John Brennan: Rand Paul 'beneath contempt' for naming 'whistleblower' Senator fires back: 'Your shame alone should shut you up'

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., fired back at former CIA Director John Brennan for labeling him "beneath contempt" for reading the alleged impeachment whistleblower's name during the Senate trial.

Brennan wrote on Twitter than Paul "typifies the worst" of President Trump's "craven enablers."

"Any Senator excusing this dangerous behavior makes a mockery of public service," Brennan said. "History will revile all of you."

Paul reacted by pointing to Brennan's service under President Obama, including his role in using the dubious anti-Trump "dossier" to launch a counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign.

"You want to know what’s a mockery of public service, John? Killing 500 people outside of any judicial system," the senator wrote. "Drone strikes on American citizens. Approving British spies to present a dossier of lies paid for by Hillary. Lying to Congress. Your shame alone should shut you up."

Figures that obxxx would appoint a dumb ass to that position. Newflash jb. A whistleblower may be named but whoever he/she/them/they work for are prohibited from retaliation. If eric ciarmella ain't the guy, then he should prove that to those that make the claim.

Are the self righteous liberals STILL trying to pretend that the whistle blower’s name isn’t known by everyone who has read the news in the past three months?

Rand Paul getting flack from Brennan means Brennan is nervous and Paul is right on target.

But wait. I thought only one or two people know the identity of the whistleblower? And Schiff isn’t one of them.

I would think that the CIA has a conduct clause and I am wondering when he gets his ass thrown in prison for violating it.

Rand Paul gets off the track sometimes, but hopefully the impeachment debacle has burned a set of GPS coordinates into his brain so he doesn’t deviate in the future. He can be a big man in the Senate and maybe get another bite of the apple as VP someday if he flies right. Or he can be Romney Jr.

I don’t always like Rand Paul, but he handed Brennan his fat commie ass on this one.

Brennan decided to ignore the most important part of Rand Paul's statement -- when he said, in effect:

"I'm not exposing a whistleblower at all ... because I have received no information through any official government channels that tells me who this whistleblower is."

What does John Brennan know that Rand Paul DOESN'T know here?
