There will be no escape for the Princess this time.

So, THAT's how he knew she was part of the rebel alliance and a spy.

But he couldn't tell she was his daughter?
Or could he?

He didn't even know he had a daughter at that time. He didn't learn about the existence of Luke's twin sister for 2 more movies.

Well, if he was that strong with The Force, shouldn't he have gotten a "feeling" about her then?
Or was he so pissed off at the moment, his anger clouded his feelings? [most likely explanation, I guess]

WTF!?!?!?! The ending of Rogue One fucked up the start of New Hope.
1. If Lea's ship is capable of hyper-drive, then when didn't it jump again when being pursued by the Star Destroyer?
2. If Vader was able to kick everyone's ass in Rogue One, then why didn't he do the same when he boarded the ship in New Hope?
3. If Lea's ship was pulled into a hanger on the Star Destroyer, which allowed Vader and the Stormtroopers to enter it, then how was the escape pod with the droids able to launch?

Because the original trilogy was about as close to perfection as possible and lazy writing that bogarts that perfection is a crime against humanity.

I offer some possibilities to try to assuage your right honorable nerdship's agita:
1. If Lea's ship is capable of hyper-drive, then when didn't it jump again when being pursued by the Star Destroyer?
Star Destroyer could have employed tractor beam technology similar to what was used to pull the Millennium Falcon into the Death Star in Episode IV.
2. If Vader was able to kick everyone's ass in Rogue One, then why didn't he do the same when he boarded the ship in New Hope?
He was hot under the collar (helmet) in the immediate aftermath of the loss of the Imperial archive and in immediate pursuit of the Death Star plans. We don't know exactly how long it took the Destroyer to catch up to Lea's ship, but I submit it was long enough for Vader to regain his badass composure. In other words, he could have kicked everyone's ass when he boarded in New Hope, but he had cooled down enough to let his junior associates...I mean his storm troopers...do the basic bitch work.
3. If Lea's ship was pulled into a hanger on the Star Destroyer, which allowed Vader and the Stormtroopers to enter it, then how was the escape pod with the droids able to launch?
Escape pod launched before the outside portal of the hanger was closed, as shown below. D'rr.

Whimsy addressed the mechanics. I just want to point out that this concern only involves A New Hope. Rogue One didn't create some new problem here.
Carry on.

Sure it did. Rogue One introduced the concepts that (1) Lea's ship has hyperdrive and (2) that Vader is, basically, invincible against mere mortals.

The only reason it was able to pull the Falcon is b/c the hyperdrive was jacked up. So ...

I know what they showed when the pod launched, but it is another inconsistency. There is no docking station linked to the ship. They went in through the side of the ship (not the top). Which means the bay doors were closed and the bay pressurized when the Stormtroopers entered the ship. Lazy writing.
Also, this sums up how ridiculous that scene is:

Those points are relevant to your first 2 objections. But, blame for your third point lies solely at the feet of A New Hope.
