BREAKING: CIA Director John Brennan Targeted General Flynn and Sean Hannity For Surveillance
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | Apr 5th, 2017

Barack Obama‘s CIA Director John O. Brennan targeted Trump supporters for enhanced surveillance, intelligence sources confirm to GotNews’ Charles C. Johnson.

The surveillance took place between Trump’s election on November 8 and the inauguration in January, according to White House and House intelligence sources.

The focus was on General Mike Flynn, billionaire Erik Prince, and Fox News host Sean Hannity — all of whom had close ties to Trump before and after the November election and had helped the future president with managing his new diplomatic responsibilities.

Hannity was targeted because of his perceived ties to Julian Assange, say our intelligence sources. Hannity was reportedly unmasked by Susan Rice at Brennan’s behest thanks to his close relationship with Trump and Julian Assange.

Blackwater founder Erik Prince, a former CIA covert asset, has long criticized the CIA’s bloat and incompetence, including the Brennan-run CIA drone program’s failure to properly target terrorists rather than Afghan civilians. Prince has repeatedly called for restructuring the CIA and argued against Brennan’s tenure.

The motivations for Brennan’s dislike of Flynn date back years. The two had publicly feuded during Flynn’s time as Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). Flynn was producing intel documents that showed how the supposed Syrian moderates were actually assets of Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Brennan, who speaks Arabic and has a prayer rug in his office (he is rumored to have converted to Islam), favored the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood while he worked for Obama.

Here is a video of Brennan speaking Arabic and praising ‘the beauty of Islam’:

I guess I will state the obvious that the CIA is not able to operate in the US. That is the realm of the FBI.

In my opinion, the once obviously true is not so obviously assumed anymore. Take the NSA as an example, supposedly prohibited from acquiring information concerning the domestic activities of United States persons has been exposed as just the opposite...

Another example: the IRS...

I would suggest that our institutions can no longer be assumed beyond reproach. Trust but verify truly applies now because the once financial, logistical and physical checks and balances that ensured a limited government have been dramatically eroded by the leftist government and elite class....

Are there NO patriots in the CIA? Why haven't they come forward and squealed to the CIA IG, their Congressman, Senator, or as a last resort gotten a reputable good Qui tam attorney?

I don’t know this guy, except to know he is not Charles Johnson of LGF. So he may have some credibility. His CV on his page while not too draw has some good stops. WSJ, FOX to name two.

The very reason why none of these apparatchiks, like Comey, have been fired or indicted. ‘You take us out, will take you out.’

Sounds like blackmail and deserving of treason. What difference is there between what they are doing and what Robert Hanssen did? I think it is worse, because Bob only passed on secrets and got paid money. He wasn't the head of the agency.

I have a prayer rug in my house too. Bought it in Iraq and used it as a door mat to knock the sand off my feet when I walked into my CHU (containerized housing unit), now use it as a throw rug under the living room table.

I wonder how solid this info is. Hannity said the other day if he finds out he was surveilled be would sue Obama and others. I’d love to see it.


That would be a sight to behold. Finally a guilty leftist in court.

I guess ANYTHING GOES, now days against good ,conservative people! What a joke.


Obama’s Homeland inSecurity actually named classes of people determined to be extremist enemies of the state.

Here’s some of the classifications I can remember: Second Amendment advocates, Christians who believe in the end times, veterans, people who don’t trust the US government or who are against globalization. Third party voters.

The Hamadan prayer rugs are entry rugs

Hannity has been talking about this on his show, so not sure why you would think it is a “rolls eyes” story...

The film Enemy of the State was a 1990s spy thriller about the misuse of the NSA to selectively go after the government’s domestic enemies. It looks quaint compared to what it is doing today (basically spying on everybody).


Every time family watched that movie, I have said “It could happen here”...Now we know it has :(

Excellent movie BTW.

"I guess I will state the obvious that the CIA is not able to operate in the US."

Not true. They can't operate within the US without someone from the FBI, DEA, or Customs, as part of their operation to ensure that the rules under which those three agencies operate are obeyed.

Jay Sekulow and Joe DiGenova has already publicly stated they would enthusiastically represent Sean in such an action. Combine these two and also Judicial Watch from another front and this is going to be fun on discovery.

So Sean Hannity actually has standing to sue Susan Rice, and call Bobo as a material witness.

It's either Christmas or Halloween.

Haha, Sooo true! Nobody will shoot this longer and louder than Hannity the Reagan Republican. He’ll get the most exposure on his TV show.

Beware of tabloid websites feeding stories that you hope and pray are true. They usually aren’t.

Brennan, who speaks Arabic and has a prayer rug in his office

Well, I have a couple of "prayer rugs" in my house as well. I don't use them to pray. I use them to cover my floors. I call them "Persian carpets."

Out-of-control executive branch and judges (FISA courts).

AND...they get away with it.

The constitution is dead.

The republic is not free.
