House Intelligence Committee Interviewing Susan Rice on Unmasking

The House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday is interviewing Susan Rice, former Obama national security adviser, on her role in unmasking Trump campaign and transition team members, a source confirmed to Breitbart News.

Rice’s appearance was requested as part of the committee’s probe into unmasking — the practice of requesting the identities of American citizens who are swept up during in surveillance of foreign officials’ communications.

Americans’ identities are hidden to protect their privacy, but officials can request their identities, with the approval of a senior intelligence official.

In April, several news outlets revealed that Rice had unmasked Trump campaign and transition team members.

Rice has insisted that she did not do anything illegal. While unmasking is not legal, leaking classified intelligence to media outlets is.

Congressional investigations are worthless. Sessions should order the FBI to investigate and keep the Obama holdovers out of it. Better yet, get rid of the Obama holdovers.

If Rice get’s 6 months in prison for Contempt of Congress, that would be progress.

She won’t give up any meaningful info.

Problem 1: House Intelligence Committee is an oxymoron.
Problem 2: Nothing will happen.
Problem 3: We are doing nothing about it.

Nothing will come of it. Republicans never hold anyone accountable for anything. Except, of course their own president who they blame for their own failures.
