Circa’s Sara Carter reported yesterday that former Obama staffer Ben Rhodes is now a “person of interest” in the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into the unmasking of Americans during the Obama administration:

Now, while this does seem like really big news, former Assistant United States Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andrew C. McCarthy has his doubts:
'Person of interest' is nonsense term in law-enforcement (where question is 'subject' or 'target' of GJ inv). What does it mean to Congress? https://t.co/6QCR8NrJkn

And this is a very good question:
I'm very interested in unmasking/political-spying story. My hesitation: POTUS could declassify all this info. Why hasn't he?

On unmasking, when POTUS could declassify & publicize all info but chooses not to, I worry they're more interested in narrative than facts.

I'm totally willing to believe there was political spying. But when people in position easily to prove it just float innuendo, count me out. https://t.co/RKVVRHi6Zw

Over to you, President Trump: Time to unmask the unmaskers.
