My derp self was wondering what Kavanaugh actually SAID/DID regarding the Patriot Act, because what was he sworn in on, what did he know about the full scope, etc etc.

I noticed something.
On this page, including References:
The term NSA comes up 29 times.
Snowden: 6
PRISM: 2
Echelon: 0
Cyber (Command): 0
FBI/Federal B: 0
CIA/Ce: 0

Think Snowden.
Think Adm. Rogers
Playing The Game to get into position.
Not everyone is perfect
Sometimes the hats and tactics were Gray, but always White Dominant.
Better than being on Clinton's Kill List.
Furthermore.
Think Snowden II: Failed.
Think Gen. Nakasone Satoshi-sama.
Why is it that the only "target" is the NSA?
Who is targeting them, and why?
How long has this been going on for?
Why was Obama considering removing Adm. Rogers?

If Kavanaugh "defended the Patriot Act" in 2015, and Adm. Rogers was the NSA/CyberCom head since 2014… how aware of each other were they?
And a fun tidbit from Admiral Roger's Wki:
"The Washington Post reported on 19 November 2016 that Defense Secretary Ashton B. Carter and Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James R. Clapper, Jr. had sometime earlier in the year recommended to President Obama that Rogers be terminated as director of the National Security Agency.[15] Carter reportedly recommended he be terminated due to poor performance, whereas Clapper considered it wise that the position be held by a civilian.[15] Both Clapper and Carter had put Rogers on notice for poor performance in internal security and leadership style.[15] His termination was reportedly delayed due to stalled changes to the bureaucratic structure of the intelligence community.[15] Before the recommendation of firing was made, Rogers met with then President-elect Donald Trump without notifying his superiors.[16] Trump was reportedly considering replacing Clapper with Rogers as DNI, however that position went to former Senator Dan Coats, with Rogers remaining NSA director.[15]"
