Susan Rice Did Her Job And Boy Are Republicans Pissed

[boedicca]

In Lake’s telling, it was Rice who allegedly asked intelligence-agency leaders to reveal the names, which are normally “masked” to protect US citizens caught in foreign-intelligence gathering. Senator Rand Paul claimed Lake had identified the “smoking gun” that validated Donald Trump’s claims that the Obama administration was “spying on” him.

Of course, it was no such thing; even Lake reported that what Rice was alleged to do was neither a crime nor evidence of Trump’s ludicrous claim. Security officials went further: Former CIA director John McLaughlin told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell that Rice was just “doing her job.”

Susan Rice Did Her Job—and Boy Are Republicans Pissed

If doing her job means being a Lying Political Hack, then you are Spot On Correct.

The reporting came from Bloomberg not Trump and they are hardly known as big Trump backers or a right wing media outlet.

The article was written by Joan Walsh, a rabid anti Trump moon bat, she used to be with Salon.

That's all you need to know

Is Joan Walsh pretending she is sane again?

Confessions of a former self-hating white person

 

[ptbw forever]

Nice spin....but it won't work

That's what we've been telling you.....

LOL The author of this garbage, Joan Walsh, is the same Joan Walsh that screamed Anthony Wiener and Wienergate was a conspiracy dreamed up by Brietbart. Of course we now know that wasn't true, don't we

So why should she be taken serious now? Think hard, dope

She also writes for "The Nation", a publication so far left that they don't even bother pretending that they follow the Constitution.

Sure, but just think of the stink Republicans would be having if she HADN'T pressed for answers when the alarm bells started going off in her briefings. What can you expect from a president and party that blames his predecessor for the Syrian gas attack on children same as they blamed Obama for the failed Yemen sortie he ordered that went wrong?

Where did you get the idea that the Yemen SEAL raid (not sortie) went wrong?

You have no proof of anything. That is the point.

Admiral, You DID get the news that the raid 1, Accomplished nothing 2, An American was killed, and 3, several civilians including children were also killed. I am aware of the CYA effort to make it look like a mission was accomplished, but only the kool-aid drinkers swallowed that. Please let me be clear....I do not condemn the raid, and sometimes they go wrong. Nor do I take lightly the loss of life. It was a sad occasion. But, darn it, this attempt to make himself (Trump) utterly blameless for the actions HE causes ought to make even you think twice.

Are you aware that there is no way you could have accurate information on that raid unless you are committing a felony and could be locked up for a decade or so? Are you Susan Rice in real life?

Please explain how Trump was to blame for a mission that did not go exactly as planned.

By your lack of logic, I guess Obama was at fault when the helo crashed during the bin Laden raid.

Admiral, please re-read this part of my original comment...Thank you! ...From Post #34.."Please let me be clear....I do not condemn the raid, and sometimes they go wrong. Nor do I take lightly the loss of life. It was a sad occasion. But, darn it, this attempt to make himself (Trump) utterly blameless for the actions HE causes ought to make even you think twice."

Your backpedaling was noted and dismissed. Trump was, is, and shall forever be blameless because no one is to blame.

Suck it up buttercup! Your desire to find a scapegoat will forever go unsatisfied.

She asked for unmasking, it got approved through several agencies, and she didn't reveal the information to anybody. I fail to see what was illegal about her actions.

Sounds like another failed nothingburger from Trump fanatics.

She asked for unmasking

Why? Does her job involve foreign intelligence? National security? Espionage?

and she didn't reveal the information to anybody

Boy is you dumb.

HINT, WHAT IS HER TITLE? her job involves ALL intelligence, foreign and domestic that involve our Nation.

Who has that title in the Trump admin? Do you think he does not receive both domestic and foreign intelligence?

She is not a collector of intelligence. She had no right to direct use of that information for further investigation.

She is not a collector of intelligence. She had no right to direct use of that information for further investigation.

It's exactly her job to read, understand and advise the president on intelligence matters.

She did none of that.

So in other words, you have absolutely nothing so you're going to behave like a 13 year old boy and make a crude sexist joke to show how tough you are.

So true of all things Trump - you've got nothing so you bluster and you lie and you pretend it's someone else's fault. Susan Rice is just another failed attempt by you losers to deflect from the fact that you got conned. Trump and Putin played you assholes like cheap fiddles and now you're in a big mess you don't know how to get out of.

Don't worry. The impeachment will begin soon and you won't have to worry about how to hide Trump's crimes much longers.

"Sort of like in a divorce case where lawyers are hired, investigators are hired just to find out what the other person is doing from morning until night and then you try to piece it together later on.” Reports in unmasking controversy were detailed, had info about 'everyday lives'
To me thats confirmation of more than just listening in to phone calls

This is correct. Sources, within the Intel agencies, are telling me that over 97% of what was unmasked had NO FOREIGN connections (nether participant was a foreigner). This means that Rice unmasked US citizen to US citizen phone calls and conversations. A clear violation of the US Constitution and FISA intel laws..

This is now a bonfire and its not going to get put out. This has no LEGAL reasoning and can have only one motive.. Political spying on the opponent party...

Many of my friends, within the intel community, are now livid and pissed at the level of abuse .. They are now calling for an in-depth investigation into the IRS scandal as well.

Agreed, just as soon as the investigation into the possible collusion with Russia by the Trump campaign is settled, lets investigate the claims of your sources in the intel community that is so pissed at the level of abuse and can testify to all they know in open court.

Susan Rice Did Her Job And Boy Are Republicans Pissed

Yeah, NaziCons are still pissed that she wasn't lynched after Benghazi - even though she did nothing wrong.

Attacks and violent protests that were happening all over the middle east that year. That started with a shop owner setting himself on fire.

Add in one dumbass Christian pastor from California doing an imitation of a tea partier eating freedom fries, being a burning of a Koran released on a video, and effectively pouring gas on the fire.

There was no terrorist attack in Libya that night. Only a bunch of thugs with newly liberated weapons obtained from armories that were being looted all over the country after the fall of Quddaffi, which led to the attack on the embassy compound structure.

If it would have been a real planned attack, they would have gone after the main Embassy.

Benghazi is the biggest nothing burger distraction of a story in the history of bullshit distraction stories.

Such a pile of bullshit, that House majority leader Kevin McCarthy admitted in video himself that the investigations were nothing but blatant acts of hurting Clintons poll numbers at the beginning of the campaign.

Did you notice how the deaths of those four brave Americans were thrown in the trash by the committee after they found out about Clintons email server?

And what a convenient coincidence the leaked emails from John Podesta just happened to show up at the exact time the emails were released that we now know came from Russian hackers.

Which in turn has now led to an FBI investigation of Trump and his transition team.

Which must be turning up the heat on them, because not only has it led to the resignation of Mike Flynn, who is desperately seeking immunity from prosecution, that apparently is so damning, that the current head of the House intelligence committee Devin Nunes is now trying to cover up, which may lead to prosecution of him, but now the desperate attempts to distract from all of it by putting out the Susan Rice bullshit story we now find ourselves discussing.

The once famous Jon Stewart coined it very well. Climbing Bullshit Mountain.

Don't be distracted for one minute These are a bunch of lying traiterous assholes that should either be in prison, or summarily executed.

I'm for the latter. Preferrably using ropes. On national television.

You've made quite a nice mountain of bull shit to climb..

.... names were sometimes unmasked at the request of Rice...."
White House logs indicate Susan Rice consumed unmasked intel on Trump associates

I was told that the reason the FBI (Comey) and the NSA chief have not visited congress is because they do not want to answer questions regarding US citizen to US citizen unmasking. IF they are forced to divulge this to congress there will be no recourse but to arrest Rice and others for espionage. They would have to implicate some of their own staff for not denying access and they do not want this press.

 

[Oldstyle]

Complete horse shit.

Rice had no authority to have any names unmasked unless she rpesented need to know cause for the NSA to give her the names. She obviously lied which is fraud and probably also perjury as most of the time you have to sign a form that you swear the information you give is true.

What is really funny though is the desperate effort of the left to try and convince Americans that it is entirely OK and proper for our President to spy on his political opposition, roflmao.

Rice had no authority to have any names unmasked unless she rpesented need to know cause for the NSA to give her the names.

The very fact that her request was granted shows she followed the correct procedures.

And the very fact that she then lied about doing so shows that she knew she'd done something wrong, Hutch!

How so?

She stated that she hadn't done something that it's obvious she did do! Why would she lie about it?

She just did an interview explaining how it worked.

Did Susan explain why she denied knowing anything about the unmasking that took place when it's pretty obvious she knew a whole lot about it, Hutch?

The person that's lying here, Care...is Susan Rice...and it's not the first time for her! For her to claim that she knew nothing about the "unmasking" when in fact it turned out that she knew quite a bit about it is simply one more example of people in the Obama Administration lying to the American people! The very fact that she felt compelled to lie in the first place speaks volumes about what they were doing! You lie like that when you know that you've been doing things that you shouldn't.

NO ONE KNEW what Nunes was talking about when he did his strange and elusive press conferences that morning of rice's interview....even a week later NO ONE HAD A CLUE what Nunes had mumbled on about.....there is no way Rice or ANYONE knew what Nunes was saying....

Her interview was not to talk about Nunes's cloak and dagger white house trips and press conferences...that happened an hour or so before her scheduled interview... for goodness sake!

the trump person leaking this info to you guys, IS A LEAKER and should be put in JAIL....

even Nunes is under an ethics investigation because he released information on FISA WARRANT cases, which BREAKS the Law, that's why he had to step down as chairman yesterday....

Rice didn't leak a thing, not a single thing....but Trumpettes, HAVE....
