That Strange NSA Non-Denial
Tucker v. the Surveillance State
 |
Yesterday, Tucker announced that the National Security Agency had been collecting his communications in order to take him off the air. He has now provided a brief update:
Tonight, the NSA responded to Tucker Carlson’s allegations. In particular, the NSA wrote:
Tucker Carlson alleged that the National Security Agency has been “monitoring our electronic communications and is planning to leak them in an attempt to take this show off the air.” This allegation is untrue.
This is a carefully drafted denial by the NSA (likely coordinated by NSA leadership), as there are three separate “allegations” within Tucker’s quote. To this we ask a key question: which “allegation” is untrue?
Is it that the NSA has been “monitoring [Tucker’s] electronic communications”?
Is it that the NSA “is planning to leak” Tucker’s communications?
Or is it that the NSA will try to take Tucker’s show “off the air”
Here the NSA is using vague language is used to mislead the public. The press will run this as a wholesale denial, and many in America will agree.
Those who look closely will see something else: that the NSA, while stating that Tucker “has never been an intelligence target,” does not categorically deny having his electronic communications.
Something is up.
The old "has never been an intelligence target" gaslighting.
So..why are they monitoring his communications if he us not an intel target? Cause they are lawless.
There was a time that US intel spying on Americans was the third rail.
Didn’t the NSA allow Democrat Party contractors access to spy on Trump and others - no wait, wasn’t it the National Security Council / Advisor or the CIA or FBI or military who gave access to NSA’s databases? Same old players, same old treason and treachery. Obama and his anti-American Communist henchmen and henchwomen at work.
