Former NSA Director is Cooperating With Probe of Trump-Russia Investigation
The Intercept ^ | December 19th 2019 | Matthew Cole

Posted on 12/20/2019 2:14:33 PM PST by Jacquerie

RETIRED ADM. MICHAEL ROGERS, former director of the National Security Agency, has been cooperating with the Justice Department’s probe into the origins of the counterintelligence investigation of the Trump presidential campaign’s alleged ties to Russia, according to four people familiar with Rogers’s participation.

Rogers has met the prosecutor leading the probe, Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham, on multiple occasions, according to two people familiar with Rogers’s cooperation. While the substance of those meetings is not clear, Rogers has cooperated voluntarily, several people with knowledge of the matter said.

Rogers, who retired in May 2018, did not respond to requests for comment.

Rogers’s voluntary participation, which has not been previously reported, makes him the first former intelligence director known to have been interviewed for the probe.

“He’s been very cooperative,” one former intelligence officer who has knowledge of Rogers’s meetings with the Justice Department said.

Politico and NBC News have previously reported that Durham intends to interview both former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. It is unclear if that has happened. Brennan and the Justice Department declined to comment. Clapper could not be reached for comment.

Clapper has at least twice said on cable TV that they were all just following Obama’s orders.

Let the cities burn.

Now Durham can ask many questions of Brennan, Clapper and Rice, questions that Durham now knows the answers to.

This is called selective leaking. Used to make others quake in their boots and turn. Wonder who(or whom, I never know) it will be.

Great to hear. Rogers was targeted by the same individuals who ran the operation on Trump. He’s in a position to lay a heavy dose of payback upon these traitors.

Admiral Rogers is one genuine deserving candidate for being awarded the Congressional Medal of Freedom and Medal of Honor.

None of the Coup Plot would have seen the light of day had it not been for his courage and patriotism.

The story goes that the kenyan and Brennan wanted to fire Rogers for famously going to Trump Tower and warning President elect Trump about Spygate. Who knows how much of that is true. Trump did move his HQ to his golf course in NJ the day after meeting Rogers.

That should scare many of the Scampeachment Cult and the attempted Coup plotters into running away from the US.

Admiral Mike will shred the lies of the Russian Coup Bsers from Brennan to Comey to Clapper, to Rice and maybe Obama.

Death knell for the deep state.

Now they are worried. Perhaps terrified.

Dangerous times.

Are Clapper and Brennan and Comey feeling the heat yet?

A lot of people need to go to jail.

That was the excuse used frequently why we could not object to the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Would have been worth the risk, rather than endure what has transpired.

Be quiet now, we don’t want Brennan, Clapper, Comey and Rice to panic and run away to another country.

The letter entity that cannot be named, told us about this back in July. I almost forgot that it was not already public knowledge.

Very interesting read about Rogers here. Rogers has the info to blow Obama’s rampant illegal spying racket from 2014 onward completely up.
