The federal prosecutor investigating the origins of the Russia inquiry is examining testimony by the former C.I.A. director John Brennan and seeking his communications records.
The federal prosecutor scrutinizing the Russia investigation has begun examining the role of the former C.I.A. director John O. Brennan in how the intelligence community assessed Russias 2016 election interference, according to three people briefed on the inquiry.
John H. Durham, the United States attorney leading the investigation, has requested Mr. Brennans emails, call logs and other documents from the C.I.A., according to a person briefed on his inquiry. He wants to learn what Mr. Brennan told other officials, including the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey, about his and the C.I.A.s views of a notorious dossier of assertions about Russia and Trump associates.
Mr. Durhams pursuit of Mr. Brennans records is certain to add to accusations that Mr. Trump is using the Justice Department to go after his perceived enemies. The president has long attacked Mr. Brennan as part of his narrative about a so-called deep state cabal of Obama administration officials who tried to sabotage his campaign, and Mr. Trump has held out Mr. Durhams investigation as a potential avenue for proving those claims.
Mr. Durham is also examining whether Mr. Brennan privately contradicted his public comments, including May 2017 testimony to Congress, about both the dossier and about any debate among the intelligence agencies over their conclusions on Russias interference, the people said.

Commie Brennan is right at the top of my list for wanting to go down hard. But it changes every week as there are so many deserving of Supermax Fed Penitentiary.
In hindsight, I'd say this was possibly a coverup and that they had already been sharing plenty of information which was not allowed.
Remember the Gorelick wall?
“NYT, once again doing its best to warn the criminals. tic-tic-tic ...”
NYT makes up the news. They are staying the obvious with in all likelihood no inside info.
So who from the CIA is snitching to the press that Durham’s been gathering info from the agency? It’s got to be someone who was close to Brennan...Eric Ciaramella? He’s still working there isn’t he? Or another one of Brennan’s lackeys?
IIRC, Brennan and Comey had a conversation about the Dossier BEFORE Comey met with Trump with info on the dossier.
“Durham is just now realizing he needs to talk to Brennan? That is not good.”
Your believing the NYT isnot good.
“stating”
After BHusseinOsama, Brennan is the primary perp. (Clapper is to dumb)
I believe in President Trump and his fight for us. He never walks away from a fight. At the end of the day, the whole cabal will be taken down due to the personality of our great President. It will take the famous line, Your fired to a new level. Enjoy the show.
LOL. Good point.
too
could we make sure that his new “friend” uses a pork sausage roll somewhere during his shower after he drops the soap? LOL
Brennan on deck.
“Mr. Durhams pursuit of Mr. Brennans records is certain to add to accusations that Mr. Trump is using the Justice Department to go after his perceived enemies.”
Mr. Brennan should welcome being investigated, if he has nothing to hide.
It’s UNREAL isn’t it.
Do you think the NYT will EVER just report the TRUTH??
What’s the Einstein quote that doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.
THE RESULT OF THIS GARBAGE IS THE SAME. PEOPLE DESPISE AND DO NOT BELIEVE THE NEW YORK TIMES.....after trying and trying.
Now there’s somebody who deserves a trial for treason and a rope dance.
So who from the CIA is snitching to the press that Durhams been gathering info from the agency? Its got to be someone who was close to Brennan...Eric Ciaramella? Hes still working there isnt he? Or another one of Brennans lackeys?
Haspel has been just as bad if not worse than Wray. How many more coupist CIA spies does she have in the Trump White House? Long past due for her to testify in public in the GOP controlled Senate.
“This is what we call “narrative engineering”
Great description. The Grey Narrative Engineer Lady. Schools of Journalism should really be under the jurisdiction of the engineering department along with civil, electrical and nuclear engineering. Their Narrative Engineering degree would be appropriately named a BS degree..
Without the paywall...
Slopehead needs to put up some guttering on his brows. I predict he’s gonna’ be sweating bullets in the near future.
