The redacted part of the Susan Rice memo-to-self was declassified on Tuesday. The Gateway Pundit<\/a> posted an article yesterday that includes a picture of the entire memo including the redacted version.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Acting DNI Richard Grenell on Tuesday declassified the remaining portion of Susan Rice\u2019s email.<\/strong><\/p>\n

CBS reporter Catherine Herridge obtained the declassified email and released it to the public<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was previously known the junk Russia dossier and General Flynn\u2019s calls to Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak were discussed in the secret meeting.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The newly declassified portion of the email once again implicates Barack Obama and Comey!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Barack Obama and Comey discussed Flynn\u2019s communications with Kislyak.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Comey suggested to Obama in the meeting that the National Security Council [NSC] might not want to pass \u201csensitive information related to Russia\u201d to then-incoming National Security Adviser General Mike Flynn.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Obama asked if Comey was saying that the NSC should not pass sensitive information related to Russia to Flynn. Comey replied \u201cpotentially\u201d and noted \u201cthe level of communication (w\/Russian Ambassador) is unusual.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Andrew McCarthy posted an article about the memo at The National Review<\/a> today.<\/p>\n

Andrew McCarthy notes:<\/p>\n

Try not to get dizzy. Rice has gone from claiming to have had no knowledge<\/a> of Obama administration monitoring of Flynn and other Trump associates, to claiming no knowledge<\/a> of any unmaskings of Trump associates, to admitting she was complicit<\/a> in the unmaskings, to \u2014 now \u2014 a call for the recorded conversation between retired general Michael Flynn and Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak to be released because it would purportedly show that the Obama administration had good reason to be concerned about Flynn (y\u2019know, the guy she said she had no idea they were investigating).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Naturally, we have now learned that Rice was deeply involved in the Obama administration\u2019s Trump\u2013Russia investigation, including its sub-investigation of Flynn, a top Trump campaign surrogate who was slated to replace Rice as national-security advisor when President Trump took office. Last night, I did a column<\/a> for Fox News, analyzing the newly unredacted paragraph from Rice\u2019s previously reported email memorializing a White House meeting on these subjects.<\/strong><\/p>\n
