Former CIA Director John Brennan and former DNI James Clapper blasted President Trump on Friday night for directing Attorney General William Barr to declassify documents related to the surveillance of his campaign during the 2016 election, calling it "outrageous."
"I see it as a very, very serious and outrageous move on the part of Mr. Trump, once again, trampling on the statutory authorities of the Director of National Intelligence and the heads of the independent intelligence agencies," Brennan told MSNBC host Chris Hayes. "And it's unclear to me what Mr. Barr is actually going to do. Is he investigating a crime? Well, what's the predication of that crime? Or he is just going to be looking for information... that Mr. Trump can just give to his defenders on the right and cherry-pick information that could be taken out of context?"
Brennan expressed concern about exposing "sources and methods" as well as the intelligence of "partners abroad."
"This is very serious and I know that my former colleagues in the intelligence agencies are looking upon this with great concern and worry," the former top Obama official stated.
He later said he hopes that DNI Dan Coats and CIA Director Gina Haspel will "stand up" to President Trump's "unprecedented act."
Brennan slammed President Trump on Twitter after the president shared a political cartoon mocking the former CIA Director, former DNI Clapper, and FBI Director James Comey.
"Young people everywhere: Please do not emulate Mr. Trump’s very immature behavior. Find others of honesty, integrity, & decency to be your role models," the MSNBC analyst tweeted. "And always try to do what you know is the right thing, even when doing what is right is both unpopular & difficult."

Would those be the “sources and methods” used to spy against US citizens they are concerned abut exposing???
One would almost think Democrats we’re engaged in a “cover up”.
They have nothing to worry about. Federal judges will halt the investigation.
I said on another forum that these guys are all screeching, “Get that f*&king light out of my eyes!”
They could all be innocent (they are not) and it is still fun to watch.
They know what is coming.
The purge of facebutt and all the others is an early sign.
Brennan needs some of Claude Cooper’s clean, copped copper clappers up his rectum.
Wow, what an emotional reaction! It’s almost as if they were personally invested in the outcome.
They are scared poopless....LOL
I want to see pre-dawn raids on Comey, Clapper and Brennan’s houses and watch them all frog marched in handcuffs in front of the cameras.
They know what is coming.
**************
They have a good idea of what’s coming but you can tell that Barr’s apparent determination is unnerving them. And they don’t know who’s talking. They have a lot to worry about.
Makes you wonder what they will do when the worm finally turns and their fate becomes more evident. Lots of drama to come.
“”I see it as a very, very serious and outrageous move on the part of Mr. Trump...”
That’s President Trump, ***hole.

Karma is preparing a SWAT team for dem be-otches.
Brennan and Clapper hanging in a tree
T-R-E-A-S-O-N
First comes the trial
Then comes the noose
Then comes Hillary in a baby carriage
Yeah....I know.....it doesn’t rhyme....
In this one the projection heavy is.
they tried to destroy the king and failed- now they are shaking in their boots
Capone hated cops too.
What are Brennan, Clapper and Comey hiding?
They all protest too much.
