Former CIA Director John Brennan responds to accusations of a treasonous conspiracy to commit a soft coup" against Donald Trump from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard:
FORMER CIA DIRECTOR JOHN BRENNAN: Here we are again, Nicole. It is unsurprising, very troubling, and very dangerous. As Representative Haines said, the person who leads our intelligence community today would put out something like this that just mischaracterizes and misrepresents, in a wholesale manner, what the intelligence community did during the 2016 run-up to the presidential election. Again, the misrepresentations just are ludicrous. When I read through the material, it reminded me of sort of a third-rate lawyer who realizes she has nothing to defend her client and is going to put together an absurd brief that’s laughable on its face. Anybody who looks at the intelligence community assessment and the work that was done will see that it was very carefully worded, meticulously done, and it stands up to scrutiny. In time, as you pointed out, there have been numerous reviews about it, and it didn’t say any of the things that Tulsi Gabbard alleges it said or didn’t say. I really do encourage people to read it because it was very clear in terms of what it said: that the Russians were using, at President Putin’s direction, influence operations to try to denigrate Hillary Clinton, to try to increase the prospects for Donald Trump’s election, and also just to undermine the integrity of our election system. Those were the primary judgments, and they are ones that certainly I and others who are involved continue to stand behind.
NICOLE WALLACE, MSNBC: I guess, importantly, they’re also corroborated by Trump 2.0 CIA Director John Ratcliffe, who, in the same document in which he...

Well then, I guess he’ll be suing her for libel.
Hopefully Brennan won’t mind sitting in a jail for years until is case comes to trial.

Translation: you’re 100% right we did it. Good luck getting a jury of 12 Americans to agree on that.
Well of course NOT in a DemocRAT run court!! ...imho
LiarBoy is lying to Nicolle “MSNBC Whore” Wallace...
The islamic convert isn’t scared. Will the GOP do anything about it? Will the DOJ actually do anything? Brennan is confident they will not.
BRENNAN: We own the judges.
Let’s go to court and find out.
His credibility will go into the bin regardless.
Brennan was part of the whole thing..This was always Obama’s “Plan B” in case Trump won..did anyone actually think that Obama was going to sit back and allow Trump to destroy his plan to “Fundamentally transform America” of course not. Obama hated Clinton, but he also knew her in power would allow him to finish America off
Let the jury decide.
Military tribunal. It’s the only way.
“Laughable” has no lawful meaning. He chose that word on purpose. It’s meant to telegraph to the leftist base that they must go after Trump. How about we go by what the evidence shows? They don’t find that so laughable.
That's the wrong question. The correct question is, will Trump do anything about it?
Oh look
John whistling in the grave yard.
Better hit the Wahhabi 12er prayer rug muzzie, and good luck getting your moon God alah to save you, cuz your ass is grass.
You are going down.
Prison at best.
Gallows at worst.
“Good luck getting a jury of 12 Americans to agree on that.”
More like, “Good luck getting a jury of 12 DC libs to agree on that.”
I’m encouraged that Pirro is U.S. Attorney in DC.
Where was Brennan’s primary residence when this was going on? Maybe that state would be more tough on him.
Military tribunal. It’s the only way.
><
YES!!! At GITMO.
First step is to laugh at the accusations.
He’s playing the broken Robot-
and that’s why he’ll get caught.
In time, his arrogance will explode, and sink him.
and they will let it happen, as the sacrificial lamb.
