Sources: Samantha Power, A Woman With No Intelligence Function, Filed "Hundreds" of Unmasking Requests In Relation to Trump and His Transition Team

Special Counsel, now. No less an authority than the poem on the Statue of Liberty demands it.

Former United Nations Ambassador Samantha Power is believed to have made "hundreds" of unmasking requests to identify individuals named in classified intelligence community reports related to Trump and his presidential transition team, according to multiple sources who said the behavior is unprecedented for an official in her position....

[Rep.] Nunes disclosed in his letter that the former Obama administration had "easy access" to sensitive classified information and that they may have used it to "achieve partisan political purposes, including the selective, anonymous leaking of such information."

Congressional investigators uncovered that "one official [whose] position has no apparent intelligence-related function"--now believed to be Power--"made hundreds of unmasking requests during the final year of the Obama administration."

Powers Boothe is #8

"While acting isn't always considered the manliest of pastimes, Boothe is known for playing vicious bastards. Also, he did have pretty big balls to actually accept his Emmy, which came during the 1980 Screen Actors Guild strike. There was a very real chance that by accepting the award he could have killed his career, which he acknowledged in his acceptance speech: "This may be either the bravest moment of my career or the dumbest." Most manly acts tend to be described in both those ways."

Clapper or some such changed the rules for unmasking. But hard to believe that was broad enough to allow such flagrant abuse for partisan agitprop.

De-Authorize Section 702.

Throw it all out. Blame Obama, blame his staff, blame everyone that did it, knew about or suspected it.

Fire them all. Tell them that you don't care. They should have followed the law, and made sure that those that didn't were reported. "You didn't because you were afraid of losing your job? Fuck You! Now you have no fucking job."

And charge them with every individual count they can prove. Drag them all into court and make them defend themselves to the American People.

Worried about National Secuity? This criminal violation of the law is more likely to destroy the US than anything Russia or China can do. Ignore it and America dies anyway.

Burn it all (figuratively) Down!

Because if you don't, there ain't nothing left anyway.

Then lawlessness. Then either Revolution or Strongman and to hell with civil law.

De-Authorize Section 702.

Throw it all out. Blame Obama, blame his staff, blame everyone that did it, knew about or suspected it.

Fire them all. Tell them that you don't care. They should have followed the law, and made sure that those that didn't were reported. "You didn't because you were afraid of losing your job? Fuck You! Now you have no fucking job."

And charge them with every individual count they can prove. Drag them all into court and make them defend themselves to the American People.

Worried about National Secuity? This criminal violation of the law is more likely to destroy the US than anything Russia or China can do. Ignore it and America dies anyway.

Oh, Chatsworth had Steyn on and he was a hoot as always, going about Jim Acosta's weapons grade stupidity. He pointed out there over 60 countries with English as an official language, including Canada (duh).

And furthermore, even on the British Isles, other languages are commonly spoken, such as Welsh and Gaelic. He then mentioned hearing some Scott bums doing rap in Gaelic on a radio station last time he was there.

He then said Acosta should've been thrown out, telling him that he wants to do the Jim Acosta show, he can go out in a rusty old boxcar where they might be a couple of drunken hobos who might find what he had to say amusing.

Unless it is read into the Congressional Record, it does not exist. Every time we are all getting impatient -- well, there is a reason it only gets into the Record.

Old Louis Gohmert read all of the allegations about the Pakistani IT family into the record back in March. Hearings about various things, like free speech restrictions, global climate change, unmasking, leaks, Benghazi (where we learned about secret emails), IRS stalking (where we learned about other secret emails and directives), and all the other stupid and nasty things the Government does to the taxpayers on our dime still have to be put into the formal Record somehow.

The commie cocksuckers all scream about Pinochet, but he only whacked about 3000 miscreants during his 17 years in power. About 2/3rds of the executions were in the first 3-4 months of his regime.

326 About the NSC, the "reporting" and rumor-mongering about personnel stuff there (mostly) doesn't really give us much to go on (unless someone is personally familiar with the people in question. We don't know if people being let go did something stupid, making their dismissal reasonable. These little capsule descriptions of these (so far) fairly obscure junior people as "Trump loyalists" etc may be incorrect, or irrelevant to the situation.

There is also a consistent oversight/distortion in all these reports - they fail to note that most NSC staff are career people on rotation from outside agencies, and it has ever been thus. So talk of "Obama holdovers" is literally meaningless, at best, unless one breaks down the career staff vs. political appointees (usually "senior directors", one of the lamer Beltway titles for which the NSC is well known).

I'll bet she and her husband made out like bandits during the Obama presidency. She could easily afford plastic surgery. She needs no sympathy.

There are well known surgical techniques that can fix everything that's wrong with her face. Her soul on the other hand ...

Power's big problem, looks-wise, is that she didn't bother to groom herself at all. No makeup, no hairstyling, dressed like a retail clerk in a used record store etc.

I'd bet money that she reeks of BO as well. Not being mean about it (well, maybe a bit), but those hippie types aren't much on the personal hygiene thing. Even the rich ones. Like soap and deodorant are bourgeois indulgences.

365 We know that Powers excessively unmasked classified documents. If a prosecutor can tie one of these documents to a leak to MSM he has the start of a felony case with real jail time. I'd bet that she gave them to someone like Ben Rhodes who was the point on running the Obama Echo Chamber.

These can be easy cases to make if you can prove the basic facts. As I've been saying it's like catching Big Pussy with heroin. Easy case. Big jail time. Flip 'end to rat on Tony Soprano.

388 BSG - that sounds about right.

So, minus the idiotic NPR-level mindset and lack of worldliness, a problem similar to that of most Obama-era people.

I can imagine this is a common problem with some of the Trump appointees, since this administration is - as people have been saying today - the first "independent" one in our history. So, lots of fresh faces, but a bit too fresh, in a "seasoning" sense.

Then again, you could have older, more experienced, and outlandishly unfit people, as under Obama (and before that, Clinton). Despite everything, I remain floored at a couple of very very very senior appointees of the last 8 years, having extensive direct personal knowledge of their capabilities.

I think the previous admin did everything it could to lay the groundwork to make exactly that, possible.

Question is, can the present admin now slam enough doors shut, quickly enough, to have a chance in the prevention of an occurrence?

In my perfect world, every member of the previous admin, really, with no exceptions whom I can think of, needs to be waterboarded to extract the full range of facts as to what they did, and with whom they did it, and further, to nail down to whom they passed critical information along.

Roll 'em all up, processes 'em and park 'em at Gitmo for however long.

And I'd suggest C-17 Globemasters for the Pinochet'ing of 'em, after.

Speed and range, get 'em all a couple thousand miles out over the Atlantic for the ceremonies. No need to sully our shores with the washing up of their bloated carcasses.

Can you tell I really don't like the previous admin? 'Cause I really, really don't like the previous admin.

434 No "nuclear event" in an American city needed to gauge the damage done the last few years. Well, there's a rich buffet from which to choose, but the starkest one is probably Iran, which is sort of bound up with the Iraq question, though it preceded it, and is separate.

Iran is the most capable, and most dangerous, adversary whose ambitions intersect our interests (each word chosen carefully). Obviously far from the most powerful (Russia, China) - but again, words chosen carefully.

Bush got an A+ on building/maintaining - against all the gravity the world has to offer in terms of overcoming the behavior of irresponsible self-seeking players - a fairly effective sanctions/isolation regime against Iran. Recall sanctions are usually more valuable for their political impact and the way they organize a coalition than for their specific, material impact on a target. And he built on a base that included useful things done - hard to believe - in the Clinton years.

All that was literally just thrown away. Most potentially costly, 100% elective foreign policy blunder in our history. Was not a judgement call with competing considerations or inscrutable elements. Pure vandalism.

It's actually nothing short of remarkable how few people he had to have killed. Talk about slicing with a fine knife.

449 Every rational President should take to heart the fact that eventually a Democrat President will get elected and his primary mission will be to reverse EVERY previous advance made that even appeared to further American interests and ideals!

Their is no loyalty to the country why would there be any loyalty to allies from election to election

He is a Globalist, just like his Pappy and brothers. He does love this Country, but a more equal Global citizen was the long term goal. When you view him through this lens, everything he did makes perfect sense.

460 Circa, no, I was talking about one very specific and important thing, not all the things. And I must have lived through an alternative Bearded Spock post-9/11 America, as I recall lots of very aggressive action and results, over the whining and back-stabbing of those who we are supposed to be happy lost last Nov. 8.

But as I said to JJ earlier today, I don't attempt to comment at Zero Hedge or DailyKos, which this place effectively is on certain topics. So, second time I've screwed up today. My bad.

467 Love this quote:

"We slowly drove past 4th Infantry guys looking mean and ugly," recalled Sgt. Kayla Williams, then a military intelligence specialist in the 101st Airborne. "They stood on top of their trucks, their weapons pointed directly at civilians. . . . What could these locals possibly have done? Why was this intimidation necessary? No one explained anything, but it looked weird and felt wrong."

472 No, I'm not Zero Hedge or Kos.

It's not that Bush was inert nor do I think that he had willfully bad intent, it was that we fell into the same trap that we've done since Korea. We didn't fight either Afghanistan or Iraq correctly and we're still paying for it. I've been 100% consistent on these points on this blog since 2004.

Go figure.

I heard this story on the radio...Some women shaved her neighbors kid's head, then wrote "Herbert" on his forehead.

Then it was explained he had pulled her daughter's hair and touched her inappropriately.

OK, then it dawned on me she didn't write Herbert, it was Pervert. My middle age hearing isn't the best. LOL
