[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, these key words in the NSA memo released today aren’t getting enough attention:

“Each individual was an authorized recipient of the original report & THE UNMASKING WAS APPROVED THROUGH NSA’S STANDARD PROCESS, WHICH INCLUDES A REVIEW OF THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE REQUEST.”[/quote]

This is standard practice and happens all the time. If there is intelligence that someone in a position of influence is having secret talks with the Russian ambassador and other foreign government officials, the people in need-to-know positions ask who it is. If the approval process determines that the request is from a need-to-know person, that person gets the name.

[b]Unmasking doesn't mean the name was made public or shared outside the need-to-know national security people, but Trump lovers are too stupid to understand that.[/b]

Flynn made everything worse for himself, after the calls to the ambassador, when he lied to Pence and the FBI about them. Once Pence publicly repeated Flynn's lie about he discussed, Flynn was open to blackmail by the Russians who could threaten to expose his lie. That made him a national security threat.

The argument within DOJ was not whether to investigate Flynn, but whether it should be primarily a counterintelligence investigation or a criminal investigation. No one disputed that he lied to the FBI and the VP and that it should be investigated. Barr is lying again and misrepresenting the internal FBI deliberations about the Flynn case.[/quote]

Of course it doesn't necessarily mean that....but in this case, it was shared/made public.

No. Unmasking never means leaking.  You are misusing the word.[/quote]
