Those who enjoy the deep weeds of politics, especially White Hat/Black Hat intrigue, will find this Reuters Story popcorn worthy.
The Back Story – Admiral Michael Rogers, not to be confused with former House Intel Chair Rep. Mike Rogers, is the Director of the NSA (National Security Agency) and U.S. Cyber Command.
Admiral Michael Rogers met with President-Elect Trump, somewhat quietly, last week (Thursday).

Best question on this post!
“Yes, why would Mike needed to be fired just because he met with Trump. No reason to fire him right before Trump takes office..unless something nefarious is afoot.”
If Clinton had won, Mike might have been another mystery suicide.

On another intel front, things might get really dicey for Obama/Clinton:
Trump’s National Security Picks Want to Air Obama’s Iran Secrets

For years, many Republicans and conservatives have charged that President Barack Obama was shielding embarrassing intelligence and policy details about Iran in order to support the nuclear deal reached last year.
With Donald Trump’s upset victory, the party of Lincoln will have an opportunity to declassify and disclose this information. While no decisions have been made, two early picks to Trump’s cabinet suggest this is going to happen.
Let’s start with retired general Michael Flynn, the next president’s choice to be national security adviser. Flynn served for two years as Obama’s director of the Defense Intelligence Agency from 2012 to 2014. Just as relevant, however, is that in 2011 he ran a team at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence that reviewed the troves of material captured in the 2011 Osama bin Laden raid.
Under Obama, the intelligence community has declassified a small fraction of those documents and released them in drips and drabs. This prompted Flynn, after he retired in 2014, to charge that the disclosures were selective. Flynn has said in interviews and writings that some documents captured in the bin Laden raid showed a much tighter relationship between Iran and al-Qaeda than previously disclosed.

Thank you for that information...
BTTT
Excellent ! Thanks for sharing.
The sweet thing is that if Obama fires anyone who may be really useful, Trump can do a very quick turnaround once he takes the oath...instead of being fired, he may end up with a promotion if he impresses the CINC properly.
NSA chief Rogers is recommended to be fired.
State Department supposedly can't find thousands of emails and other documents.
The only thing that makes sense to me is criminal activity is being planned by the Obama administration.
