Rogers is investigating Trump bigly. Maybe he wants to avoid getting fired?

He was holding out for an Executive Privilege and even though don didn't assert it, he almost gave it to him anyway.

Rogers isn't falling on his sword.
---------
As Rogers is said to have explained to agency personnel, There is no question that we have evidence of election involvement and questionable contacts with the Russians.
On this basis, Admiral Rogers confirmed the existence of highly classified signals intelligence which establishes some sort of collusion between Team Trump and the Kremlin during the 2016 election campaign. However, now that the Justice Department has appointed Robert Mueller special counsel charged with running the Russia investigation, NSA is apparently pulling out all the stops to track down any additional evidence which might be relevant to the expanded inquiry into KremlinGate.
Specifically, last week NSA is believed to have sent out an unprecedented order to the Directorate of Operations, the agencys largest unit.

I want to reach into my TV and strangle those two idiots (Rogers and Coats). NOTHING will happen to anyone due to the GOP. Their asses should be in jail for contempt of congress!
