A former chief of staff of the National Security Council says the White House likely is behind the Tucker Carlson NSA email scandal.
Fred Fleitz, who served for 25 years in national security with various agencies, wrote in a column Friday for The Federalist that it’s now known not only that the National Security Agency was monitoring the Fox News host’s electronic communications, but that “either NSA or senior Biden officials leaked information from his communications to the news media in an attempt to smear him.”
He noted an Axios story Wednesday confirmed Carlson’s claim that an NSA whistleblower informed the Fox host that the agency was reading his emails, or transcripts of his phone calls, or both. A law was broken, Fleitz said, because the names of any American citizens incidentally collected by U.S. intelligence must be strictly protected.
However, top U.S. officials are allowed to ask that the names of Americans be unmasked in rare instances, when warranted.
