Kayleigh McEnany shreds Susan Rice over CYA email: ‘Thou doth protest too much’

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany verbally body-slammed Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice by spotlighting the web of lies she got caught in — through her own damning email to herself.

McEnany pointed out that in an April 2017 interview with PBS (see video below), Rice claimed she knew nothing about the Obama FBI’s illegal surveillance of Trump campaign officials.

Rice’s denial directly contradicted a bizarre CYA (cover your *ss) email she had sent herself three months earlier — on Jan. 20, 2017 — the day that President Donald Trump was inaugurated.

In that self-incriminating note, Rice insisted three times that the FBI’s unlawful surveillance of Trump aides was done “by the book.”

Kayleigh is an attorney who graduated from Harvard Law School. She explained how unusual it was for Rice to pen her CYA email just minutes after President Trump was sworn in.

“To set the scene, it’s Inauguration Day and you’re moving out of the White House,” McEnany remarked. “Susan Rice is moving out, reflecting on her time here, and what is she doing? She’s not packing her boxes. She’s not being nostalgic about her time in the White House. What she’s doing is writing an email where three times she writes that President Obama emphasized to conduct the investigation into Michael Flynn, ‘by the book, by the book, by the book.’ She writes it three times.”

That is exactly what Eric Holder said on many occasions, including with Fast and Furious.

It takes three years for this to come out?

Think of all the false promises that Lindsay Graham has made about “getting to the bottom of this”. And still nothing.

If it wasn’t for that new guy, Grenell, this would never come out.

Yep. I’m sure Al Capone was certain everything he did was A-OK.

But Al had nothing on these folks. They are professionals.

Or, the Shakespeare quote applicable to Kayleigh McEnany: “Though she be but little she is fierce.”

[Fast Moving Angel]

I’m really beginning to like Kayleigh.

I think he does get to the bottom quite often, but just not the right bottom.

[Gay State Conservative]

Rice is now saying that the White House counsel instructed her to write it.That,as well as "POTUS wants to know everything we're doing",brings the whole damn conspiracy right into the Oval Office.

Of course when put under oath both Rice and Horse Faced Girlfriend will develop a tragic case of amnesia.

Just shows you what stupid little liars affirmative action produces.

She’s amazing and worthy of a daily FR thread. God bless this woman.

[noexcuses]

Kayleigh isn’t on the defense...she’s supporting him - on the offense!!

Peter denied Christ 3 times.

“By the book”...

Rush nailed it today...likely the “book” is doing it by “Rules for Radicals”

I had thought Kayleigh McEnany to be just another “cute little elf”, and a relative lightweight, but as it turns out, she is something of a terrier, full of fight and spirit that would do a Rottweiler or German Shepherd proud.

Got to respect the young lady, she can be fierce and highly devastating.

These people make the Mafia look like pikers.

[SaveFerris]

Yeah they have the system rigged like nobody else.

Mad Magazine?

[Songcraft]

I don't know.   (I just found it by doing an "image search", and I thought it fit that phony, Susan Rice.)
