On Russia-gate. One avenue that I've never seen anyone fully flesh out is the Admiral Mike Rogers angle. Obama's NSA chief. To me it seems like one of the keys to everything. He went around Obama...didn't clear it with the West Wing... visited Trump Tower and met with Trump. The next morning Trump moved his entire transition team out of that building down to New Jersey and famously sent out the tweet....
"Obama is tapping my wires".
To the best of my knowledge, no one... NO ONE...has asked Rogers straight out... "Did you tip off Trump to what the Obama Administration was doing?" This seems like a glaring hole in the reporting around Crossfire Hurricane and Russia-gate.
No? Let's get this guy on record.
He's been very quiet. He's also Obama's only Security State Chief who was an actual Military Man. Not a pencil pushing bureaucrat.

I'm halfway through the Tucker chat.
It's fantastic and I love the optimism.

He may be a National Hero.
Thanks.
