Three of the nation’s intelligence agencies received subpoenas Wednesday afternoon issued by the House Intelligence Committee, Fox News has confirmed, with each of the three demands for documents explicitly naming three top officials of the Obama administration: Susan Rice, who served as President Obama’s White House national security adviser; former CIA Director John Brennan; and former U.N. ambassador Samantha Power.
The three subpoenas, among a total of seven signed by panel chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), were served on the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the National Security Agency, and all three explicitly referenced “unmasking” – a signal that the House panel is intensifying its investigation into allegations that Obama-era aides improperly demanded the “unmasking” of names of associates of President Trump that had appeared, in coded form, in classified intelligence reports, then leaked the data to news media organizations.

The sad thing is these Congressman will huff and puff in these committee hearings and unless the Justice Department does something, nothing will come of this!
It’s about time they investigate these leaks and alleged spying done by the Obama Administration!
The net is being cast wider and wider plus with a new AG at the helm there may be some real action. These agencies are subject to Congressional oversight and to hem and haw as Comey did casts them in a very bad light. It is onlt the beginning!
With all the “investigations” leading to NO CONSEQUENCES for the CRIMINAL Commucrats, I have grown cynical, and don’t expect THIS one to lead anywhere, EITHER. But I applaud the Justice Dept. for having the good sense to at least TRY to shed some light on the sins of the COMMUCRATS while they are doing their hypocritical little dance all over the media about Trump’s “Russian connection!” I hope that Congress will cooperate with a REAL investigation this time, and not just something for “show.”
The TRUTH is that there are PROVEN “Russian connections” between NUMEROUS highly-placed Commucrats and the Russians, and so far, ZERO EVIDENCE has been presented against Trump or ANY of his campaign staff. It is ALSO past time that a BRIGHT LIGHT was turned on the MASSIVE illegal surveillance of American citizens that Obama conducted, and the way he and everybody in his administration played fast and loose with the data they collected in an election year to sabotage their political opponents. That is WAY more serious than any alleged “Russian connection”, and it’s high time their efforts to DEFLECT from what THEY have done with this “Russian” BS were countermanded with the TRUTH about what they did and who they did it to!
Exactly. These subpoena’s are as toothless as a 90 yr old hooker..
