Notice Brennan says “MR Trump” and not President Trump.

Yeeesh, John, mellow out - with good behavior, they might allow prayer rugs in Supermax.

Russian spy Newsweek warned about was actually working with the Dems to help Hillary and hurt Trump!

... appears to give [Attorney General William] Barr the unilateral authority to declassify...”

This is going to be their narrative going forward - that this is a violation because only the POTUS and Intelligence Chief have the authority to declassify.

But it is a superfluous argument: Sure, instead of giving Barr carte blanc, POTUS could have followed ‘the letter of the law’ by declassifying documents himself, one by one, at Barr’s specific request. But does anyone expect a POTUS to be familiar with the specific documents - he is going to rely on someone to give him council on this - typically the Intelligence Chief, Dan Coates.

So, what this really signals is that POTUS trusts his AG, Bill Barr, and not his Intelligence Chief, Dan Coates.

By the way, some suspect Intelligence Chief Dan Coates has been the leaker/resister/traitor in the White House all along, which makes this little turf war very interesting.

“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?“

Predication? I had to look that up. I wasn't’t sure sure what it exactly means in this context.

Now I know. This from Merriam-Webster:

Examples of predication in a Sentence - Recent Examples on the Web

“But there’s documentation in criminal investigations and in counterintelligence investigations to explain the predication for the opening of a file, that is, the basis for the opening of a file.”
— James Freeman, WSJ, “The Unbelievable James Comey,” 10 Dec. 2018

I think Brennan asked a question where he has better knowledge of the correct answer than anyone on earth. He is the foremost expert on that subject.

John “Black Helicopter” Brennan.

"Well, I see it as a very, very serious and outrageous move on the part of Mr. Trump[Congress], once again, trampling on the statutory authorities of the Director of National Intelligence and the heads of the independent intelligence agencies. And it's unclear to me what Mr. Barr[Mueller] is actually going to do. Is he investigating a crime? Well, what's the predication of that crime? Or is he just going to be looking for information?" Brennan asked.

Where were you a couple of years ago?

[Georgia Girl 2]

Because Brennan is guilty of treason.

Hey Johnny …...Trump is their BOSS.....and we are coming for YOU!

[monkeyshine]

Well, what's the predication of that crime?

Brennan asks the predication for investigating the predication of the previous investigation. LOL. Again nothing but pure projection from those who colluded. The predication is perjury, obstruction of justice, abuse of power, conspiracy, leaking of classified information, conspiracy, conspiracy against the United States... just for starters.

The MSM spins and obfuscates but slowly they are coming around. This is something they just can't avoid reporting. They report it just by trying to spin and deflect and mock. The one thing they can't do is ignore it.

Brennan: Blah, blah, blah, blah...…..

How many Blahs can one person utter.
How many people will BELIEVE him?
