As the Trump-Russia conspiracy express grinds on, a real scandal has been completely covered up by the corrupt mainstream media.
That is that several high-ranking officials in the Obama administration conducted extensive domestic surveillance operations against the campaign of then candidate Donald Trump. It was a gross abuse of power as well as a hijacking of the national security apparatus for political means.
The surveillance was aided by the unmasking of names of American citizens in intelligence reports that were widely distributed to political operatives.
One who has been identified as a chief culprit is former Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice.
Ms. Rice was scheduled to appear before Congress on Tuesday but her testimony was abruptly canceled with no definite date on when (or IF) she will be questioned set as of this time.

According to the Washington Examiner Susan Rices testimony to House Intelligence committee delayed: Report:
Susan Rice, former national security advisor under President Barack Obama, is no longer slated to provide testimony to the House Intelligence Committee this Tuesday.
Fox News reported last week that Rices testimony was scheduled, and is now reporting that session has apparently been postponed.
Her testimony is still expected at a later date.
Rice became the flash point in the debates over leaks about the Trump administration after she was the focal point of a Bloomberg report that said she had requested the unmasking of the names of some U.S. citizens who were accidentally caught up in routine surveillance of foreign targets.
As the Russia investigations were in their initial phases, the Trump administration was rocked when the transcript of a surveilled phone call between then-National Security Advisor Mike Flynn and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak was leaked to the press. The leak showed Flynns account of the conversation he gave to the administration was not accurate, ultimately leading to his dismissal.
In a statement, Flynn said he had, inadvertently briefed the Vice President Elect and others with incomplete information regarding the conversation.
But the issue also raised questions over what seemed to be on its face a leak by someone from within the intelligence community. And the leak seemed to be related to the unmasking of the names of people associated with the Trump campaign.
The unmasking issues seemed likely to be part of the questioning Rice would face before the committee.
The committee still has a subpoena to the National Security Agency seeking documents related to Rices unmasking activity in 2016.
Ms. Rice and other Obama regime officials are as guilty as hell in what increasingly appears to be a far-reaching and coordinated effort to manufacture a case that Trump was colluding with the Russians.
Its long past due that Rice and others are made to testify under oath about their role in the real conspiracy.
there are other testimony venues, in secret. She is being squeezed to squeal.
Blackmail, as others have said.
Trump should declare an immediate amnesty for all congress critters willing to confidentially own up to financial and non-serious law infractions, a kind of jubilee that would hobble the blackmailers.
I wonder how many servers and hard drives need to be destroyed before she gets in front of a panel.
It’s incredible what’s going on in this country. It’s become a uniparty of treachery and mobster rule.
Honest to God I’m beginning to think Trump is the most clueless man alive.
PUT the bitch in protective custody and tell her that if she gives up the big boys she will not go to prison. If not confabulate a story about her cutting a deal with the prosecution and has already given up obama, hillary, and others......then put her out on the street. Let’s see if she goes for that.
Typical swamp behavior. Criminals all.
No .. NOT HIS FAULT! ...no one is helping him..Sessions it a total loser..the house refuse to help...he still has RATS in high positions because his nominees are stalled.... poor man s overwhelmed with trying to do it all himself ...nope .NOT HIS FAULT! Sessions is a spineless establishment weasel! That was trump’s biggest mistake!
Yes. DJT is exposing them for the criminals they are. What I wonder about is, knowing this, what’s next.
Dear U.S. Taxpayer,
Your tickets for the NEXT Kabuki theater performance are still valid.
Susan Rice dies unexpectedly from gunshot to the
back of head, coroner declares it suicide.
Before or after she ties herself up?
Subpoena her.
there are other testimony venues, in secret. She is being squeezed to squeal.
Stated as fact. And you know this how?
difficult to do without a poena
She’s black (sort of) and female (sort of), so kid gloves will be used.
In any case, she’d be more valuable turned than prosecuted.
What was I thinking. This is the Congress of Cowards.
I often wonder if the opposition is simply allowed to exist because they present a suitable foil.
