ANDREW MCCARTHY: On Susan Rice, the Issue Is Abuse of Power, Not Criminality. “At her direction, the Obama White House violated the public trust. . . . If the new reporting is to be believed, Rice orchestrated the unmasking of communications involving the Democrats’ political rivals — the Trump campaign. Her current stress on the lawfulness of the intelligence collection is a straw man.”

I’m pretty sure there’s illegality in the mix, too, and that it will come out.
