JOHN SOLOMON: “And unmaskings. And we had just gone on television, on Sean’s show – Sean Hannity’s show – that night, we talked about this sudden rise in unmaskings. And I came- I drove home, I got to my mailbox, pulled up my car, and…”
SARA CARTER: “It was- it was huge.”

SARA CARTER: “Oh. Was that… 2017?”
JOHN SOLOMON: “March 2017.”

On March 28, 2017, Circa published the article “Obama’s rule changes opened door for NSA intercepts of Americans to reach political hands”.
On April 3, 2017, Circa published the article “White House logs indicate Susan Rice consumed unmasked intel on Trump associates”.
On June 27, 2017, Circa published the article “Did the FBI retaliate against Michael Flynn by launching a Russia probe?”
“Three FBI employees told Circa they personally witnessed McCabe make disparaging remarks about Flynn before and during the time the retired Army general emerged as a figure in the Russia case.”
The Inspection Division received a complaint on March 15, 2017, although it looks as if the division was made aware on February 21, 2017, about “a media leak involving a statement overheard in early February 2017”.
Now, the actual unmasking scandal was discovered in March 2017 during a National Security Council review by lawyers for the White House, which was apparently conducted by Ezra Cohen-Watnick.
On March 15, 2017, Representative Schiff and Representative Nunes sent a letter to Director Comey, Director Rogers and Director Pompeo to request information on leaks of classified information and potential unmaskings of Americans.
In the evening of March 21, 2017, Nunes received a telephone call while in an Uber, which led to him travelling to the White House.
During March 21’s evening, Nunes apparently met Ezra Cohen-Watnick and Michael Ellis on the grounds of the White House, where Nunes may have viewed the computer systems in the National Security Council to access documents.
On March 22, Nunes met with Speaker Ryan to discuss the surveillance operations conducted by intelligence agencies on Trump and his transition team, then contacted Directors Pompeo and Rogers about it.
Nunes then hosted his press conference at the US Capitol where he said he had seen evidence of communications between President Trump and his transition team were incidentally collected during surveillance operations of foreign targets and then unmasked.
Nunes then visited the White House to inform President Trump of the intelligence he received about the actions of intelligence agencies on Trump and his transition team. The NSA was being cooperative. The FBI was not.

On April 2, 2017, Mike Cernovich published the article “Susan Rice Requested Unmasking of Incoming Trump Administration Officials” in Medium.
This was followed on April 3, 2017 with The Wall Street Journal’s article, “Susan Rice Unmasked”.
This forced Susan Rice to be interviewed on April 4, 2017 by Andrea Mitchell on “Andrea Mitchell Reports”, where she denied improperly unmasking members of the Trump transition team.
Between April 3 – 10, 2017, employees and members of the House Intelligence Committee and the Senate Intelligence Committee reviewed the same reports provided to Nunes at the NSA’s Headquarters.
On May 8, 2017, Peter Strzok texted:
“FUCK! Clapper and Yates through Graham questions are all playing into the ‘there should be an unmasking request / record’ for incidental collection incorrect narrative.”
On September 6, 2017, Susan Rice testified before investigators at the House Intelligence Committee, which led to Manu Raju’s exclusive for CNN, “Exclusive: Rice told House investigators why she unmasked senior Trump officials” on September 13, 2017.
Rice said she had unmasked a meeting on December 15, 2016 between the Trump transition team [Flynn, Kushner, Bannon] when they met with Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahyan and George Nader at Trump Tower in New York.
“In February, Cohen-Watnick discovered Rice’s multiple requests to unmask U.S. persons in intelligence reports that related to Trump transition activities.”
“… and accelerated after Trump’s election in November launched a transition that continued through January.”
“Most if not all had nothing to do with the Russian election interference scandal, the sources said, speaking only on the condition of anonymity given the sensitive nature of the materials.”
“Ted Kontek: He saw much of the ‘wiretap’ material and says none of the transcripts point to a conspiracy. ‘There is nothing like that,’ he told me. ‘And nor would you expect there to be.”
“American law enforcement and intelligence agencies intercepted the communications around the same time they were discovering evidence that Russia was trying to disrupt the presidential election by hacking into the DNC.”
