Former President Barack Obama’s national security adviser Susan Rice ordered U.S. spy agencies to produce “detailed spreadsheets” of legal phone calls involving Donald Trump and his aides when he was running for president, according to former U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova.
“What was produced by the intelligence community at the request of Ms. Rice were detailed spreadsheets of intercepted phone calls with unmasked Trump associates in perfectly legal conversations with individuals,” diGenova told The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group Monday.
“The overheard conversations involved no illegal activity by anybody of the Trump associates, or anyone they were speaking with,” diGenova said. “In short, the only apparent illegal activity was the unmasking of the people in the calls.”
Other knowledgeable official sources with direct knowledge and who requested anonymity confirmed to TheDCNF diGenova’s description of surveillance reports Rice ordered one year before the 2016 presidential election. . .

Limited, modified hangout spreadsheets?
Hussein found out about this from watching CNN in Tahiti just like everyone else. He is mad as heck and is focusing like a laser to make sure this never happens again...
Pres. Trump ought to order the heads of ALL the intell departments to the Oval Office tomorrow. Whoever gave approval for this blatant spying on his campaign team should be fired. They had to know this was unethical or they are too stupid to hold such an important position in our government.
Wonder if she sent anything to Podesta?
H Clinton's ego was so bruised the O administration and the media needed to find an excuse to why she lost. To the point of playing the fake Russian collusion card. The fake Russian collusion card as now uncovered their criminal ACTS. Their plan to derail Trump has back fired in epic fashion and the Left Wing media continues to inadvertently drive discussion to Obama's criminal activity.
Rice took her orders from Obama and Valerie Jarret. Period. #WorsethanWatergate #ObamagateisWaterGate 2.0
Seems like the leaks are on the other foot now!
Or as we say here in Hoosierland: “Lookin’ fer dirt.”
It was their dog, it did bite, it broke the skin ... now I suppose we’re at the usual point: “So what?”
I’m with you. If this is even REMOTELY true, the GOP should be screaming for a prosecutor immediately, and be screaming for the former president to be the full target of a criminal investigation.
YOU CANNOT LET THIS “PRECEDENT” OF BEHAVIOR STAND!
Just wanted to mention that Mike Cernovich actually broke the story first: https://medium.com/@Cernovich/susan-rice-requested-unmasking-of-incoming-trump-administration-officials-30085b5cff16
Maybe that was what the “interviews” with Romney were about. Not for the SOS job but things that were hinky with information leaks during 2012.
At any other time in our history, this would cause a Constitutional crisis. This is exponentially worse than Watergate. Where is the f’ing outrage from the Reps?
That protection is now gone, because of the alternate media, social media, and President Trump, who is willing to use it.
No *Republican* could have gotten away with it. I will give you that.
‘Rat / Boner-tan-level immunities.
And guess who she was working for.
LOL.
“or did she simply say “I have read accumulated intercepts at random and have discovered some phone calls involving Donald Trump and his associates that relate to Russian hacking of the election and I want you to put them in some order for me”?”
She would still have the problem of WHY she was reading about details of phone calls the political opposition during a campaign. There IS no innocent explanation.
If true, then there goes Rice’s defense that the unmasking was incidental to or necessary for national security. This would prove that the Trump intercepts did not come out incidentally in the course of foreign intelligence surveillance, but rather it was deliberately culled from the metadata. In other words, Trump was targeted for political purposes.
The one thing that irks me to no end is whenever any subject arises about monitoring the dems default to the Russian hacking bs involving podesta. No one ever asks what about the info gleaned. Was it accurate and if so why is no one investigating the many felonies discussed.
No difference between spreadsheets, blueprints, or Post-It Notes. And the 200 thousand intelligence agencies to which the info was dispersed...
The bastards thought this through. It was like... coordinated.
