It came out of his “inter-agency task force” at Langley.
Trump won primary after primary in 2016, a rattled John Brennan started claiming to colleagues at the CIA that Estonia’s intelligence agency had alerted him to an intercepted phone call suggesting Putin was pouring money into the Trump campaign. The tip was bogus, but Brennan bit on it with opportunistic relish.
Out of Brennan’s alarmist chatter about the bogus tip came an extraordinary leak to the BBC: that Brennan had used it, along with later half-baked tips from British intelligence, as the justification to form a multi-agency spy operation on the Trump campaign, which he was running right out of CIA headquarters.
The CIA was furious about the leak, but never denied the BBC’s story. To Congress earlier this year, Brennan acknowledged the existence of the group, but cast his role in it as the mere conduit of tips about Trump-Russia collusion..
But if his role had truly been passive, the “inter-agency taskforce” wouldn’t have been meeting at CIA headquarters. By keeping its discussions at Langley, Brennan could keep his finger wedged in the pie. Both before and after the FBI’s official probe began in late July 2016, Brennan was bringing together into the same room at CIA headquarters a cast of Trump haters across the Obama administration whose activities he could direct — from Peter Strzok, the FBI liaison to Brennan, to the doltish Jim Clapper, Brennan’s errand boy, to an assortment of Brennan’s buddies at the Treasury Department, Justice Department, and White House.

It appears there may have been more than the one identified spy.
Like most suspected this plot was basically run by Brennan out of the CIA. What’s remarkable is he worked with interagency help, mainly the FBI. There’s no way to hide this mess now.
Just wow! Thankfully PDJT fights back. What a welcome change for a Republican.
It seems pretty clear to me that Brennan was one of the primary members of what I will call the “soft coup” against Donald Trump, which is nothing less than an attempt to overthrow the duly elected President of the United States of America and subvert the election results for the 2016 Presidential Election.
Ordinarily, this would be sedition - but not here. This involved the cooperation of foreign interests and intelligence agencies, raising it to the level of TREASON.
Brennan ought to be indicted for treason, made to stand trial, and given the punishment called for in the Constitution: death. That’s what we did after the Civil War and the assassination of Lincoln that was part of the plot to overthrow the government...and no damned fool tried it again for 151 years. Time to remind potential traitors of the costs involved in betraying this country and its people.
Hang the traitor John Brennan!!!!!!
Looks like Great Britain, Australia, and our own Obama Justice Dept. did more meddling in the 2016 election than Russia did.
It is captivating watching them go up against a competent opponent who actually has the interest of the people in mind.
What a time to be alive, the most incredible political story ever told unfolding before our eyes.
The patience and brilliance and strategic dominance of Trump CANNOT be understated...They are never prepared for the cool, calculated, and optimized plan of attack of the current administration.
In violation of the Gorelick wall?
Obama weaponized the ATF to frame American Gun Owners
Obama weaponized the IRS to silence his political opposition
Obama weaponized the BLM against American Ranchers
Obama weaponized the Park SService to beat up Veterans
Obama weaponized the State Dept to destroy the Middle East
Is it REALLY that much of a stretch to suspect Obama of weaponizing the Intelligence Agencies against the opposition party?
Hillay said.........”If he wins we all hang” ..We are only now just beginning to understand how true her screeching was, and why.
Yup. AG Lynch was also involved by bringing in the Russian lawyer to set up Don Jr. This is starting to unravel quickly...too many people involved.
The art of stopping a coup!
Funny how that wall fell for Trump.
Whats about to happen, democrats never even saw coming. The real professionals are about to come down on them like a meteor.....
”DO YOU HEAR THE PEOPLE SING!”
Trump already has all the answers. He knows the truth, he knows who is guilty for what crime, he knows that Obama authorized everything from the top............. Look at the Strozk/Page texts, “POTUS wants to know everything we’re doing” ..
The FBI/DOJ conspired together to both frame Trump with their spies, to blame him with their media buddies, all under a political pretense.
Is Hillary’s “we all hang” in a transcript anywhere? Better yet, is there a video? Maybe it was in an email. If so, it would be nice in some campaign ads.
Well... I wake up every day with more pride in President Trump than I had the day before....
Professor Halper was not a spy as being depicted in the media and social media. He was an ‘entrapment specialist ‘hired to feed Papadopoulos information to get the FISA applications rolling. In essence, a set up to initiate a coup against Donald Trump.
