Get Ready: The Unmasking Records Will Focus on Trump Transition Team -- and Likely Won't Include Flynn b/c He Was Surveilled for Years (no need to unmask) Sundance at Conservative Tree House makes a great case for why we won't see Flynn in the unmaskings that will be released today.  The reason is that the FBI had Flynn under surveillance for years -- and it's clear why:  Obama considered Flynn a threat to exposing his agendas (Iran, China, ISIS, et al).    All of Flynn's communications would be known to the FBI  (I've long thought that the FBI had a separate FISA on Flynn). https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/05/11/prepare-to-discover-that-michael-flynn-was-not-unmasked-but-everyone-else-was/#more-191491 Now the question becomes why were Trump officials unmasked.  Note that the unmaskings occurred from November 2016 - Feb 2017.  Listen to this video of Nunes describing the unmaskings -- they had nothing to do with Russia: https://youtu.be/x9b3vGCKOfE?t=1
