On Fridays broadcast of MSNBCs Rachel Maddow Show, former CIA Director John Brennan stated that he didnt mean President Trump committed treason when he referred to the presidents performance at the Helsinki summit as nothing short of treasonous.
Host Rachel Maddow said, After Helsinki, you were stark, and even a little bit scary in your criticism of his behavior. You said it rose to treason.
Brennan responded, I said it was nothing short of treasonous.

And this guy should have a security clearance? I think not.
The REASON he said it was treason was over Trump’s choice of words at the press conference! And now he splits hairs over his own use of words.

Brennan should understand that he has the right to remain silent. Yes he should understand that. He should also understand, that when he is digging himself into a hole, the wise thing to do, is to STOP digging. What a total ass hat 🎩 this chump is.

Because Hillary, and Obama and Kerry and Slick and who know how many others, have committed treason.

Trump isn’t committing treason.
But you, Mr. Brennan, are committing sedition.

Grammatically, that is *identical* to saying I said it was treason. He really doesnt seem to be the brightest bulb in the socket, does he?

“Definition of treasonous - involving or guilty of the crime of betraying one’s country”
I guess if you are a Leftist words mean whatever you want them to mean.

Brennan has outed himself as the most partisan CIA director ever. And long before Trump, he was caught lying to congress. And leaking to the press. So, without any other reason he should lose his clearance. Nobody should ask him about anything. His answers would be jaded and questions. There is virtually no information he would know that others would not. So he has no purpose having a TS clearance.

Brennan’s company, The Analysis Corp, scrubbed the passport records of Barack Obama and John McCain. So well known that it’s even in the wiki entry on The Analysis Corporation!

George Orwell was one of the greatest geniuses of the 20th century.Indeed. And the Deep State read "1984", not as a dystopian warning, but as a training manual.

If it's "nothing short of treasonous", then it's "treason" - that's what Brennan said, and assuming he's got some basic familiarity with the English language, that's what he meant. It's deranged, and it shows clearly the mindset of this bitter Deep State hack. The intelligence agencies in Washington are apparently infested with these kinds of cancers.

Mullah Brennan will not await his sentence for treason and walk meekly to the gallows. A radical joiner like John Brennan - a Communist in his youth and a Muslim convert in his later years - will more likely opt for a bullet or an explosive vest. The man looks terrified.
