Reporter: "Senator Rand Paul has called the reports that Susan Rice ordered the unmasking of Trump's associates a "smoking gun", does the President agree with that characterization and what does he think of these reports?"
Spicer: "There is an ongoing investigation, that we have supported, looking into this matter. I will say there is a troubling direction that some of this is going in. But we're going to let this review go on before we jump to [conclusions]."

Trump promised to drain the swamp. Personally I don’t think he will fully succeed. But I expect him to make an attempt.
He’s the wild card in all this.
If he does what he promised which everything he has done so far indicates that he will then there will be arrests, indictments, convictions, and I think some really juicy secrets are about to see the light of day.
I have no clue what kind of reasoning makes you think that it would be very difficult to prove that the surveillance of Trump and unmasking of names was political and not because of national security. You keep saying that, but it seems to me as though it would very easy to prove that it was political. For one thing, that means every single instance of surveillance would have to involve a foreign national.
I’ve said many times that any hearings, investigations, etc. will be just for show. We are in an Oligarchy. The system is thoroughly corrupt and most with the power to do anything have been compromised.
1. She ASKED for the names. No reason whatsoever for this request, cuz she can only do this if there is a CRIME but she isn’t JUSTICE, she is Nat security. That us a crime.
2. She revealed names. This can only be done if there is a crime beincg committed, NOT a national security concern. (See fact that she KNEW they couldn’t get a FISA with Trump’s name involved). Crime #2.
3. Revealed tonight that she gave names TO HER REPORTER HUBBY. That is most definitely a crime.
In nine of these dies intention matter because she is not empowered to investigate crimes.
Many thanks. I just saw an article about her asking for names and if I find it tomorrow I’ll post on the thread.
I see a lot of “nothing will change” hopeless defeatism pretending to be realism and I am thankful President Trump and many of those around him are do not have that attitude.
If she talks she walks. If not she will be in heap big trouble.
Those NSA boys keep meticulous records of her requests and those will sink her and maybe others.
What a lamebrain, I’m getting sick of your jerks with the constant negativism no matter how much good is happening.
The White House has NOTHING to do with empaneling a grand jury. Let the Congress get her lies on record and then the fun beings. You, I suppose, did not think Trump had a chance either.
I think that’s possible. She’s screwed either way.
You won’t get anything else out of that idiot.
He probably pretends that he is a “conservative”.
Perfect! The whole drama is right there, in cartoon form.
That quote sounds straight from a Scooby episode.
If she illegally gained access she is the leaker since that information was strictly controlled. She is toast.
Another dumb fook checks in. You must love wallowing in shiite.
Obtaining this information under false pretenses is, I am sure, illegal. That is one reason these warrants have to be approved by a judge.
This arrest is just the beginning. Thanks for posting.
If nothing else is achieved it will seriously drain the RATs money and credibility. Paying lawyers by the month is not cheap.
“Ms Rice, after being apprised that there was no foreign policy considerations why did you continue to obtain reports on political opponents of the Obama administration?”
Even your oligarchy has conflicts. This is a perfect opportunity for an ambitious politician to take advantage of this opening.
This is going to get good.
These warrants are approved by the courts based on statements of need for the information so Rice is firmly on record as to the justification to open the surveillance.
These were based on lies. And that will be brought out. Trump is not going to let go of this. Congress, Justice and the White House will shown to not let this go.
actually, it is.
I will say there is a troubling direction that some of this is going in. But we’re going to let this review go on before we jump to [conclusions].”>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Meanwhile the Great Won remains beyond Congressional subpoena process on a private island in French Polynesia.
Susan Rice was already set up for the fall. President Trump needs to move a lot faster to net all of the fish.
