John Brennan Breaks Silence After FBI Launches Criminal Probe — Claims Investigations Are “Made Up Out of Whole Cloth”
Gateway Pundit ^ | July 9, 2025 | Jim Hoft

Former CIA Director John Brennan has finally broken his silence after news broke that he is under criminal investigation by the FBI for his misconduct during the Trump–Russia probe — and his response was as arrogant and evasive as ever.

In a softball interview with MSNBC, Brennan dismissed the criminal referral as politically motivated fiction, refusing to take any responsibility for his role in promoting what turned out to be one of the biggest political hoaxes in American history.

The disgraced ex-CIA chief then doubled down on the thoroughly debunked narrative that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump — parroting talking points from the Mueller witch hunt and Durham’s limited probe as if they somehow exonerate him.

“I think the SSCI report, the Mueller investigation, the Durham investigation and review — all of this, I think, validates what happened in terms of Russian interference: the conclusions of that assessment that Russia tried to enhance Donald Trump’s prospects in that election, to damage Hillary Clinton, and to undermine the integrity of our election process.

“Those have really stood up and have been validated and supported by subsequent, very thorough reviews,” Brennan claimed, ignoring the fact that none of these reports recommended prosecution of Trump — but several revealed stunning misconduct within the intelligence community, including Brennan’s own agency.

Brennan then lashed out at CIA Director John Ratcliffe, who helped trigger the criminal referral to the FBI, accusing him of lacking “dignity” and spreading “allegations that have no evidentiary basis whatsoever."

Remember this is the guy who made Obama’s passport records disappear when he ran in 2008.

A lawyerly answer with no real meaning in any legal context.
