Back in May, Fox News portrayed the "unmasking" story as one of the greatest scandals in American history. Hosts like Hannity, Carlson, and Ingraham went all in on it. And the network's "straight news" division hyped it too. Now it has fallen apart. https://t.co/G63KicEoMS

Some will roll their eyes at news DOJ has quietly ended its "unmasking" review without criminal charges, but it remains shocking that a US president and his allies in opinion media have, without evidence, endlessly accused his predecessor of crimes.

The ENTIRE point of "unmasking" is that you literally don't know who the person is…that's why you make the request to find out the identity. So *by definition* no one could have been deliberately "targeting" Trump officials…how does he not understand this?

Why is it important to continue to point out Trumpworld's campaign of manipulation?
Because the American people were the victims. They were repeatedly misled by Trump and his allies.
