Obama appointee and former CIA director John Brennan is the target of a perjury investigation by the House Intelligence Committee.
Chairman Devin Nunes is turning his attention to the role the CIA played in promoting the Steele dossier.
Brennan said under oath that he didn't know who commissioned the dossier and that it was not used to conclude that Russia had meddled in the 2016 presidential campaign.
Brennan also swore that he did not know who commissioned the anti-Trump research document, even though senior national security and counterintelligence officials at the Justice Department and FBI knew the previous year that the dossier was funded by the Hillary Clinton campaign.
Last week, Nunes released a declassified memo exposing surveillance "abuses" by the Obama DOJ and FBI in investigating Trump's ties to Russia. It said the agencies relied heavily on the uncorroborated dossier to take out a warrant to secretly surveil a Trump adviser in the heat of the 2016 presidential election, even though they were aware the underlying "intelligence" supporting the wiretap order was political opposition research funded by Clinton allies a material fact they concealed from FISA court judges in four separate applications.
Nunes plans to soon release a separate report detailing the Obama State Department's role in creating and disseminating the dossier. Among other things, the report will identify Obama-appointed diplomats who worked with partisan operatives close to Hillary Clinton to help ex-British spy Christopher Steele compile the dossier, sources say.
An aide, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, said Nunes will focus on Brennan as well as President Obama's first CIA director, Leon Panetta, along with the former president's intelligence czar, James Clapper, and national security adviser, Susan Rice, and security adviser-turned U.N. ambassador Samantha Power, among other intelligence officials.

Prediction: When McCain finally dies, we will then discover that he was behind ALL of it. Everyone else will be pointing the finger at McCain, claiming they got the info from him, etc., etc.
First thing that came to my mind reading that article is that Bill Priestap talked.
Praying so.
Nunes is dragging everyone and everything behind him to get this done.
He’s swinging a big pair, that guy.
Hope he has great security.
I was wondering why Panetta was speaking out this week. Leon wants that insurance policy to remain in place.
Panetta: Trump will do damage if he fires Rosenstein and Mueller
Brennan is going to use the taqiyya defence !
Clapper couldn’t run a sari-sari. Brennan, Comey, McCabe and Mueller are trusted lieutenants. Obama was primarily a mouthpiece. Two gangs: The Chicago Combine, and the Dixie Mafia, plus the Permanent Deep State.
I AGREE! Hussein Obama should be investigated for being a Muslim terrorist.
Maybe Brennan better watch his back.
And they still lost. All that money down the drain. No wonder they’re having trouble fund-raising.
That would be anti-Muslim.
The day will come when you don’t feel so good about your comments here.
Sessions is doing his job. You be careful what you say.
Sessions needs to go. Even Congress has had enough.
He’s awful.
Yep.
The Dead man tells no tells.
Reminds me of a scene in the movie Shindlers List where the Germans
lined up and demanded to know something.
The German threatened to shoot a Jew if that information was not given.
The line of Jews remained silent.
Then a German randomly shot a Jew.
And asked again who had the information.
All the Jews in the line pointed to the dead Jew who
had been shot.
So, it is likely that all fingers will point to a dead McCain too.

Ping to Brennan being investigated for perjury.
Leon Panetta, James Clapper, Susan Rice and Samantha Power also being investigated ...

Nunes...doing the dirty job that Sessions and Wray refuse or are
incapable of doing.
Exactly. As Newt said (paraphrasing), “Sessions wanted the title but not the job.”
I think the slow roll of information is helpful and necessary.
Hopefully, Sessions will be ready to pounce once the investigations are finished.
This guy lays it out here: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/962513736727658496.html
What the article says is possible.
But DOJ or FBI are not coducting investigations into Brennan’s role
It is the IG, Nunes and Grassley.
Sessions and Wray are not recused from investigating Brennan,
The Muslim. At what point does the DOJ and FBI start doing
their own investigations?
What is the purpose of having a DOJ and FBI if these agencies
sit idle while the IG, Nunes and Grassley do all the heavy lifting.
