Obama's CIA boss hints at Russia collusion
WND ^ | 05/23/2017 | Bob Unruh

Brennan, who previously lied under oath to Congress, bemoans Moscow's 'brazen' attempts to influence election!

Former CIA Director John Brennan told a U.S. House committee Tuesday that Russia was “brazen” in its attempts to influence the 2016 presidential election in the United States, and while he was unable to determine whether there was “collusion” between the Russians and members of the Trump presidential campaign, he was “aware of information and intelligence that revealed contacts and interactions between Russian officials and U.S. persons involved in the Trump campaign.”

He was convinced, he explained to members of Congress, those indicators were “worthy” of a formal investigation.

However, neither Brennan nor the House Intelligence committee discussed accusations that he, himself, had colluded with Russia on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

Nor was his admission to having voted for a Communist Party candidate in the 1976 election ever mentioned.

Nor was the fact a 2012 WikiLeaks email dump pointed to him “as the person behind the ‘witch hunt’ of journalists who reported unflattering Obama administration leaks.”

Nor was his refusal to use a Bible, as tradition prescribes, when he was sworn into office.

Nor was his graduate thesis in which he denied the existence of “absolute human rights” and said government censorship of speech was an appropriate management tool.

Nor was his insistence that people not use the word “jihadist” to describe terrorists.

Nor was his lying to Congress.

If you are a Muslim, telling a lie for the furtherance of your ideology is a matter of allegiance. So is selling your mother to the slave market.

I think you are right. They are both weasels (in slightly different ways) and both assumed they are above the law.

That guy said nothing today. Nothing at all to prove any conspiracy theory.

Gowdy kept on drilling him on that answer. He asked him that there are 3 tiers of the campaign - Trump, Trumps immediate staff, and then those that claim to have a connection to the campaign. Which tier are you referring to when you say US persons? He would not answer. This "persons involved in the Trump campaign" can be someone that printed signs for a local rally for all we know.

Didn't Brennan admit to giving classified information to the Russians? But "he did it the right way" - turned around three times, said his mother's name backwards and threw a blue marble over his left shoulder. Guess that BS makes him innocent.

Innuendo is what creates #FAKENEWS. Add Mr. Sources and you have a complete media outlet like CNN, Wapo, NYT, etc.

The guy is a Muslim. Muslims, under certain circumstances, can lie as part of their "religion:"

Where in the statutes is collusion identified as a crime?

John Brennan needs to do the perp walk...

Who told Brennan to look for this? Susan Rice, JarJar Val?
