House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes is planning to investigate whether one-time CIA Director John Brennan played a role in promoting the controversial and unverified dossier on Donald Trump, RealClear Investigations is reporting.
Word of the congressman's new probe comes after the release of a Nunes' memo alleging surveillance abuses by the FBI.
Brennan, in an interview on NBC News' "Meet The Press," lashed out at Nunes, saying he "abused the office of chairmanship" with the memo.
According to RealClear Investigations, Nunes will soon release a separate report detailing the role of the State Department under President Barack Obama in creating and disseminating the controversial dossier.
The website claimed the report will identify diplomats who worked with those close to Hillary Clinton to help ex-British spy Christopher Steele put together the disputed dossier.
"Those are the first two phases" of Nunes' multipart inquiry, a senior investigator said. "In Phase 3, the involvement of the intelligence community will come into sharper focus."
The unidentified aide said Nunes will focus on Brennan, former CIA Director Leon Panetta, Obama's intelligence chief, James Clapper and former National Security Adviser Susan Rice, among other intelligence officials.
"John Brennan did more than anyone to promulgate the dirty dossier," the investigator said. "He politicized and effectively weaponized what was false intelligence against Trump."

Excellent. He and Clapper need some scrutinizing.
Yeah, that makes sense too.
They've got six ways from Sunday, you know.
When will Jeff Sessions emerge and frog-march McNasty to jail?
Brennan is one of the Swamp’s dirtiest denizens. It is high time that the spotlight was shined his way.
They are afraid to start pulling at strings of the Kenyanesian Usurpation lest it all unravels and exposes their own culpability in the violation of the Constitution.
Hopefully everyone at DOJ and FBI are having sleepless nights and I PRAY that soon, one of them decides the others ain’t worth going down for.....
I bet this Muslim was chest deep.
Nunes must have informants.
Bttt.

I hope Nunes has a good security team. He’s doing a fantastic job but he’s sailing into waters with lots of big hungry sharks.
Cruz and Rubio are jokes.
Why did jOkeass not spend his last month issuing pardons?
Just think, if Hillary had won, none of this would be seeing the light of day. Thank God for DJT, patriot and servant of the people.
Therein lies the unhinged hate/fear of Trump. They are cornered rats and many crimes are being exposed. Hope all involved go to jail for a very long time.
“Nunes is a courageous man and is doing a good job.”
Despite all the California dislike expressed on this forum, people should know/understand that Nunes is a typical “native” Californian of the type that elected Regan as Governor twice and as President twice. That California has been overrun by illegals and corrupted by emigrants like Nancy Pelosi doesn’t mean that natives like Nunes don’t still exist.
Of note, Nunes represents the district that Free Republic is located in!
Nice to know.

all of us.
