And Rand Paul is correct it is a travesty and should never happen in America . Live free or die .

Rand Paul is a moron who seems to be preparing to audition for Dos Equis ads.

Identities are masked when a US person who is NOT the target of the surveillance is captured on the communication -- this is an "incidental communication." They are unmasked when the identity is necessary to understand the intelligence. All legal, no warrant required. In requesting an identity be "unmasked," you by definition don't know who it is so you can't be politically targeting a specific individual. And if the claim is that Flynn's role in the transition made his actions "legal," you are conceding that his identity is relevant.

So you get to be a doctor by being a moron . Good to know .
If no warrant is necessary, why did they get one from the FISA court ?

This is about unmasking.

Did you even read the article or what I just posted?

So you have full confidence in Dr. Rick Bright.

Good for you.

Illegal to leak the name and conversation to the public though

As this all plays out does the campaign slogan "return to normalcy" still resonate with voters?

If by normalcy you mean investigating your predecessor, President Vagina Neck better be careful what he wishes for.
