Trump claims Susan Rice may have committed crime
2017-04-06
[THEHILL] President Trump on Wednesday claimed that former President Barack Obama
That’s just how white folks will do you....
’s national security adviser Susan Rice may have committed a crime by requesting the identities of Trump associates who were mentioned in U.S. surveillance, though he did not provide proof.

Rice has denied leaking the names of Trump associates and denied she did anything improper.

Asked by The New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
if Rice committed a crime, Trump said, "Do I think? Yes, I think."

Trump did not present any evidence to support that claim.
"I think it’s going to be the biggest story," Trump said. "It’s such an important story for our country and the world. It is one of the big stories of our time."

#8  From what I read, as far as we know at this point: * What Rice did was legal, but unethical.
* What Obama did to allow intelligence agencies to spread stuff far and wide was legal, but unethical.
* If there was collision between those two decisions (If Rice was acting under orders) then the combo would be illegal tampering into an election. If the orders were verbal and unrecorded (as seems likely) we'll never get to the bottom of it.

#7  I wish Mr. Trump hadn't said this. The evidence is not there yet. But I understand that he has to do this to get the news to cover the story, so the people who have the evidence hear that what they know is important. Necessary, I guess, but so irritating to watch.

#6  Turn it over to AG Jeff Sessions and push on. Sessions needs to follow this whoever is involved and wherever it may go. we've had lawlessness for far too long. There is two systems of justice; one for the little people and a different one for the elites.

#1  Well, The must be a Prophet because what he says sounds crazy at first and then turns out to be true.

Goodness My!....

The log does not lie. Nor do they deny request for sitting Executive Authority.

When you start un-masking people like that after massive inquiry,
Let me put it this way...

You gone Fishing.

This is police state.
