WASHINGTON A group of current and former FBI agents today endorsed former Michigan congressman Mike Rogers to take over as director of the agency.
“Chairman Rogers exemplifies the principles that should be possessed by the next FBI director,” said Thomas F. O’Connor, president of the FBI Agents Association, in announcing the endorsement of Rogers to replace James Comey. “It is essential that the next FBI director understand the details of how agents do their important work.”
The FBI Agents Association, a group with a membership of 13,000 current and former FBI agents, had previously endorsed Rogers, a former FBI agent himself who represented Michigan in Congress for 14 years before stepping down in 2015.

I wonder how mike Rogers would do as FBI director,anyone have anything about him?
Poll of Americans? What does that mean or have anything to do with anything?
Wasn’t it Rogers who chaired the the committee that gave the first report about Benghazi which clear Hillary and didn’t even interview her?

Rogers is a disgrace. Rogers was part of the problem during the Benghazi fiasco
Incredibly, Dick Morris points out that until recently Mike Rogers wife was the president and the CEO of the company that was contracted by the State Department to provide intelligence-based and physical security services. While this sort of crony capitalism is seen as business as usual in the cesspool that is D.C., the really crazy part of this story is that as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rogers is charged with investigating the adequacy of security at the Benghazi compound prior to the September 11, 2012 terrorist attack.
You cant find a bigger conflict of interest than that
Dick Morris writes:
Congressman Mike Rogers (R-Mich.), as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, is charged with investigating the adequacy of security at the Benghazi compound prior to the September 11, 2012 terrorist attack.
His wife, Kristi Clemens Rogers was the president and the CEO of the company that was contracted by the State Department to provide that security!
Mrs. Rogers, until recently, served as president and CEO of Aegis LLC, the contractor to the United States Department of State for intelligence-based and physical security services.
Aegis, a British private military company with overseas offices in Afghanistan, Bahrain, Iraq, Kenya, Nepal and the U.S., won a $10 billion, 5-year contract with the State Department to provide security for U.S. diplomatic posts around the world.
Aegis describes itself as a leading private security company, provides government and corporate clients with a full spectrum of intelligence-led, culturally-sensitive security solutions to operational and development challenges around the world.
Congressman Rogers, who abruptly announced his intention not to seek re-election, has been criticized for dragging his feet in the Benghazi investigation. Only when pressure from back benchers on his committee became intense did he agree to hold last weeks hearing at which former Deputy CIA Director Mike Morrell testified.
How on earth can the Rogers family justify having a husband who chairs a Congressional committee charged with reviewing the performance of his wifes company in guarding the Benghazi compound?
Is this the reason Rogers just abruptly announced his retirement to become a talk radio host?
