John Brennan Fires Warning Shot to Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell After POTUS Orders DOJ to Investigate FBI's Campaign Infiltration
2018-05-21
Additional confirmation of the existence of the Shadow Government.
[Gateway Pundit] Former CIA Director-turned-Twitter troll, John Brennan lashed out at Trump on Sunday evening after the President ordered the DOJ to investigate the FBI’s infiltration of his campaign.

Brennan also fired a warning shot to House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, claiming they will ’bear the majority of the responsibility of the harm done to our democracy’ if they don’t stop Trump.

As previously reported by TGP’s Kristinn Taylor, President Trump tweeted Sunday afternoon he is ordering the Justice Department to investigate whether the Obama administration spied on his 2016 presidential campaign.

The order comes on the heels of leaks to the New York Times and Washington Post that the Obama administration had an "informant" make several approaches to three Trump campaign officials, included one that involved an offer of cash and another an offer to "advise" the campaign.

Trump tweeted: "I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes ‐ and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!" the president tweeted.

#13  The 911 report concluded that GIVERnment agencies failed to cooperate with each other. It appears the IRS, DOJ, FBI, CIA, DNC... exceeded cooperation expectations under the Obama administration with regards to Trump.

#12  It would have been so much better for Brennan if his tweet had been: "We in the intelligence community welcome an inquiry into our actions. We have done nothing wrong. Let the light shine in."

Like Trump did?

Instead Brennan is saying: "By Allah! Don't look in that room! You just can't! Disaster would ensure!" That's the stupidest message he could possibly have put out.

Lawyers spend tons of (billable) time reviewing documents for production, and I have never heard one say, "This document is so good for our case that we need to make sure the judge and jury never see it."

#8  I think it was something the Deepstate thought to use to punish Trump for running against their candidate and when he won, they upgraded it to try and control him.

#7  The funny thing is that Trump was willing to just let things slide when he took office. It was their insistence to follow the fake 'Russian Collusion' (which they knew damn well was a setup) that is about to bring all this crashing down. They are about to shoot themselves in the back of head.

#6  He's pretty much openly threatening them with exposure of their deepest darkest secrets if they don't comply.

It's an act of desperation but it might work. Sometimes high ranking politicians do have deep dark secrets.

#1  This twerp Brennan is very close to the top of my "perp-walk parade" wish list. The Hildabeast is number one, of course.
