Obama-era CIA Director John Brennan referred to DOJ for criminal prosecution

Rep. Jim Jordan, GOP Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, has referred former President Barack Obama’s CIA Director John Brennan to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution — accusing him of knowingly making false statements to Congress during a 2023 transcribed interview.

That would be in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1001, a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and fines.

On Tuesday, in a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, Jordan (R-Ohio) wrote that the former CIA director “knowingly made false statements during his transcribed interview” with the panel back in May 2023 in relation to the department’s involvement with the Steele dossier.

Brennan falsely claimed that the CIA opposed including the discredited Steele dossier in the 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), denying any reliance on it. However, evidence suggests otherwise, as a CIA officer reportedly drafted an annex using a dossier summary, overriding objections from senior CIA officials.

This is significant since, in 2016, while Brennan was leading the CIA, he played a role in decisions regarding whether intelligence from the Steele dossier should be incorporated into the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russian interference.

“Brennan’s assertion that the CIA was not ‘involved at all’ with the Steele dossier cannot be reconciled with the facts,” Jordan wrote in the letter to Bondi. “Brennan’s testimony … was a brazen attempt to knowingly and willfully testify falsely and fictitiously to material facts.”

“Making false statements before Congress is a crime that undermines the integrity of the Committee’s constitutional duty to conduct oversight.”

Jordan further emphasized that “Brennan made the ultimate decision, along with then-FBI Director James Comey, to include information from the dossier in the ICA.”

That smug scowl on his face says it all...

If there is not a SWAT raid and naked perp walk then there is no justice.

RUH RHO!

Isn’t this the swamp creature that said he investigated himself and found no wrong doing?

He needs 10 years added just for that!

Well, not just Brennan, but hopefully he’ll rollover and finger Obama.

In a perfect world TWO faced Pence would have been referred along with Brennan referral .... Judas Pence is NO better than the Mohammad Brennan ... Judas Pence is so the same as the devil’s handmaiden...

I have NOT read that Brennan reaped an eleven dollar mansion .. for the art of sleeping with the devil.

Agree.

Still two tiered justice system.
They go easy on Comey and Brennan but give kidney punches with telescoping tactical batons to our guys.

And what’s with letting the loathsome cretin Comey waltz in like an emperor instead of having his and his wife’s belongings tossed onto the floor in the middle of the night in a televised raid to make him look bad?

Every single thing not done to Comey and Brennan will end up causing them suffering later. By Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Law of Compensation.
