So what will come of this....

I think the NSA part is being taken care of by Admiral Rogers, who went outside the chain-of-command (perhaps you remember how upset the MSM was about that!) to let Trump know about this spying. After watching Rosenstein's testimony the other day, though, I do think we are going to see a public shake-up with the release of the Office of the Inspector General's report, which has apparently swelled to 1.2 million documents concerning the politicization of the FBI and DOJ. There is no deadline on when the report has to be concluded, but the 1.2 million documents were promised to the oversight committee by January 15th, 2018. On the other hand, a few news outlets are reporting inside information daily, which can drive the narrative and push the action. Eventually, what I want to come of this, is justice. It remains to be seen and skepticism is warranted, but it feels like we are closer than we have been in a long time.
