The Wall Street Journal editorial board criticized the Obama administration over the unmaskings surrounding former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin released a declassified list Wednesday showing former Obama administration officials who unmasked conversations involving Flynn. In total, “39 separate officials snooped on Mr. Flynn’s conversations with foreign actors,†making “nearly 50 unmasking demands between Nov. 30, 2016 and Jan. 12, 2017,†the WSJ wrote.
“The media cordon sanitaire that protects Democrats will say this is no big deal because unmasking is routine and legal. But if the masking rule means nothing in practice, why pretend it exists?†WSJ’s editorial board wrote Wednesday evening.
