A CI investigation with national security implications and the National Security Advisor and POTUS didn't know about it?

Try again. Ask for the tapes.

Of course POTUS knew about it. That's why Susan Rice emailed herself this memo:

"President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities 'by the book'. The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book."
