Ex-CIA head Brennan on Trump attacks: I may have relied on ‘bad information’

Former head of the CIA John Brennan admitted on Monday that he may have relied on “bad information” for his relentless attacks on President Trump.

Brennan — who once warned that “our Nation’s future is at stake” — told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that he may have been misled on the extent of Trump’s connections to Russia.

“Well, I don’t know if I received bad information but I think I suspected there was more than there actually was,” Brennan said. “I am relieved that it’s been determined there was not a criminal conspiracy with the Russian government over our election.”

The former spy chief was reacting to a summary report by Attorney General William Barr released on Saturday that states there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Brennan still maintained that there were inappropriate attempts to communicate with the Kremlin but said he was “not all that surprised that the high bar of criminal conspiracy was not met.”

He reminds me of the concentration camp guards who claimed they were just following orders.

I’ve seen this episode.

Uncle Junior’s hit attempt on Tony using Boys 2 Men failed and he rushes to see him, showing immense “concern” for his well being.

too late is right.

I hope Trump goes Soprano on you and the rest of the traitors.

“Brennan still maintained that there were inappropriate attempts to communicate with the Kremlin ...”

He’s still making up stuff.

He probably needs to go to prison for his role.

every day he and Hasan breathe, Americans lose
respect for the DO”J” which supports treason,
sedition, criminal behavior AND ITS COVERUP
from the streets to the US Supreme court,
instead of Law and the Constitution.

It is beyond time for decimation, Mr. President.

It is too late. But this does make him less disgusting of a swamp creature for at least having offered that he was wrong and so quickly. Who knows what his motivations are. You won’t get this out of maybe 95 percent of the taking heads out there in a million years.

Too little, too late. It should serve notice to others that maybe they too should admit their error. All have damaged, even destroyed their reputation and credibility. Ignoring it will only make that more confirmed.
