Fast Moving Story But Lots of New Tidbits

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.

I would guess knowing how serious Trump and Sessions are will help get those uninvolved swamp members on the right track.

I haven’t heard that, but hope it is true.

Like I said earlier, we may be about find out that Obama may have spied on ANY domestic political opponent since 2009, namely:

Republican members of Congress
Republican state governors
Republican Presidential candidates in 2012 and 2016
Conservative members of the US Supreme Court
Conservative 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) organizations
Conservative members of the mainstream media (especially Fox News and radio talk show hosts)
The people who run web sites that opposed Obama (Breitbart, Infowars, National Review, Townhall, Free Republic, etc.)
Any Left-leaning politician who would foul up the Democratic Party agenda, for example Bernie Sanders

We're talking something that would make the Soviet Union-era KGB and East German Stasi turn green with envy. And now, we wonder if the untimely passing of prominent members of the Right were the result of these eavesdropping operations.

P.S. -- If the Russians warned Trump about the surveillance back before the election, then it's almost certain that the Trump campaign was deliberately feeding all kinds of disinformation in their phone and e-mail communications that ended up undermining Hillary Clinton's campaign.

I can imagine a "serious phone call" between two senior Trump campaign staff that went something like this:

"We're already wasting time and resources in Michigan and Wisconsin even though we're never going to win there. Our focus group surveys tell us that if she dresses like an oven mitt and calls our supporters 'deplorables' and 'irredeemables,' we're sunk!"

Fox News just had a banner up saying "Awaiting Closed Door Meeting House Intel Committee".

Well, if it's closed door then there's nothing we're going to see... it's just politicians screaming at each other behind closed doors. When can it go from there?

Think about it ... Trump started his “wiretapped” e-mail storm less than 48 hours after Sessions recused himself from any Russia investigation(s). This was not a coincidence.

I think any fantasy of impeachment is out of the question so I don’t think even McCain or Graham will talk that up. But I think everything else you posted is probably right and will happen soon.

After all, who would hold someone to account for violating the law?

Kings are only responsible to God and only they know God's will because they have been appointed by God.

We continually make the mistake of thinking we pick who rules over us.

“...how effective...”

Extremely effective!! It was President Trump’s initial tweet when he announced that he had been “wiretapped” (under surveillance)) that first broke the news that Trump was indeed being spied upon by the Obama White House. If he had not done this, the American people would never have been informed of what was happening.

The enemy media was NOT going to report that. i.e., “Trump was “’wiretapped’”; (hah- when hell freezes over) so he had to announce it himself. And this is just one example of his tweets getting the news out there there that would have been buried if the enemy media had their way.

Anyone who doesn’t refer to Evan McMullin as Egg McMuffin is clearly out of the loop.

Agree.

This poster has shown his ignorance in more ways than one.

Should’ve kept his mouth shut, rather than to prove it/remove all doubt.

[hoosiermama]

NUNCE dared call it “treason”!

[itsahoot]

Some how I have missed the Egg McMuffin code, to whom is that referring and why? Please.

[Jane Long]

Thanks!!

[Jane Long]

What a polite and courteous way to inquire!

It’s Evan McMullin - the McRomney foisted Prez candidate.

[Rusty0604]

He changed fast on that one.

“We know-—that is, any sane person knows-—that she could not have done this without Zero’s complicit approval or a direct order.”

Wellllll......or Valery Jaratt ....who’s really running that enterprise....

[hoosiermama]

Rices husband is an ABC producer
She is a sorority sister of Val & Holders wife iirc. She thought she had friends in high places

It really does come down to does Trump have the guts and how much will the republicans obstruct him.

There's no doubt in my mind that Trump has the guts, but the number of Republicans he can truly count on is easily done with one hand - with a couple of digits left over.
