Why did Susan Rice send herself an email purporting to document this part of the meeting? Because she was Cing her own A. Rice was nervous about the fact that, at the presidents direction, she had failed to share information fully as it relates to Russia with President Trumps incoming national security team. This violated longstanding American tradition. Outgoing administrations have always cooperated in the transition to a new administration, whether of the same or the opposing party, especially on matters relating to national security.
Susan Rice is far from the brightest bulb on the tree, but she was well aware that by concealing facts ostensibly relating to national security from her counterpart in the new administrationGeneral Michael Flynnshe was, at a minimum, violating longstanding civic norms. If she actually lied to Flynn, she could have been accused of much worse....
What were the secrets that Obama wanted to keep from the new administration? We can easily surmise that the fact that the Steele memo was paid for by the Democratic Party; that the FBI had to some degree collaborated with Steele; that the Clinton campaign had fed some of the fake news in the dossier to Steele; and that Comeys FBI had used Steeles fabrications as the basis for FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign were among the facts that Obama and his minions didnt want Michael Flynn and Donald Trump to know. Susan Rice, we can infer, was told to keep these secrets, and if anyone ever asked why she had failed to disclose them to Michael Flynn and others on Trumps team, or even lied to those people, she would have the defense that President Obama ordered her to do it.

The reason why she sent it on January 20th is obvious. That was the date the first signs of criminal conduct in the upper reaches of the Obama administration began to appear in the mainstream media:
Sending an email to yourself has got to be the world’s lamest way to “make a record”
It’s the 21st century version of “I’m not a crook”.
Obama didnt tell Trump there were investigations going on. Question is what was lynch hiding?
She knew what was going to happen, so she had to do something. In just a couple of hours she would be unemployed...................
Why is she still waking around free as a bird? The only question worth asking. See tagline
Because she knew it would be part of government archives and subject to future review and FOIA.
In effect, she making a statement “for the record.” the question is: what is the import of her statement. What does it say? What narrative is she pushing?
And anyone with more than a third grade education understands that this is exactly why she did this. In a very ham-handed manner she set to cover Obama’s dirty, stinking tracks by obviously going on and on about wanting to firmly follow the law so there would be some obvious record for her pals in the corrupt MSM to blather on for them.
Once it’s sent as an email it can never be destroyed. The best way to ensure it’ll always be there.
SEVERAL CRUCIAL POINTS (hat tip susquehanna patriot)
<><> Rice's email to herself 15 days after the meeting raises suspicions;
<><> we need to see her work habits and other emails;
<><> did she write other self-emails about conversations that included BHO;
<><> how soon were other emails written after a WH meeting, if at all.
SUSQUEHANNA PATRIOT INSIGHTFULLY POSTED: I would look at whether she wrote other
self-emails about conversations that included BHO, how soon they were written after the meeting.
JON PRESTON INSIGHTFULLY POSTED: Her e-mail wasn't contemporaneous, nor was it done
while she was still in office. It reeks and isn't worthy of a defense, even in quest of being "fair and
balanced."
====================================
ACTION NOW
Call President Trump:
Comments: 202-456-1111 Switchboard: 202-456-1414
email. president@whitehouse.gov
Exactly. She knew what was coming. The question I have is whether she discussed with Obama that she was going to write it.
BTW it wasnt the only such meeting. She referred to it as a follow on meeting. So there were earlier meetings as well.
“Its the 21st century version of Im not a crook.”
The difference being that Nixon actually wasn’t a crook.
<><> full spectrum surveillance,
<><> massive civil rights violations,
<><> wide ranging plots to weaken the nation's defenses
<><> sales of state secrets,
<><> sales of critical resources,
<><> simultaneously enriching themselves,
<><> undermining the safety and security of Americans.
Summing up...... espionage, a capital crime.
She is/was playing lets make a deal with a future prosecutor
Trump has many enemies. They will not stop, and they will not serve time. Bet the swamp on it.
You can’t prove that
Or an updated version of the 1940s “I vas only followink orders.”
Yet treason doth never prosper.
