The sad legacy of John Brennan: from CIA Director to Russian useful idiot.

John Brennan was nominated to be Director of the CIA by Barack Obama and served as Director from March 2013 to January 2017. Here is a list of former Directors of the CIA. Only a few have been actively political following their tenures, but none has been as rabidly vocal and anti-Trump as John Brennan.

John Brennan has been prognosticating no end over the last two years and has made some pretty serious accusations.

On more than one occasion Brennan called Trump "treasonous."

Former CIA director John Brennan blasted President Donald Trump's press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin Monday as 'nothing short of treasonous.'

He also accused the president of being 'wholly in the pocket of Putin.'

'Donald Trump's press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of 'high crimes & misdemeanors.' It was nothing short of treasonous. Not only were Trump's comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???,' tweeted Brennan, who served as the nation's intelligence chief from March 2013 to January 2017 under then-President Barack Obama.

A month later he sort of backtracked, saying that when he said Trump was treasonous he didn't exactly mean treason:
"And for Mr. Trump to so cavalierly just dismiss that, yes, sometimes my Irish comes out, and — in my tweets, and I did say that it rises to and exceeds the level of high crimes and misdemeanors and is nothing short of treasonous. … I didn’t mean that he committed treason, but it was a term that I used, nothing short of treasonous.”
Then two days later he spun himself around again:

In an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press," Brennan reaffirmed his most inflammatory accusation against the president.

"I called his behavior treasonous. I stand very much by that claim," he said. "These are abnormal times ... I have seen the signs blinking red on what Mr. Trump has done and is doing."

He had gotten his tighty whities in a twist when Trump stripped him of his security clearance.

Former CIA chief John Brennan doubled down Sunday on his charge that Donald Trump has engaged in "treasonous" behavior and called on Congress to block the US president's attempts to strip other intelligence officials of their security clearances.

Brennan has received an outpouring of support from former top-ranking intelligence officers -- but not much from Republican lawmakers -- since Trump revoked his top secret security clearance last week in retaliation for what the president called "unfounded and outrageous allegations."

Let's mark "unfounded and outrageous allegations."

Since then it's been a litany of name calling and allegations.
