Two weeks later, where are we with this? Ryan Lizza of the New Yorker has a good summary of what came of that "bombshell" the right wing hoped it had, in the form of a binder of documents "discovered" by Nunes: ============= The binder of secret documents is at the center of the bizarre scandal created by what may be the most reckless lie President Trump has ever told. On March 4th, he tweeted, “Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!” The White House made several efforts to justify Trump’s claim, including using Devin Nunes, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, as a conduit for the documents, which allegedly offered some substantiation. A former Nunes staffer now working for the White House dug up the transcripts and shared them with Nunes. As Bloomberg View reported, earlier this month, Susan Rice, Obama’s national-security adviser, had used a process that allowed her to request that the masked names be revealed to her. Rice had to log her unmasking requests on a White House computer, which is how Trump’s aides knew about them. Nunes and the White House presented this as a major scandal. “I think the Susan Rice thing is a massive story,” Trump told the Times, adding, while offering no evidence, that Rice may have committed a crime. It is now clear that the scandal was not Rice’s normal review of the intelligence reports but the coördinated effort between the Trump Administration and Nunes to sift through classified information and computer logs that recorded Rice’s unmasking requests, and then leak a highly misleading characterization of those documents, all in an apparent effort to turn Rice, a longtime target of Republicans, into the face of alleged spying against Trump. It was a series of lies to manufacture a fake scandal. Last week, CNN was the first to report that both Democrats and Republicans who reviewed the Nunes material at the N.S.A. said that the documents provided “no evidence that Obama Administration officials did anything unusual or illegal.” ================ Trump once again shoots himself in the foot, then blames the gun.

Ryan Lizza of the New Yorker has a good summary of what came of that "bombshell" the right wing hoped it had, in the form of a binder of documents "discovered" by Nunes: The problem is, at this point it just doesn't matter. In six months everyone on the right and half the people in the centre will still remeber the accusation - and the perfectly reasonable, normal and valid explanation for her actions will be half remembered as a semantic excuse at best. By any measure of logic, fact or truth the Trump team have had their asses handed to them. In the court of public opinion they've probably come out evens at worst.Do you want to have an ideagasm?
