The gig is up, the truth is beginning to bubble near the surface, and the idiots are scrambling in all directions trying to put out fires they can't even figure out if they are burning yet, or not. If it wasn't so serious, it would be comical

"Nothing here to see. Move along. Move along. Nothing to see here."The Trump administration keeps piling up the crap they are discovering, things the GOP establishment have been too afraid to unveil in the past, and the latest heap of garbage at the top is news that the Obama Administration's National Security Adviser, Susan Rice, directed the "unmasking" of NSA intercepts of Trump associates. The media is in a quandry. What to do? What to do? CNN, in panic mode, racing to try and pull a magicians trick of making the blockbuster report disappear. "Nothing here to see. Move along. Move along. Nothing to see here." CNN Tonight's Don Lemon went so far as to announce he would ignore the news at all costs. It's like the child with their fingers in their ears screaming, "Na, na, na, na, I can't hear you, I can't hear you!" Chris Cuomo claimed it was "demonstrably untrue" Rice sought surveillance of the Trump team, even as that's exactly what reports prove. The experts ("ex" is a has-been, and a "spurt" is a drip) have been lined up since the revealing of the news about Rice so as to put out the fire quickly. CNN's chief national security correspondent, Jim Sciutto, was even called in to try and dismiss the reports as a non-story. Sciutto even excused Rice claiming ignorance of the unmasking scandal two weeks ago, arguing Rice "wasn't aware" what unmasking Rep. Devin Nunes (D-Calif.) was referring to. Hence, the reason they have been attacking Nunes, and have been trying to get him to recuse himself...It turns out he was on to something. Panic-mode. The collaborators, liars and deceivers have been caught. And their main crime was narcissism. They truly believed they could get away with anything.
CAMEROTA: "Okay, senator, I want to move on to other news of the day and that is, as you know, the Trump White House has talked about what they see or they say they see as a controversy of the former national security adviser Susan Rice unmasking a name, someone on team Trump, that was somehow caught up in some incidental collection of surveillance. They say that this is a controversy, it shows that she has done something wildly out of the bounds of normalcy. Is this business as usual for a national security adviser to ask for a name to be revealed, an American name, if she wants to know more or is this some sort of a controversy?" McCAIN: "I think the circumstances indicate that there's a possibility that that request could have been politically motivated. But we need to get to the bottom of it. As I've said, and I'll probably say many more times because I'm kind of boring, this is a centipede. A shoe will drop every few days, the latest the meeting in Seychelles. This is a requirement, in my view, why we need a select committee in order to get through all this because there's lots more shoes that will drop. I can't make a judgment on what I just heard. She did have the authority to do it. What was the motivation for doing it, I think is the question." CAMEROTA: "What we've heard from the reporting, is that if she saw a masked name that said American number one had these conversations with Russians at the same time that President Obama had imposed sanctions, wouldn't that arouse some curiosity on her part?" McCAIN: "All I can say, Alisyn, is that I don't know enough to reach a conclusion except to say this is another aspect of this multi-dimensional scandal."The gig is up, the truth is beginning to bubble near the surface, and the idiots are scrambling in all directions trying to put out fires they can't even figure out if they are burning yet, or not. If it wasn't so serious, it would be comical.
