It is a variation of the "No True Scotsman" logic fallacy.. and not even a clever one at that.

the surveillance scandal is starting to close in on Obama.
Susan Rice, Obama's National Security Adviser is the White House official that was reading the raw intelligence spying reports on the Trump transition team AND asking for the names of U.S. citizens to be unmasked so she could identify them: Quote:

Was Susan Rice doing this on her own? did she keep Obama in the dark? unlikely. Rice would most likely have told Obama exactly what she knew and did this on his orders or with her blessing. This is political espionage pure and simple.

"...according to two U.S. officials who spoke with Bloomberg View on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss it publicly...."
Then this is little better than hearsay.

You're right. Time will tell I guess. On the other hand if true it's pretty explosive news.

I am glad they are investigating this.

I'm waiting for the Russians to bring up how much meddling we've done to their political system over the years.

If, and that is still a yuge if, the Russians interfered with our election, I wonder what law did they violate?
Spreading information/disinformation, even if it is the truth, may be a cruddy thing for them to do, but is it illegal?

It appears that president Trump had donated his first quarter's presidential pay to the National Park Service.
http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/04/0...t-quarter-2017 Good for him! He said he was not going to accept his pay, and it looks like he is following through with it. I was not aware it was legal to donate it to any specific agency other than The Bureau of the Fiscal Service.

If not there is tomorrows headline. Then again it might be a little awkward to spin him into a monster for donating his pay to a good cause.
