The recommendation, delivered to the White House last month, was made by Defense Secretary Ashton B. Carter and Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr., according to several U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

However, some of Obami’s security its being against him, might be a positive for Trump.

In a move apparently unprecedented for a military officer, Rogers, without notifying superiors, traveled to New York to meet with Trump on Thursday at Trump Tower. Could be he pissed off some of Obama's career minions?

Admiral Rogers is a good man. He is dual-hated as the Director of NSA, and the Commander of US Cyber Command.

My feeling is once Obama is out, the NSA wants to go after Valerie Jarret.
WaPo doesn’t want the American people to know she was funneling info to the WaPo.

Thanks for your feedback.
If he is a good man as you, Trump will make a place for him in this critical area.

Would make you wonder - if true - just how bad are the obamas and Clintons that intel professionals would go to those lengths to see them defeated.

NSA Head Rodgers accuses WikiLeaks of electing TrumpEverything in this country is so goddamn wild right now, its easy to miss things. Which is why its worth noting that the head of the National Security Agency just openly described Wikileaks as a tool of a nation-state (thatd be Russia), which deliberately used targeted leaks to get Donald Trump elected.
