Why the hell was Rice receiving intelligence reports about Trump?

[Mariner]

It’s going to be very difficult to prove a political motive for something otherwise legal.

Unless she incriminates herself or is fingered by one of her co-conspirators.

Abusing power to conduct opposition research..especially starting over a year ago.. damn the lot of them..

Where is all the surveillance on Clinton and her staff and advisors? Was that unmasked too?

What? You say there isn’t any surveillance on Clinton unmasked?

The only surveillance was on the political opposition? My, my.

[Sacajaweau]

I would say she didn’t have access to the info UNTIL Obama upgraded EO 12333...so all the intelligence could be shared.

[henbane]

. . . the FBI needs to challenge Susan Rice as to why she ordered the unmasking.

And ask her to turn in her important bona fides.

[KarlInOhio]

Even if she had the legal power to unmask the names in foreign intelligence intercepts, that power is not unlimited. She can’t just do it to anyone she fels like. Additionally, that gives her no legal power to leak it to the NY Time or Washington Post.

So Judge Napolitano is back on FOX again.

It’s called Staci, Nazi, KGB tactics of spying and intimidation to hold on to political power, disrupting our rule of law. I’d call that sedition.

Maxine Waters knows everything ,remember

[heights]

Calm down, Trump will write some mean Twitters, calling she and Obama “Not Nice”, “Bad People”. What more can you ask?

[Seaplaner]

You know what that’s called? That’s called espionage.

And many, many counts, would that not be correct?

And, what about CONSPIRACY? One doubts that she was freelancing and curious; rather, one suspects several peeps were involved in on this.

It's amazing the crimes that some people might commit if they thought they were working for a thoroughly corrupt leader who was powerful enough to shield them from prosecution.

My question:

What is it when an administration currently in power mishandles intelligence, unmasks names, collects info for the purpose of de-legitimizing and/or bringing down a President-elect and his incoming administration.

Granted, I am not a lawyer, but I call it treason.

If no one is held accountable a "peaceful transfer of power" will be nothing more than a feel good cliche.

We are witness to the most serious threat to our freedom since the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown in 1781.

Unless some high ranking commies are tried, convicted, sentenced, and jailed (for years), then the law means nothing.

If the crown/party/"government"/oligarchy decides where and when the law applies, or sets it aside for it's own convenience, all we have is tyranny.

It is getting close to time for some olde tyme public tarrin' & featherin'.

[sgfan1212]

She can claim she did it and acted alone and take the fall for her boss who probably ordered her to do it. What did she have to gain by doing this? What did Obama have to gain? A LOT more than her. A Trump presidency puts him in serious jeopardy for future prosecution.
