So that’s what Nunes was talking about.
We got the latest new allegation that Obama National Security adviser Susan Rice was the one unmasking the identities of Trump folks talking to Russians after the election.
This is like an episode of 24. Something new every few minutes.
Some thoughts for you.
First, we don’t know this. Did it happen? It’s the same as we don’t know if Russia colluded with the Trump campaign to alter the election.
My guess is Russia did nothing to change votes. They were able to change people’s minds with some fake stories.
But we need Susan Rice to answer under oath – as we need Trump officials to do the same.
Is this a Trump deflection? It might be.
Again, we need answers from a bi-partisan committee which seems to be The Senate Intell committee.
And until we do – we will hear from so many people on both sides that are using this new story as a sign of certainty that Obama did surveillance on Trump.
Sure, Susan Rice is a political appointee – with a political past that is a tainted. But she was also National Security Adviser.
Did she break any laws? She might have.
But she might have been doing her job – to protect the government if Trump’s campaign was doing something nefarious.
Here’s what else is curious. Only a few news organizations have been covering this story about the Rice unmasking.
So far, it has been Bloomberg, Fox News, and the Wall Street Journal. Is this a sign of media bias?
It could be. It could also mean they don’t have the sources for the story. They might be working on another aspect. Let's reserve judgment until they publish or air something.
