A Quiet Hero – NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers Retires
Themarketswork ^ | May 5, 2018 | Jeff Carlson

Posted on 04/25/2019 6:14:22 AM PDT by ResistorSister

EXCERPT: There is a direct benefit from Rogers’ retirement. His job at the NSA complete, Admiral Rogers is now free to testify…

For those less familiar, here’s a timeline of events transpiring at the NSA:

November 2015-April 2016 – The FBI and DOJ’s National Security Division (NSD) uses private contractors to access raw FISA information using “To” and “From” FISA-702(16) & “About” FISA-702(17) queries.

March 2016 – NSA Director Rogers becomes aware of improper access to raw FISA data.

April 2016 – Rogers orders the NSA compliance officer to run a full audit on 702 NSA compliance.

April 18 2016 – Rogers shuts down FBI/NSD contractor access to the FISA Search System.

April-September 2016 – Rogers continues his investigation.

September 26 2016 – DOJ’s NSD Head John Carlin files the Government’s proposed 2016 Section 702 certifications. The filing does not disclose the FISA Abuses. Carlin is aware of Rogers’ compliance review. The 2016 certifications are scheduled for Court approval on October 26, 2016.

September 27 2016 – Carlin announces he is resigning. Mary McCord will later assume his position.

October 15, 2016 – Carlin formally leaves the NSD.Mid-October 2016 – DNI Clapper submits a recommendation to the White House that Director Rogers be removed from the NSA. Clapper’s effort fails.

October 20 2016 – Rogers is briefed by the NSA compliance officer on the Section 702 NSA compliance audit and “About” query violations.

October 21 2016 – Rogers shuts down all “About Query” activity. Rogers reports the activity to DOJ and prepares to go before the FISA Court.

October 21 2016 – DOJ & FBI seek and receive a Title I FISA probable cause order authorizing electronic surveillance on Carter Page from the FISC. At this point, the FISA Court is unaware of the Section 702 violations.

October 24 2016 – Rogers verbally informs the FISA Court of Section 702(17) violations.

October 26 2016 – Rogers formally informs the FISA Court of 702(17) violations in writing.

October 26, 2016 – The FISA Court refuses to formalize the 2016 Section 702 certifications. A complete overhaul of Section 702 processes ensues.

November 17 2016 (morning) – Rogers travels to meet President-Elect Trump and his Transition Team in Trump Tower. Rogers does not inform DNI James Clapper.

November 17 2016 (evening) – Trump Transition Team announces they are moving all transition activity to Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey.

When all is said and done - there’s a high probability that he will be honored and will be held in high esteem throughout history.

Yes, he knew about it for a year, and I’ll venture that he also knew that to tell Obama would only get him fired before he had a chance of telling a new president who would try to fix the problem. As the Kenny Roger’s “Gambler” song says: Know when to hold ‘em.....

Bottom Line Interesting Story but he retired a year ago, seems a strange time to post this with no update or current new on Admiral Rogers.

After Rogers travelled to meet Trump on Nov. 17, 2016, to advise him that he was being illegally surveilled, Clapper and Brennan both went to Obama to try and have Rogers fired.

God, I would love to see Brennan publicly hanged! Treasonous bastard!

Trump needs to put him on 24/7 Secret Service protection.

Last night on the Laura Ingraham show Admiral Rogers hero status was mentioned by, Joe doGenova. While researching Admiral Rogers I found this story with the time-line. I thought others might find it helpful/interesting.

There might have been no investigation by Inspector General Horowitz.”


I’ve got my fingers crossed that the Horowitz report on FISA abuse will be the true bombshell that we’ve been waiting for.

I agree w/ your point #3. That is where the TX & GA are in play and Hilary could run the table and her campaign went there and ignored WI & MI.

You have it.... there were very many other “white hats” particularly surrounding the prospective Flynn. The political was ongoing inside the famouse “17 Intel agencies” that the moron Clapper presumably was central control of- and it’s no secret obmauamao hired this bozo because he was a bozo.

How to verify this? Difficult w/out security clearance but match up Brennan, Comey and Clapper’s actions in this timeline, and date them back to the time we KNOW the original surveillance began-that is, from the time the first “dossier” began being kicked about as “cover” for their actions.
A hint, really important one is the first write up of the so called “dossier” was done well before Fusion GPS was hired to “market” it and also to “wash” it with Russian taint using Steele’s (long past expiry) supposed bona fides with the fbi. Here’s who wrote it: Cody Shearer son of Parade magazine now dead editor in chief Lloyd Shearer— trash peddler.

He is without doubt under Presidential directed security protection... not DOJ... Presidential/Military. To guard against obamaumo-icide or clinton-arkancide. The fact is- the ONLY time obamaumao did anything about “russian interference” is after Rogers warned Trump and Trump moved his ops to NJ. It was right after that, all of a sudden the russians were ordered out of their complex in MD (which tries to recruit spies in the NSA, btw) and their other “consulates”— some 70 persona non gratas— all sent away for too late “cover” for what obamaumao was doing surveilling some 5000 Americans (an estimate provided by American Spectator) since before 2015. And don’t forget Rice’s memo to herself indicating the “law and regs were followed”... recorded on Inauguration Day 15 mins before Trump took the Oath of Office.

This WAS (and still is) a coup, ongoing.

Rogers is a hero and saved the Republic. I firmly believe he deserves a medal for keeping his oath when so many failed to do so. To think just doing his job amidst the traitors of the Obama Administration.
