. Attorney John Durham intends to interview former CIA Director John Brennan as part of his investigation into U.S. intelligence agencies’ activities in the Trump-Russia probe, according to NBC News.
Brennan told NBC News, where he is an analyst, that both he and James Clapper, the former director of national intelligence, are sought for interviews with Durham’s investigators. The interviews, should they occur, would signal that Durham is expanding his investigation.
Attorney General William Barr appointed Durham to oversee an inquiry into U.S. agencies’ Trump-related intelligence-gathering activities earlier this year. Barr said he was not satisfied with official explanations about the origins of the investigation into possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russian government.
The FBI opened an investigation on July 31, 2016 into whether Trump associates were colluding with the Russian government to influence the 2016 election. The special counsel’s investigation found no evidence of a conspiracy or that any Trump associates acted as agents of Russia.
But Brennan, a staunch critic of President Donald Trump and Barr, has fiercely defended the investigation of the Trump campaign. He is also questioning the legal basis for the Durham probe, which he called “bizarre.”
“I don’t know what the legal basis for this is,” he told NBC News.
“I’m very comfortable with everything I was involved in,” he added.
Barr has said little in public about the investigation, but it reportedly centers on FBI and CIA activities before and during the Trump-Russia collusion investigation. Durham is also reportedly looking into what involvement foreign governments might have had in intelligence-gathering against Trump associates.
The Durham probe has picked up steam in recent weeks, with Barr and Durham visiting Italy in September, reportedly to collect information about Joseph Mifsud, a Maltese professor who had contacts with former Trump adviser George Papadopoulos.

Put them under oath and on TV... Let the country know the kind of crap we had running the CIA
Durham is NOT the type of prosecutor that is a camera hog, he will get to the truth he ALREADY has the truth, he is now going in for the KILL with Clapper and Brennan these are the last two to be interviewed, he is VERY CLOSE to closing his investigation!!! These two BASTARDS will both end up with severe cases of dementia just wait and see!!!
Perhaps McCabe is cooperating thus no indictment YET perhaps he made a deal I believe Clapper and Brennan will be last interviewed Durham builds his case against them FIRST then goes in for the KILL!!! Clapper is a weak POS and will throw Obama under the bus, he was just following orders BLA, BLA, BLA absolutely NOTHING will happen to Obama HOWEVER will it be made public, that is the question!!! Will these asshats think that bringing this coup out to the public will be BAD for the country, I say NOTHING could be worse than what the hell the country is going through now!!!
“What will he do when they refuse to cooperate?”
I think Durham is the real thing, if he’s anything like he looks in his pictures. He can indict...and just may do that with these clowns.
