House Intel Committee Member On Susan Rice Probe: ‘This Is Now A Full-Blown Investigation’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 4-13-2017 | Charles Fain Lehman

The House and Senate Intelligence Committees are expanding their investigations into former National Security Adviser Susan Rice's alleged "unmasking" of U.S. persons who were incidentally collected in surveillance of foreign officials.

An unnamed member of the House Intelligence Committee confirmed that Rice is now under "a full-blown investigation," Fox News reported on Wednesday.

"We will be performing an accounting of all unmasking for political purposes focused on the previous White House administration. This is now a full-blown investigation," the committee member said.

While she was national security advisor, Rice reportedly requested the names of US persons associated with the Trump campaign who were incidentally collected while monitoring foreign officials, according to Bloomberg‘s Eli Lake. Critics concerned about Rice's behavior are focused on whether she attempted to unmask Trump campaign officials for political purposes.

It is likely that President Donald Trump and members of his family were subjects of incidental surveillance, according to Fox, and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R., Calif.) reportedly intends to review National Security Agency and White House files to establish if information about presidential candidates or members of Congress were incidentally collected for political purposes.

Senate Intelligence Committee staffers also said they were investigating whether or not presidential candidates were unmasked, along with the roles of those potentially involved with the unmasking, including Rice

The entire “Russian narrative” was implemented afterwards, to cover their illegal acts. Obama’s rule change for exchanging that info was to legalize some of their illegal activity. All done, after they figured out Hillary lost.
There are at least 8 high level officials up to their necks in this. They need to be exposed, tried, and hanged.

Yeah, the critters talk a good game but when the dust settles, the `rat walks away with a badge of honor: `persecution’ by the after getting caught red-handed by the evil Javerts, but no punishment.

“Nunes is a mad dog who is said to be very aggressive!!”

Well, he’d better “up his game!” I didn’t like the way the little turd folded his tent on the Russia “investigation.” I’d rather see General Mad Dog Mattis in charge than “Mad Dog Nunes!” He needs to have Cong. Adam Shitt’s merkin hanging on the coat rack in his office for openers.

Given that the Obama regime was certain that Hillary was going to be the next POTUS, it is not surprising that Rice boldly unmasked Trump campaign officials for political purposes. Such lawless activity was rampant across the entire Executive Branch including the IRS, EPA, BLM, etc.

Our country had become a banana republic after 8 years of Democratic rule, and, before that, ineffective, passive resistance by the Republicans. Sad.

Critics concerned about Rice's activities focus on whether she attempted to unmask Trump's campaign team for (cough) "political purposes."

That there's even a question about this is absurd. Rice knew she was in line for Secy of State under Hillary---that's a might powerful incentive.

"Susan The Sifter" is no shrinking violet. Her hubris is such that she thought nothing of sprinting to five separate Sunday talk shows to dupe Americans into the Benghazi-video scam.

Rice never bothers to disguise her unmitigated contempt for Americans......she wears it like an Olympic medal.

Significantly, they were all running for their lives. Hillary purportedly said:" If Trump gets elected, we'll all hang.

The crimes committed by the Obama admin have yet to be unveiled.....but they will be.....to everyone's shock and amazement.

Staring today, let’s launch a campaign to have the Trump admin BAN Forever any type of ex-presidential tax-exempt foundations or do-good organizations.

Ex-presidents had four or eight years to do-good......if they didn’t accomplish it then, when they leave it’s O-V-E-R.

Our Congress is every bit as useful as the old Roman Senate, which is to say it is useless.

Permit me to offer my observation: Our Congress critters are about as useful as mammary glands on a duck.

Nunes is there to buy time. Nothing more. Something big is coming and they need time to sort it all out.

Poor sucker Nunes got the unenviable job.

A huge sign was Nunes going on bended knee and being obsequious to Dumbocrats........ to get the Dumbos off the track.

It worked. Stupid Dumbos have no idea what’s about to come down the pike.
