#4 The article strikes me as a load of self-aggrandizing crap. Basically, she is a leftist who was a part of the Obama regime and a danger to the Republic and its freedoms.

The New York Post stated on 9/20/17: Samantha Power, who was the US Ambassador to the UN under former President Barack Obama, averaged more than one “unmasking” request for every working day in 2016 — even going so far as to seek the names of Trump associates just before his inauguration, a report says.

#5 Remember when she was exposed for unmasking all those US Citizens in an abuse of power? Fock her:

News reports are surfacing that former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Samantha Power unmasked the identities of American citizens on an “almost daily basis,” revealing the possibility that Power alone may have violated the constitutional rights of hundreds of American citizens.

Her reported actions should not come as much of a surprise to those who followed the Obama administration’s eight years in power, which was rife with executive abuses of authority.

#8 It was the Liar Samatha Powers that told everyone Benghazi was caused by a video. Painting a giant target on an american citizen.

#9 This woman's feckless rants against Russia represent the ultimate in virtue signaling. Useless, hypocritical, absurd.

#10 It was the Liar Samatha Powers that told everyone Benghazi was caused by a video.

#13 "Well honey, that was *after* I condemned America for not responding strongly enough to genocide in the 20th Century, but *before* I sat on my hands while Bashar Assad committed genocide in the 21st Century. We Democrats call that 'nuance.'"
