Navy Admiral Mike Rogers sat down with President Elect Trump, for what? He is head of the National Security Agency, under Obama. He's in the military chain of command. And it appears he never told the current commander in chief Obama, he was doing this.
GREENE: Well, that points to a real question then of what we expect from Donald Trump. I mean, we learned so much from the Edward Snowden situation about the NSA and its power to collect information about people around the world and also within the United States. I mean, what will a President Donald Trump mean for those kinds of programs?
BAMFORD: Well, a lot of the restrictions that have been placed on the U.S. use of NSA were executive orders, and they could be just overturned with the use of a pen.
