In a letter to President Trump last week, current HPSCI Chair Rick Crawford noted there was a strong public interest in the report being declassified.A still-classified staff report compiled by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) found the John Brennan-led 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment (“ICA”) on Russian Election Interference significantly worse and significantly more corrupt than conveyed in the memorandum released last week by CIA Director John Ratcliffe, according to sources familiar with the report. The HPSCI staff report also reveals more details of the corruption, the sources told The Federalist.Revelations that the ICA crafted by Brennan was...

Former CIA top dog John Brennan is the poster child for the catastrophically widespread corruption of our intelligence apparatus, or at least of our intelligence apparatus before Donald Trump became president again. If this were indeed a land of impartial justice, and not one in which the prosecution of high-profile leftists would bring so much hysteria that Trump is a fascist dictator-in-the-making, that the firestorm could interfere with the implementation of his agenda, Brennan would be in prison today. That is the assessment of one of his former employees at the CIA, Bryan Dean Wright. Wright wrote in Fox News...

A bombshell new CIA review of the Obama administration’s spy agencies assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to help Donald Trump was deliberately corrupted by then-CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director James Comey, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, who were “excessively involved” in its drafting, and rushed its completion in a “chaotic,” “atypical” and “markedly unconventional” process which raised questions of a “potential political motive.” Further, Brennan’s decision to include the discredited Steele Dossier, against the objections of the CIA’s most senior Russia experts, “undermined the credibility” of the assessment. The “Tradecraft Review of the...

A "lessons learned" review by John Ratliffe's CIA finds multiple problems with the U.S. intelligence community's assessment on the 2016 election, including related to the inclusion of the discredited Steele Dossier and the conclusions on Putin's motives. CIA Director John Ratcliffe has released a scathing review of the U.S. intelligence community’s assessment of Russian influence in the 2016 election, criticizing then-CIA Director John Brennan for joining the FBI in pushing to include British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s baseless anti-Trump dossier.In the review, released Tuesday, Ratcliffe also critiqued the CIA and FBI's “high confidence” assessment that Russian leader Vladimir Putin had “aspired”...

Former CIA Director John Brennan said Friday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that former FBI Director James Comey was not advocating violence with his social media post about President Donald Trump that featured a photo of seashells arranged to read, “86 47.” Brennan said, “It’s unsurprising that someone like Tulsi Gabbard would say something like that, but there’s absolutely no basis or reason for a director of National Intelligence to comment at all on this matter, much less say that a former director of the FBI should be in prison. I know Jim Comey worked very closely with him, didn’t always agree...

On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, former CIA Director and current MSNBC analyst John Brennan claimed it was "absurd" to suggest that President Trump fired C.Q. Brown, who Biden had appointed Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, because he had a woke agenda.Absurd? Really? Brown posted a video: "I'll lead conversations on racism, diversity, and inclusion." Signed Memo ordering quotas reducing the percentage of whites in the Air Force. Said, "I hire for diversity." Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

It was my first time voting in a presidential election, and, while only twenty-one years old, I was already disenchanted with the state of partisan politics in America. Entering the voting booth I had no idea for whom I was going to cast my vote, but I was thrilled at the opportunity to exercise my newfound citizenship privilege. I scanned the seven names listed and stopped at the Communist Party candidate, Gus Hall. I was vaguely familiar with the name but knew nothing about him. I pulled the lever on my protest vote and became one of the 58,709 Americans...

James O’Keefe last Friday warned he was about to release the most important story of his entire career. “I have evidence that exposes the CIA, and it’s on camera. I am working on releasing a story that I believe is the most important of my entire career,” O’Keefe said on Friday. “Do you think it’s a coincidence that right at this moment I am subject to an endless series of attacks?” he said. “This is obviously a sophisticated information operation designed to stop me from releasing this story. I’m sure you recognize they are masters of using half-truths and innuendos...

The Justice Department’s assertions this week that a longtime FBI informant was seeking to “spread misinformation” designed to hurt President Joe Biden after speaking to Russian intelligence operatives has put a new spotlight on an old debate: To what extent, if any, has the Russian government manufactured or amplified unproven allegations of corrupt Ukraine dealings by Joe and Hunter Biden? In a request to revoke his bail, prosecutors said that former informant Alexander Smirnov, charged last week with lying to the FBI in 2020 when he said Joe Biden had received a $5 million bribe, “is actively peddling new lies...

The Russian collusion hoax just continues to get worse.On Thursday, we learned of the existence of evidence that the Obama administration recruited the intelligence services of foreign allies to illegally spy on 26 associates of Donald Trump before the FBI launched its counterintelligence probe in the summer of 2016, as well as the fact that the Biden administration was likely after a binder containing evidence of the CIA's efforts to spy on Donald, Trump and interfere in the 2016 election when it raided his Mar-a-Lago home.AdvertisementOn Friday, Public and Racket revealed evidence that the Obama administration cooked intelligence from the...

The CIA ‘illegally mobilized foreign intelligence agencies to target Trump advisors long before the summer of 2016.’ The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) set off the Russian collusion hoax in 2016 when U.S. intelligence officials recruited foreign governments to spy on Democrats’ American political opponents. On Tuesday, Substack publications Public and Racket revealed new details about the origins of the Spygate hoax the U.S. federal government perpetrated on the Donald Trump presidential campaign. “Multiple credible sources tell Public and Racket that the United States Intelligence Community (IC), including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), illegally mobilized foreign intelligence agencies to target Trump...
