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.
Yeah, but Trump was President Elect when he told him. Not a candidate. Everyone expected Hillary to win. She has people killed.
Agreed. We owe Admiral Rodgers a great debt.
I think the wheels of Justice are grinding and many of the perpetrates of this illegal surveillance & coup attempt will receive justice.
8 months
Thanks, that explains the timing. I’m glad you did post, I was confused at first thinking he had just retired and then saw the date.
As we learn more and more about what was being done by the Obama Administration the depth of our debt to Admiral Rogers is made manifest as is the criminal behavior of the Deep State.
Yardstick sorry should have been to ResisterSister

NSA hero - bump for later.....
Admiral Mike Rogers will have a nice place in history books... a man who saw it all coming and almost single-handedly put a stop to the subversion..
How are Section 702 violations connected to Carter Page?
Thanks. Great video!
News coming fast and furious this a.m.

Bump
T’would be much better if they approach the gallows in single file. One at a time, while the others wait and watch.
or see treasonous minions go before them
An excellent point. Why do you think that is? Maybe he himself wanted to see if the manufactured rumors were true or false? Maybe he wanted to see how deep the plotters went? was it indeed an attempted coup, or something less sinister?
I have always had interest in Deputy AG for National Security John Carlin. He saw, and approved these sec.702 requests to NSA, and the FISA warrants. It was his job. He resigned right before the election. why? He was clearly involved. No one ever asks what he knew.
