Unmasked: Multiple Sources Claim This Obama Administration Official Requested the Names of Trump Campaign StaffersRice has yet to respond to the latest allegations. However, she's already on record as saying she didn't know anything about the intercepts during an interview with PBS News Hour's Judy Woodruff immediately following Nunes' bombshell announcement. [Charisma News] According to multiple news reports Monday, President Barack Obama's national security adviser, Susan Rice, was responsible for "unmasking" the identities of then-candidate Donald Trump's staffers in intelligence intercepts that were later leaked for political purposes to discredit the new president's administration. (Photo via Medium.com) Investigative journalist Mike Cernovich broke the story over the weekend with a bombshell report that states the Office of White House Counsel became aware of her actions and immediately notified House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA). He immediately pointed the finger at Rice, and noted that at least one liberal mainstream reporter had been "sitting" on the story for 48 hours in an effort to protect the reputation of President Obama.

That report was backed up Monday morning by Bloomberg's Eli Lake, who reported: The pattern of Rice's requests was discovered in a National Security Council review of the government's policy on "unmasking" the identities of individuals in the U.S. who are not targets of electronic eavesdropping, but whose communications are collected incidentally. Normally those names are redacted from summaries of monitored conversations and appear in reports as something like "U.S. Person One." The National Security Council's senior director for intelligence, Ezra Cohen-Watnick, was conducting the review, according to two U.S. officials who spoke with Bloomberg View on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss it publicly. In February Cohen-Watnick discovered Rice's multiple requests to unmask U.S. persons in intelligence reports that related to Trump transition activities. He brought this to the attention of the White House General Counsel's office, who reviewed more of Rice's requests and instructed him to end his own research into the unmasking policy.

One U.S. official familiar with the reports said they contained valuable political information on the Trump transition such as whom the Trump team was meeting, the views of Trump associates on foreign policy matters and plans for the incoming administration.

However, she's already on record as saying she didn't know anything about the intercepts during an interview with PBS News Hour's Judy Woodruff immediately following Nunes' bombshell announcement. There are only two logical possibilities following these statements: 1. Rice is lying about her knowledge of the surveillance, or Neither one of those options is very good news for her or for other members of the Obama administration's national security team. As former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova pointed out in an interview with WMAL-AM on Monday morning, it's time for Rice and several of her colleagues to "lawyer up." Listen to his entire interview here. Here's what we still don't know: Who:
