| Samantha Power Sought to Unmask Americans on an ‘Almost Daily Basis' |
| 2017-09-21 |
| [Free Beacon] Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power "unmasked" some 260 people in 2016, including in the lead-up to President Donald Trump's inauguration, according to a new report. Most of Power's unmasking happened in the final months of former President Barack Obama's administration, Fox News reports. And you were providing the names of the unmasked to whom again Ms. Poser ? "Unmasking" refers to the process of revealing the names of individuals which are otherwise obscured but incidentally collected in intelligence reports. Some have suggested that Power, along with former National Security Adviser Susan Rice, may have misused the unmasking procedure, including by unmasking Trump campaign associates in the lead-up to the 2016 election. In July, Rep. Devin Nunes (R., Calif.), the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, wrote to Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats to inform him that the committee had learned "that one official, whose position had no apparent intelligence-related function, made hundreds of unmasking requests during the final year of the Obama Administration." That official is likely to be Power. Power, who served as U.N. ambassador from 2013 to 2017 during the Obama administration, did not respond to a request for comment from Fox. However, a previous statement from her lawyer noted that "while serving as our Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Power was also a member of the National Security Council responsible for advising the President on the full-range of threats confronting the United States. Any insinuation that Ambassador Power was involved in leaking classified information is absolutely false." |

| #7 Start with Obama and work your way down through his gestapo and brown-shirts and if you run out of rope there's always a cliff or building around. |

| #5 She has betrayed the american people and the public trust. At this point jail is too good for her. I think a public hanging would be a great option. |
