Susan Rice Email Suggests Obama Intel. Community Did Not Proceed 'By the Book' on Trump-Russia

The whole point of this is Obama knew he was turning over an investigation into the Trump campaign's involvement with Russia and probable criminal activity, born out by later guilty pleas, by Trump aids. That is politically sensitive and putting the investigation into the hands of Trump himself.

So she wrote, to document the discussion:

Quote:
 
"President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities ‘by the book’. The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective," Rice wrote. "He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book."

Obama reportedly made these remarks in the context of a January 5 meeting, "following a briefing by IC leadership on Russian hacking during the 2016 Presidential election." The meeting included FBI Director James Comey, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, Vice President Joe Biden, and Rice herself, according to the email.


Based on the circus this investigation has become and the clear attempts to impede it and obstruct it, she was right to document it and Obama was right to worry about it.
