Has Susan Rice Made Herself a “Target” for Durham Probe With Langauge in Her Inaugural Day Memo to Herself?

False statements by Susan Rice in her January 20, 2017 “Memorandum to File” potentially expose her to criminal prosecution.
The declassification of the entire Susan Rice “Memorandum to File” dated January 20, 2017, and further “clarifications” given by former Amb. Rice about her role in the January 5, 2017 meeting which is the subject of the Memorandum, raise questions about what Rice wrote that could end up exposing her to criminal investigation and prosecution in ongoing Justice Department probes.
Let us start by stitching together a few factual representations about events reflected in the Memorandum as written by former Amb. Rice.
First, from the text of the Memorandum, we have the following:
“On January 5, following a briefing by IC leadership on Russian hacking during the 2016 Presidential election. President Obama had a follow-on conversation with FBI Director Comey and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates in the Oval Office. Vice President Biden and I were also present.
Susan Rice puts herself in the room for the “follow-on” briefing, which from the balance of the Memorandum concerned Gen. Flynn, and the intercepts of his conversations with Russian Ambassador Kislyak.
This is at odds with what Sally Yates told the Special Counsel’s Office (SCO) during an interview on August 15, 2017. The Memorandum of this interview is attached to the DOJ motion to dismiss the prosecution of Gen. Flynn, marked as Exh. 4. In that interview Yates told the SCO the following:
Yates first learned of the December 2016 calls between [LTG Michael] Flynn and [Russian Ambassador to the United States, Sergey] Kislyak on January 5 , 2017, while in the Oval Office. Yates, along with then-FBI Director James Comey, then-CIA Director John Brennan, and then Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, were at the White House to brief members of the Obama Administration on the classified Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian Activities in Recent Elections.
President Obama was joined by his National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, and others from the National Security Council. After the briefing, Obama dismissed the group but asked Yates and Comey to stay behind.
This sets up the factual inconsistency between the recollections of Rice and Yates about whether Rice was actually in the Oval Office during the conversation about Gen. Flynn as Rice stated in her January 20 Memorandum.
In testimony before the House Intelligence Committee on Nov. 2, 2017, Yates did not discuss the existence of this “follow-on” meeting as Rice called it. She was careful to avoid answering any question which would have disclosed the existence of the discussion about Flynn between Pres. Obama, Dir. Comey and herself. The subject of the Jan. 5 briefing is addressed beginning at p. 78, but the Committee members were unaware of Rice’s memo at that point which disclosed the existence of this “after-meeting.
h/t FReeper Liz on another thread. Lindsey?
Well guess the Libs have zero problems with President Trump using the full powers of the NSA, CIA and FBI to investigate Biden and everyone associated with him.
“Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., wants to question former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates about her actions”
As soon as I saw this, I knew this will go nowhere. Grahamnesty is all talk and no action.
The Congress is not an appropriate venue for these investigations.
They accomplish nothing AND compromise potential prosecutions.
These lawyers/politicians love to run these useless investigations.
Continuing on from their horrible treatment of AG Barr last week, today the Dims strategy is to scold Graham for interrupting the witness.
“LET HER FINISH!”
“YOU’RE INTERRUPTING HER BECAUSE SHE’S FEMALE!”
So will the GOP fight back and say, “Reclaiming my time!!”
I doubt it.
