Attkisson: CIA Under John Brennan Spied on Intel Whistleblowers, Congress

Investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson writes in the Hill that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has been using its surveillance on American citizens “for the better part of two decades, if not longer.”

“Maybe you once thought the CIA wasn’t supposed to spy on Americans here in the United States,” said the Emmy-winning investigative journalist. “That concept is so yesteryear.” She points to newly declassified 2014 documents which “reveal the CIA not only intercepted emails of U.S. citizens, but they were emails of the most sensitive kind,” namely about whistleblowers:

The disclosures, kept secret until now, are two letters of “congressional notification” from the Intelligence Community inspector general at the time, Charles McCullough. He stated that during “routine counterintelligence monitoring of government computer systems,” the CIA collected emails between congressional staff and the CIA’s head of whistleblowing and source protection.

It is the intelligence community’s duty to keep the President informed of threats to the nation. The Bamster is neck deep in allowing illegal surveillance of American Citizens.

After today’s win, I expect PDJT to pull the plug on The Swamp. He has the power to do to the rats what they want to do to him, utterly destroy them for a generation.

John Brennan’s a bad person...
