The FISA signoffs by RR were during the campaign. No way Candidate Trump was briefed that the Obama WH was surveilling him. Trump didn’t know that until he was President-Elect and Admiral Mike Rogers went to Trump Tower to brief the President-Elect without notifying Obama. Teo days later, Brennan, Clapper and one other wanted Admiral Rogers fired.
RR was rubberstamping. He, like Comey thought she would win and the record needed to show that his actions were in accord with what her circle demanded.
Thank you for bringing this up. YES.
This falls into line with the theory that RR was turned, being presented with everything against him. Work with us. You won’t die.
I’d take the deal in his situation.
