Why The White House Is Probably Behind The Tucker Carlson NSA Email Scandal
It is incumbent on American patriots working in U.S. intelligence agencies to stand up to the abuse of their organizations for political purposes by the Biden administration.

JULY 9, 2021
We now know the National Security Agency (NSA) not only was monitoring the electronic communications of Fox News host Tucker Carlson, but that either NSA or senior Biden officials leaked information from his communications to the news media in an attempt to smear him.
Axios reported July 7: “Tucker Carlson was talking to U.S.-based Kremlin intermediaries about setting up an interview with Vladimir Putin shortly before the Fox News host accused the National Security Agency of spying on him, sources familiar with the conversations tell Axios.”
The Axios article proves several troubling aspects of this story.
First, Carlson was right. This confirms what he says an NSA whistleblower told him: that NSA has been reading his emails, or transcripts of his phone calls, or both. Carlson did not make this up.

Imagine, if you will, if President Trump had been indirectly implicated in the spying against a well-known journalistic figure who was aligned with President Trump's political opponents, in precisely the same way that Alleged President Biden is being implicated.
The screeching demands from the left for the immediate removal from office of President Trump would be so loud and constant it would be impossible to hear one's self think. And I mean removal - they would skip right over impeachment and go directly to demanding removal.
But because it's their political ally - Alleged President Biden - the only sound to be heard is crickets.
What hypocrisy.

Anytime an American electronically communicates with someone in a foreign country, the NSA monitors that communication. That's what they do.

And do they also unmask those communications and leak them to selective members of the public?

Maybe some of the politcal appointees do.

The Left has shifted their focus on this story. First, it was "The NSA isn't spying on Tucker Carlson!" to "Tucker Carlson deserved to be spied upon!"
