Michael Daniel confirmed Wednesday that former national security adviser Susan Rice ordered him and his staff to “stand down” in 2016 in regard to Russian attempts to meddle in the 2016 election.
Daniel, special assistant to former President Barack Obama and White House cybersecurity coordinator, told members of the Senate Intelligence Committee that quotes attributed to him in the book, Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin’s War on America and the Election of Donald Trump, were an “accurate rendering of the conversation” he had with Rice and his staff.
Daniel’s staff reportedly responded to the order in “disbelief.”
I would imagine so.
What Pelosi was saying about the mess when Obama was still in office.
Among the reasons I despise McCain:
In the full notes of an April 30 meeting, McCain’s high-ranking staffer Kerner recommends harassing non-profit groups until they are unable to continue operating. Kerner tells Lerner, Steve Miller, then chief of staff to IRS commissioner, Nikole Flax, and other IRS officials, “Maybe the solution is to audit so many that it is financially ruinous.” In response, Lerner responded that “it is her job to oversee it all:”
Henry Kerner asked how to get to the
abuse of organizations claiming section 501 (c)(4) but designed to be
primarily political. Lois Lerner said the system works, but not in real
time. Henry Kerner noted that these organizations don’t disclose donors.
Lois Lerner said that if they don’t meet the requirements, we can come
in and revoke, but it doesn’t happen timely. Nan Marks said if the
concern is that organizations engaging in this activity don’t disclose
donors, then the system doesn’t work. Henry Kerner said that maybe the
solution is to audit so many that it is financially ruinous. Nikole
noted that we have budget constraints. Elise Bean suggested using the
list of organizations that made independent expenditures. Lois Lerner
said that it is her job to oversee it all, not just political campaign
activity.
Judicial Watch previously reported on the 2013 meeting. Senator McCain then issued a statement decrying “false reports claiming that his office was somehow involved in IRS targeting of conservative groups.” The IRS previously blacked out the notes of the meeting but Judicial Watch found the notes among subsequent documents released by the agency.
Even after 9/11, Arizona should've gone ahead and recalled this corrupt bastard.
And let's not forget the previously noted 'FBI agents lying under oath, and taking bribes from journalists, and leaking classified information'.

Yep - ya gotta wonder what they are deflecting attention away from or what they are trying to cover up (or both).
