Samantha Power Claims Someone Else Made Unmasking Requests In Her Name

Nah nothing to see here. Just move along.

"Someone within the Obama administration’s intelligence apparatus made requests to unmask the identity of Americans named in intelligence reports on behalf of Samantha Power, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.

That’s what Power told the House Intelligence Committee last week during a closed-door interview.

South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy revealed in an interview on Fox News on Tuesday that Power was “emphatic” on the point that someone else in the Obama administration made the unmasking requests that have been attributed to her."

At least you admit it this time.

Oh hey, Okrahoma is lying about what Trey Gowdy claims to have heard. This is worth my time.

Alice: Hey Bob, I heard you wrote an article in the Times.
Bob: No, I didn’t. Charlie wrote that.
Okrahoma: BOB CLAIMS HIS NAME WAS FORGED ON AN ARTICLE

The Hill

Oh, that paragon of integrity.

So it was Power who made the requests?

I’m taking you at your word and not bothering to read the rest.

You’re lying about my post. Everything in it (including the title) is directly from the article cited.

Unmask. Is that still, or again, a meme talking point for Republicans to be outraged about? My mistake, I thought it was a passing fad. So 2016.

Not so fast! Folks, Okrahoma is claiming that DailyCaller is claiming that Fox News is claiming that Trey Gowdy is claiming that Samantha Powers is claiming that someone unknown is claiming to be Samantha Powers asking for unmasking.

STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES!

The “money quote” (five cents? ten?) is:

Meanwhile, our president is pissing off war widows and getting in pissing contests with everybody within pee range, but STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES!

Y’all (I never get to use y’all, it’s fun) can stop reporting the posts. This isn’t GD. However I am going to step in and say the accusations of lying are heading into thread derailing territory. Either comment on the content of the thread or stay out. Thanks y’all.

The term didn’t really get much notice on Google (in the USA) until April 2017.
