victim and/or a witness himself.
Trump better prosecute!
So many people voted for Trump because he said he would drain the swamp, he said he would prosecute.
This crap has to be cleaned up. This crap has to be prosecuted. It needs to end!! For good. Trump said he would do that.
“Donald Trump to Hillary Clinton: You Ought To Be Ashamed Of Yourself, You Should Be in Jail”
TRUMP:
“I’ll tell you what I didn’t think I’d say this and I’m going to say it and hate to say it: If I win, I’m going to instruct the attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation because there’s never been so many lies, so much deception.
“Never been anything like it and we’re going to have a special prosecutor. When I speak, I go out and speak, the people of this country are furious. In my opinion, the people that have been long-term workers at the FBI are furious.”
“A very expensive process, so we’re going to get a special prosecutor because people have been, their lives have been destroyed for doing one fifth of what you’ve done.”
LS, can`t Sessions prosecute this without Congress?
Bet this didn’t start with Trump and his team. That it’s been done to many. And for quite a long time...
Wish DJT would stay away from Twitter — unless tweeting could safe our country, it is not worth the controversy it is creating.
And this is still just the tip of the Democrat Party iceberg.
And any public official who has submitted to blackmail should be fired. Or impeached.
We’ll know how close they’re getting when the media suddenly start gushing “old news” commentaries and breathless updates concerning British royal weddings.
Ditto! Thanks, LS!
Squirming like worms on a sidewalk after a rain.
Meet Susan Rice and Evelyn Farkas

Absolutely. What I’m saying is that Trump has to move carefully because there are CRAZY people out there like McTurd-—ON OUR SIDE-—just waiting for the opportunity to impeach him.
So when Sessions moves, it has to be absolutely air tight and idiots like McTurd have to see that they would look really bad by opposing it.
Oh get off your high horse. It's an oft-used nickname amongst conservatives for that idiot, just as there are a thousand nicks for the Clintons on this board, none of which hurt anyone's credibility here.
Anyone who doesn't refer to Evan McMullin as Egg McMuffin is clearly out of the loop.
Yes. This is a very good roadmap.
Who do YOU think they are?
BTW, Joe got my hopes up way, way too much with Slick, so he isn’t the most credible guy to me.
Well, remember the Russians told W that Saddam not only had WMDs but was planning an attack. Now, I’d be quick to dismiss if FR, BR, Israeli, UN, GER, and every other intel agency didn’t also say Saddam had WMDs.
He recused himself about Russia - not unmasking of info unrelated to Russia.
He has the guts. So does Sessions. The question is, how much will the members of the swamp who are not directly involved help those who are?
LS is as credible as anyone on this or any other board.
wishful thinking on our part, but nothing will come of it.
dems, especially blacks and other minorities are immune from prosecution
lucy and the football
NOTHING will come of this (though I wish it would)
Obama could be caught on tape tapping Trump personally, he could be caught on tape lighting Trump Tower on fire, and NOTHING would come of it. Those people are immune.
They are totally teflon.
Brings up an interesting movie scene, where Rice, having left fingerprints, desperately is trying to break BACK into the Trump admin to cover her tracks.
