Facing Durham interview, John Brennan lashes out over Trump-Russia ‘collusion’
(Worthy News) -Former CIA Director John Brennan fumed about the announcement that the Senate Intelligence Committee found no evidence of collusion between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia.
Brennan, who has said he is in the “crosshairs” of U.S. Attorney John Durham’s criminal inquiry into the Russia investigation, condemned a tweet by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio that stressed the bipartisan investigation found “troubling actions by the FBI, particularly their willingness to rely on” British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s anti-Trump dossier.
“You are dead wrong, Senator. The report shows extensive evidence of collusion between the Trump Campaign & the Russians. Read the report,” Brennan tweeted. “Criticizing FBI investigative efforts while ignoring the political corruption of Donald Trump & his cronies is shameful.”
The report, like special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, did not conclude there was a coordinated criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin, but Democrats on the intelligence panel broke with Rubio, the acting chairman, to argue that the web of contacts between people in President Trump’s circle and Russians shows “what collusion looks like.” [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
