That's ... a lotta unmasking. The fact that Samantha Power is at the heart of the "unmasking" investigation in the House barely qualifies as news at this point, as her name has been floating around in connection with it for months. In fact, Trey Gowdy quizzed John Brennan about the mysterious ambassador and her strange unmasking requests at a House hearing all the way back on May 23. By mid-July the Free Beacon's sources had identified her as a "central figure" in the probe. Note this quote from that piece:
"Unmasking is not a regular occurrence - absolutely not a weekly habit. It is rare, even at the National Security Council, and ought to be rarer still for a U.N. ambassador," according to one former senior U.S. official who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon.
Well, it wasn't a weekly habit for Power, if Fox's sources are to be believed. It was a daily habit:
Samantha Power, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, was "unmasking" at such a rapid pace in the final months of the Obama administration that she averaged more than one request for every working day in 2016 - and even sought information in the days leading up to President Trump's inauguration, multiple sources close to the matter told Fox News.
Two sources, who were not authorized to speak on the record, said the requests to identify Americans whose names surfaced in foreign intelligence reporting, known as unmasking, exceeded 260 last year. One source indicated this occurred in the final days of the Obama White House. ...
Why? That's easy to answer ... so she could pass the information along to Democrat Party operatives ... and that, boys and girls of the Pffffartbubbler sandbox, is a F.E.L.O.N.Y. This lawless bitch ... and her fellow bitch in crime, Susan Rice ... desperately need to be prosecuted and thrown in jail.
