Last week, it was reported that Admiral Mike Rogers, who served as President Obama’s National Security Advisor, has been cooperating with U.S. Attorney John Durham’s criminal inquiry into the origins of the Trump/Russia collusion investigation. This was big news for two reasons.
I wrote about the first reason in a recent post, in which I called Rogers the “Unsung Hero.” He was one of the few Obama administration officials who actually had integrity, a man who noticed that something was amiss and acted. It was this man who traveled to Trump Tower on November 17, 2016, to brief then-President-elect Donald Trump that communications from the building were being tapped. He did not notify his superior, then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, beforehand.
Later that day, the Trump transition team announced they were moving their operations to a new location in New Jersey. Within days, the Washington Post reported that “James Clapper and Defense Secretary Ash Carter had recommended the removal of Mike Rogers from his NSA position.” Rogers was not fired, for obvious reasons.
The second reason predates the FBI’s application to the FISA Court for a warrant to spy on Carter Page by a couple of years, but in light of IG Horowitz’s report, this story becomes even more relevant. Rogers discovered that American citizens were being spied upon and drew attention to the abuse of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act by the Obama administration. According to former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova, Section 702 allows the government to essentially weaponize the NSA’s ability to collect data and surveil private U.S. citizens.
Used as intended, it has been a useful law enforcement tool. Abused as it had been by Obama administration officials up until Rogers’ discovery in 2014, it became a weapon. DiGenova said, “For more than four years before the election of Donald Trump, there was an illegal spying operation going on by FBI [private] contractors — four of them — to steal personal information, electronic information about Americans and to use it against the Republican Party.”
In a Christmas Eve interview with WMAL radio station (audio below), diGenova explains how the FBI’s efforts to cover up the 702 spying brought us “Crossfire Hurricane.” Rogers discovered it and reported it to the FISA Court and said “she” stopped it (I assume “she” refers to FISC Judge Rosemary Collyer). DiGenova says it led to the “crescendo of activity by Comey, Clapper, and Brennan. It led to the so-called Crossfire Hurricane investigation to cover-up the previous spying that had been going on.”
Rogers has an electronic trail of all the spying that went on over five years. He has personal notes – like Jim Comey – only this time they are not self-serving notes, they are the truth…I have described Mike Rogers as the Rosetta Stone of this investigation…I can be fairly confident now in saying there will be a substantial criminal conspiracy indictment against a lot of people with the electronic spying.

This is being told NOW?
More hope porn.
Thanks for this post. It shines a little beam of hope in the darkness of these days.
I have to think IF Durham/Rogers was an ACTUAL threat to the Deep State, the Dems, the RINO’s, etc... his investigation would have been terminated long ago.
I had hope that Durham was a potential light shining upon the darkness. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no indication that any gov’t official whatsoever has the guts/integrity to challenge the Deep State and its corruption.
Our Gov’t is corrupt to the very core. A bureaucracy whose sole purpose is to sustain itself. And, target for destruction anyone or anything that threatens its bloated existence.
Our gov’t is not populated by Patriots. It is populated by Leftists at the top and Lazy, Entitled, Gov’t Employees at the mid ranks and below.
Nope. Fail.
Nope. Idiot.
I have been waiting to read something like this for FOUR AGONIZING YEARS.
I pray there is truth in this article.
Oh just stop it already with the Durham BS. Durham couldn’t/wouldn’t indict anyone who actually mattered if he had a signed confession and seven eyewitnesses, and if he tried to the DoJ would shut it down immediately and plant kiddie porn on his computer. He’d wind up buried in whatever hole they have Ghislane Maxwell.
“I can be fairly confident now in saying there will be a substantial criminal conspiracy indictment against a lot of people with the electronic spying.”

Well, “fairly confident” ranks far above my own level of optimism. Having seen all the $h!t that was allowed thus far in respect to the Clintons, Comey, Brennan, Klinesmith ... damn! You guys know the list. Don’t make me spell it all out for you over again.
How can anyone have any amount of confidence?
Is “fairly” the word he meant?
Thinking he must have said “faintly confident”.
The Clintons loaded all their hacks into the universities as chancellors and board executives of state colleges. Obama kicked it up a notch from twisting young minds in college to twisting all minds using the news outlets.
More Afghan pile-on.
BTW Admiral Rogers was head of the National Security Agency the spy and puzzle palace that doe crypto not Obama National Security Advisor. Susan Rice was the National Security Advisor and the biggest lying sack of shit in the whole Obama administration. Anyone who doesn’t know that doesn’t know squat about Russiagate and can safely be ignored.
If true also, if Judge Collyer didn't issue arrest orders for the participants in the conspiracy, she herself is now a party to the conspiracy and has obstructed justice.
Watch, if this Durham report does eventually come out and there is validity here and it isn’t covered up, this “judge” will be Epsteined conveniently right before testimony.
All that this “investigation” is for is to ensure all traces of the crimes perpetrated against Trump are found and erased.
There you go. The entire Durham report after going thru the DOJ review and redactions.
She’s party to it NOW. She and Contreras, Strzoks buddy are neck deep in it from the onset.
If she was legit she’d have everyone that lied to her court in a cell.
Hope? Sorry to be a Debbie Downer but there’s absolutely no hope that any of the entrenched swamp rats will ever be brought to justice. Haven’t we all learned that from experience?
