So what is Snowden getting at?

It doesn’t make sense for Obama to remove the head of NSA 2 months before the inauguration of a new president. And I don’t see where they have raised any serious issues with Clapper.

It’s not like Trump couldn’t talk to the guy for a smooth transition.

I don’t get this whole story.

Supposedly, the recommendation to remove him was made about a month ago.

The official reason given was concerns about ongoing lax security, and ineffective operations against ISIS.

I don’ t believe either reason, nor do I think it had anything to do with his recent visit with Trump, for which he took personal leave.

Removing him now allows the black hats to erase and hide possible incriminating information.

My take-away is : "his case has not been made public. The individual is not believed to have shared the material with another country." That's clever word-smithing. If the individual was not collecting the information to share with another country, whom within this country was he working for?

I suspect one point of the call to fire Rogers is the claim that he engaged in politics as a government employee, as hard is that is to believe from any supporter of the obama mafia.
