Someone called Susan Rice the Typhoid Mary of the Obama administration.
She’s implicated Obama here.
Per your note: if Podesta got the material, we can assume Hillary did as well.
Instead of low level morons (Watergate) the NSA and other spy agencies were used to target a political opponent during a major election.
The Russian Conspiracy Theory was spun to justify the illegal monitoring.
Yep. Nailed it.
Precisely
If nothing else, this is what 25 years (!) of Clintons and at least 10 (!) of Obamas brings: intimate, if disturbing, familiarity with their methods and motives.
The Clintons have blackmailed everyone from the local Arkansas police to high-ranking federal officials.
Blackmail is almost solely responsible for Obama's political career, at least until the race-obsessed media could float him above the clouds.
It beggars belief that, given the IRS and NSA scandals, Obama was NOT spying on anyone he pleased and that he was NOT sharing this information with others, even despite his love/hate relationship with Hillary.
In a way, their spying on Trump essentially vetted him, much to their chagrin. It goes without saying that any REAL dirt - not the fake murky Russian kind - would have been used against him just as the Access Hollywood tapes were.
That’s how the obama team has always rolled. Dug up dirt on his Dem primary opponent in the Illinois senate race, unsealed the divorce records of his Republican opponent. Those were baby steps compared to this...
That was Senator Tom Cotton, if I am not mistaken.
In the Watergate incident, The DEMS went after the Republicans for spying on them TO COVER UP the fact that the DEMS had been spying on the REPUBLICANS.
Yep. Thats why “Its the Russians!” has been never ending in the MSM. Trying so hard to make it stick because that was their ticket to ride. And its not just regular ‘ol wiretapping your political opponent. You did it under the guise of a FISA warrent.
If its not “the Russians”, its “felony espionage”.
“She’s implicated Obama here.”
She most certainly did. I heard the interview on the Sean Hannity show and he passed right by Susan Rice dragging Obama into it. Sean was fixated on other parts of the interview and missed it. He played the interview again later in his show I listened very close to make sure I heard what I heard.
Haven’t yet read all of the comments, but..........
It sure puts a context for Hilary’s explosive rant to an aid after her Matt Lauer debacle “... demanding Matt Lauer be fired! She was overheard threatening executives at NBC saying “If I lose, we all go down and that Fascist F*** will have us swinging from nooses! What the f*** is wrong with you idiots?”
Compares to the Clinton era statement, “You have this magnificent military, why not use it!?”. (Madeline Albright, then Sec of State?)
The Sec of State in Obama era probably said, “You have all that intelligence, unmask it!”
It’s the Demoncrat MO... Look at Lois Lerner and the IRS situation.. Look at the Obama AG prosecutions... The pattern supporting the dem’s MO is prevalent.
“The Russian Conspiracy Theory was spun to justify the illegal monitoring.”
EXACTLY. Occam’s Razor, it is by far the simplest explanation of the entire Russia/Trump garbage for which there was never any evidence. And there is also no reason to think that Trump who wants to increase defense spending and make America Great Again would be friendlier to Putin than Clinton who sold 20% of our uranium to Putin in return for bribes to her husband and her sham foundation. You can’t bribe Trump he has a billion already.
