We have the evidence. Evidence of the only confirmed crime: Flynn's name was unmasked and leaked. Comey confirmed that. There is an individual or a group that is leaking information from wiretaps that are supposed to be protected by FISA safeguards. That's not a conspiracy theory, those are the facts, verified by the FBI director under oath.
Nonsense, it was Russian ambassador that was wiretapped, not Flynn. As far as the source of leak? Could have been Trump's administration themselves (like for example Pence) as
they received the briefing on Flynn lying 2 weeks before it became public.
For the Trump administration to even know about it, it had to have been leaked from the NSA/FBI,
that is the felony. Using the excuse that "the ambassador was being wiretapped" isn't an excuse.
You are a ******* idiot making nonsense up, FBI gives regular briefings to Trump and members of administration to APPROPRIATELY share with them information they have.
I'm making this up? Yesterday Comey made it quite clear that any American identified in a foreign wiretap falls under FISA, and only 20 people in the NSA have the authority to "unmask" the names of such US citizens. No one else has access to those names. The President has no authority to see such names. Comey testified that Flynn's name leak is a felony, and that it had to be committed from within the intel community.
Now get lost, you're just making yourself look like an unhinged lunatic that doesn't have a clue about what is really going on.
QUOTE HIM.
Trump's administration members knew Flynn lied, I don't see how it is at all possible to know who exactly leaked.
And lets not lose track of what is going on here, administration KNOWS for 2 weeks that Flynn was lying about Russians, KNEW that he let Pence make a total fool of himself when he went out and defended Flynn and DID NOTHING until story went public.
And what are you ******* treasonous assholes are concerned about? Someone letting the world know what a piece of shit Flynn is.
The leaks happened during Obama's term.
Here is the transcript. 20 people in the NSA have access.
There are also many in the FBI with access, and political appointees (Obamaphiles) had access:
ROONEY: Who normally in the NSA would make the decision to unmask?
ROGERS: There are 20 individuals including myself who I have delegated this authority to approve unmask requests.
....
GOWDY: Admiral Rogers said there are 20 people within the NSA that are part of the unmasking process. How many people within the FBI are part of the unmasking process?
COMEY: I don't know for sure. As I sit here, surely more, given the nature the FBI's work. We come into contact with U.S. persons a whole lot more than the NSA does because we may be conducting -- we only conduct our operations in the United States to collect electronic surveillance -- to conduct electronic surveillance, so I don't -- I can find out the exact number, I don't know it as I sit here.
....
GOWDY: All right, so that's four. The NSA, FBI, CIA, Main Justice. Does the White House have the authority to unmask a U.S. citizen's name?
COMEY: I think other elements of the government that are consumers of our products can ask the collectors to unmask. The unmasking resides with those who collected the information. And so if Mike Rogers's folks collected something and they sent it to me in a report and it says U.S. person number one and it's important for the FBI to know who that is, our request will go back to them. The
White House can make similar requests of the FBI or of NSA but they can't on their -- they don't own their own collect and so
they can't on their own unmask. I got that about right?
ROGERS: No, that's correct.
COMEY: Yeah.
...
GOWDY: Would
Director Brennan have
access to an unmasked U.S. citizen's name?
COMEY: In some circumstances,
yes.
GOWDY: Would National Security Adviser
Susan Rice have access to an unmasked U.S. citizen's name?
COMEY: I think any --
yes, in general, and any other national security adviser would, I think, as a matter of their ordinary course of their business.
GOWDY: Would former White House Advisor Ben Rhodes have access to an unmasked U.S. citizen's name?
COMEY: I don't know the answer to that.
GOWDY: Would former Attorney General
Loretta Lynch have access to an unmasked U.S. citizen's name?
COMEY: In general,
yes, as would any attorney general.
GOWDY: So that would also include Acting AG
Sally Yates?
COMEY:
Same answer.
GOWDY: Did you brief President Obama on -- well, I'll just ask you. Did you brief President Obama on any calls involving Michael Flynn?
COMEY: I'm not gonna get into either that particular case that matter, or any conversations I had with the president.
So I can't answer that.

There you have it. The only people that had access to Flynn's name were intell people during the Obama regime, as well as Obama political appointees, many of whom we already know are corrupt pieces of shit (Lynch, Yates).
