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]."

Go after the people below her, the small fry , give them immunity, and I guarantee that they will rat on the higher ups like Rice. No way will they want to face prison for what they was ordered to do.
Great to see the White House hit the Dems with some innuendo like they have been doing. They have no defense.
Martha Stewart and Scooter Libby did time for much less.
Now, if they play this right, they will also have to provide her the Witness Protection Program treatment, somehow...................
Sloppy. Spicer’s advance notification of a “troubling direction” will only give foes more time to counter with fake news and talking points. Why not let the facts speak for themselves — if and when they come out?
Why? Do you think that if Spicer would have said "Susan Rice is a lying bitch" would have accomplished anything? LOL!
#dirtyrice—Bol! I’ll have to take a look; they sound like a lot of fun.
Troubling for Obama Inc.
Ummm, don't you mean *witless* protection program? /sarc>
Is Rice loyal enough to fall on her sword? Or will she ask for immunity too?

According to reports, shortly after Trump won the Republican nomination, Susan Rice pulled intelligence transcripts of conversations between Trump, Trump advisers, and other Americans who were having discussions with foreign leaders or representatives. By law, the US govt. can monitor those conversations, but the identities of the Americans involved must be redacted (”masked”) before the information is promulgated.
The accusation is the Rice “unmasked” the intelligence and spread around the information, especially after Trump was elected. Much of the material had nothing to do with conversations with Russia, so it would not be covered by the FISA warrant that the FBI supposedly obtained to investigate Trump vis a vis Russia.
So what you have is a high Obama official using the national security apparatus to monitor the candidate of the rival party and his transition team (after he won). She then allegedly spread the information she found around with the identities of the Americans in the conversations unmasked, a federal felony.
This is bigger than Watergate...
Valerie Jarrett - Iranian born Iran-sympathizer who secretly negotiated directly with the Iranians and helped 0dunga funnel MILLION$ to them ILLEGALLY.
Lois Lerner - Dirty tricks over at the IRS
Loretta Lynch - Suggested anyone criticizing Islam be charged with a crime. Met with Bill on tarmac, what for???!!!!!
These females became willing TRAITORS because they have absolutely NO understanding of duty to, honor of, or respect for our Constitution and the rule of law.
Ask the question mainstream media! “What did Obama know, and when did he know it”.
“Why? Do you think that if Spicer would have said “Susan Rice is a lying bitch” would have accomplished anything? LOL!”
First off he lied, what investigation is looking into this? None. Where is the White House calling for a Grand Jury? If you have happy with a “Twitter Social media” response, than knock yourself out. Nothing will come of this, other then more Twitter..
Perhaps so, but if you turn states evidence on these people, you better find a safe space...................
She ILLEGALLY exposed (aka unmasked) the names of American citizens that were caught up in surveillance of foreign nationals for political purposes. Afterwards these reports were then made available to all of the various agencies as a result of Obama’s executive order allowing for wider sharing of intelligence. This rule change came right before he was to leave office. The leaks in the media began, and Mike Flynn became a victim of such leaks. And because these reports were part of national security, leaking them is a felony in itself.
There is a conspiracy involving Obama, the media and his national security apparatus. The most explosive scandal to come out of Washington, EVER.
That's an asinine statement...
I hope she's enjoyed being the house n*gg*r for Obama. He orders, and she jumps, asking "How high massa'?" Why is it that black women like Anita Hill, Cheryl Mills, and now Rice allow themselves to be used by the Dems on a regular basis? They've sold their souls to the plantation that is the Democrat Party.
Hold on, its not just her. She is the one unmasking. I think you will find that the reports were sent everywhere. And then there will be the emails and the leaking. Any political person who touched these will be in trouble. And I bet one of them was Obama. But he will not be in trouble because the President can do just about anything. I would like to see what Valerie Jarrett knew.
