Yates and Clapper Testimony Begins

I watched the hearing what a joke, they have nothing and while the temp Yates is pandering to the Democrats questions, Clapper can not keep from incriminating himself with what he knows but can not talk about it, I love when he told the panel that he is now a private citizen.

This people are a joke, Flynn is the connection I tell you, how dare he talk to Russian people, he is the connection or that is what the Democrats wants the public to think.

They still got nothing but speculations

What a joke.

Bring the unmasker, that piece of crap Rice is the one

The 702 they were talking about was conversations with foreign nationals. Incidental collection of trumps campaign aides or trump were unmasked.
The foreign national needs to be part of the equation. Otherwise no listening would have been occurring.

She was a temp, nothing more and an put in the position when she did not had the qualifications for, she started the whole crap against Flynn as per request, so Trump presidency would be tarnished.

I can not talk about, it, but I thought about it, but could not do anything about it" and blah blah blah

Clapper know who liked the information to the Washington post, he knows who knew what and when.

I didn't get a chance to see the hearings...
What did Donna Rice have to say???

Hopefully Rice is as available, forthright and honest as she has ALWAYS been...
Obamas cabinet was SOOOO honest and transparent..

Anyhow, y'all let me know when Rice is called to testify...can't wait...
She is a true, good and honest patriot...

Yates was acting like she was president. Dems should nominate her for 2020.

Man Cruz got schooled hard. I dont think he properly prepared his statements to go against a lawyer.

I don't get the dismissive attitude some have about Russian hacking. It's kind of a big deal.

Do you think it's remotely possible that the US has hacked other countries?

Do you think Russia is the only country that hacks the US?

And lastly, do you know that safeguards exist to prevent hacking in the first place?

It was a big deal because it showed the scummy side of the DNC. And in this case, all the facts that were revealed were in fact, "facts". So they didn't just post a bunch of lies, they revealed some really inconvenient stuff that upset the left.

If they posted lies, then I'm sure the attitude would be different. Like with France. (assuming those were all lies)

No, Hillary is coming back, didn't you heard, she already have a campaign group, and a theme, "Russians make me lose the elections I want to try again".



This for real she is coming back.

I have no idea....I saw it in media reports.....

I have no idea who unmasked an American citizen name....

I have no idea who leaked that information to the media.....

I would discuss it, but it's classified....

I would answer that, but it may still be under investigation.....

I will not attend your hearing for the American People to get answers.....(Susan Rice)


Clapper seems detached, twitchy, tired.

Of course he was. That's why Rice and Lynch refuse to testify. They would disclose Obamas corrupt surveillance program.

How do you figure?? She didn't even know the statue number she was fired for not enforcing....Just because she read some amended case law she prepared does not mean she schooled anyone... IMO she looked like narcissistic power hungry witch she is.....

They have made clear that nothing that Flynn said to the Russian ambassador was concerning.
The thing that was concerning was that he did not reveal that sanctions were discussed.
Since we never heard the actual recording, I still wonder what was actually said.
It could have been as simple as the ambassador bringing up sanctions, and Flynn saying that he was not going to discuss that now.

I wonder this more now that it seems like Yates was the source of the whole thing.
She is the one who made a big deal out of whatever Flynn said.
She even said the White House counsel asked her the next day why the DOJ would even be concerned about whatever happened.

This whole thing is beginning to look like a political hit job, with Yates as the source.
I bet she somehow was the source of the leaks, in spite of her denials.

That's what usually happens when you deal with a country that has nuke subs off the coast of New York, that also happens to be an enemy of the United States.

I wish all the Senators would try to remember this is supposed to be about Flynn and when the Administration was informed that he might be a security threat.

a reply to: BlueAjah

No unmasking of strictly U.S. citizens occurred because they don't listen to US citizens conversations. Any unmasking mentioned involved conversations being surveiled via FISA warrants and that is for foreign nationals only.

Wiki leaks is a platform for Russian propaganda:. James clapper

a reply to: Sillyolme

Clapper: still no collusion or crimes

a reply to: BlueAjah

I agree.

Flynn was a Democrat with extensive intelligence experience. Under Obama he had been given the highest security clearances. The Russian ambassador had conversations with a multitude of Washington politicians and political players. He had one with the man Trump had chosen to advise him on national security issues! Big deal!!

We have no...none...nada....details about any discussions he had with that ambassador.

This rhetoric about the Russians interfering in our elections is also confusing. IC says the Russians hacked the DNC system, then, through some operative, sent those emails from Podesta and others, and that embarrassed and exposed just how nasty the DNC operated.

So, truth exposed, influenced the American voters. hmmmmm.

Also, it is sooooo strange that when the FBI told the DNC that they were vulnerable, the DNC refused to allow the FBI access to their computers. Another hmmmmmm.
