QuoteThe federal prosecutor Attorney General Bill Barr tapped to investigate whether Obama administration officials improperly requested the unmasking of individuals during the 2016 election has concluded his probe without "finding any substantive wrongdoing," The Washington Post reported Tuesday.
Barr appointed U.S. Attorney John Bash to review whether there was wrongdoing by the Obama administration in requesting the identities of individuals — in particular Trump allies — whose names are redacted in intelligence reports during the heated election.
The practice, known as unmasking, is common and done to help government officials make sense of the intelligence documents they are reviewing, but President Trump and his allies have alleged that Obama-era officials acted improperly in making a series of unmasking requests that ultimately led to former Trump campaign aide Michael Flynn's name being unmasked.
According to the Post, Bash and his team reviewed unmasking practices as well as whether officials at the time improperly leaked information to reporters. Bash reportedly turned over his findings to Barr, whose office chose not to publicly release them. The findings did not rise to the allegations Trump and his allies have made about wrongdoing, according to the report.

Will Trump fire Barr on twitter? Barr is such an anti-MAGA tool. He won't release the report? Why, it must be a conspiracy! What did the MAGA prophet Q tell us about the unmasking?
QuoteThe U.S. Justice Department has ended its probe into whether Obama administration officials improperly "unmasked" associates of now-President Donald Trump mentioned in intelligence reports, two congressional sources said on Wednesday.
It found no wrongdoing, one of the sources said.
Unmasking refers to the naming of U.S. citizens whose identities were blacked out in reports from the National Security Agency that captured their communications with a foreign national.
Trump and his allies have sought to portray the use of the process during the administration of his Democratic predecessor, President Barack Obama, as a misuse of government authority.
It is a routine practice, and Trump administration officials have made thousands of such requests, government statistics show.

Spin away. Unmasking is a nothingburger. Or was a "secret report" passed from Barr to Trump in prep for the "Q Storm"? :lol:

My understanding is this report is where the investigation is not that its over! the man quit his position and i believe it is just a status report! Time will tell if Barr appoints someone to finish the investigation! Last week their were rumors his next in command would.

All of this is fake news until we here it from Barr or Kupec.
I heard it on the radio this evening. My question is how in the world can there not be substantial wrongdoing?

Any prosecutor in this case would have a real problem proving intent! The people that did the unmasking had the power to do it and for it to be a crime you have to prove they were doing it for elicit reasons! Doesn't mean you can charge someone for it but someone in the chain of custody needs to roll over! What information they have found here could very well be used by John Durum as pieces of the puzzle he is putting together. Just because there is no indictment doesn't mean there isn't usable evidence and timelines to help the main probe!

The point with him is he's just screaming "arrest them" without knowing shit of what's going on. This is turning into a RICO thing, and Durham is piercing the veil of the SSCI connection with the media.

Acting US Attorney Gregg Sofer will pick up 'unmasking' probe: report
Acting US Attorney Gregg Sofer will take up the investigation into the "unmasking" of former national security adviser Michael Flynn after Sofer's predecessor resigned from the Justice Department, according to a report Tuesday.
Sofer was named by Attorney General William Barr to replace John Bash, the US attorney for the Western District of Texas, who announced Monday he is stepping down to take a job in the private sector.
"Without commenting on any specific investigation, any matters that John Bash was overseeing will be assumed by Gregg Sofer," a senior Justice Department official told Fox News.

The truth is that I never scream, never raise my voice and never get excited nor upset by what some nameless, faceless, idiot says/posts on the Internet to nor about me. I learned a long time ago that people will say or post anything. Sometimes they are trying to cover up, sometimes they believe themselves to be "clever", sometimes they are talking out of an abundance of ignorance and sometimes they are talking/posting to incite others to their dogpile. Whatever, I find that things are usually not what they seem so it is best not to get excited by anything that someone claims on the Internet.
Remember that bullies love to travel in packs rather than to stand up by themselves...

Just because I respond when dolts ASSUME nonsensical rubbish does not mean that "my panties were knotted". Since you don't know me you obviously think that everyone wears "panties" since you do, nothing could be further from the truth. "Called on it"? No, no one called me on anything! A couple of morons assumed that I was upset, assumed that I was like them and wore panties and assumed that the nonsense they were spewing "upset" me.
I will say it again, God has got this and I trust Him completely. That does not mean that I won't do my part, it merely means that I will trust Him with the outcome. There are numerous accounts in scripture where people did what was right and trusted God for the rest.

If you TRULY love Jesus, there is no way you could vote for a man that wants to keep and even expand the killing of God's children, namely babies.

The Canaanites that lived in Israel before the Jews moved in sacrificed their babies to Baal. The language literally says they, "Made their sons and daughters pass thru the fire"
Because of this, when God had the Jews invade Palistine and take it from the Canaanites, he told the israelites to kill every last one of them, even their animals, to wipe out every last trace of them for their abhorrent cruelty.
Deuteronomy
Quote16 However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Completely destroy them—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the Lord your God has commanded you. 18 Otherwise, they will teach you to follow all the detestable things they do in worshiping their gods, and you will sin against the Lord your God.
Quote34 And we captured all his cities at that time and devoted to destruction every city, men, women, and children. We left no survivors.
That is what we are now witnessing happening to the dem party/rino establishment and the deepstate globalists.
History repeats. God wins.
