| Interesting take on John Brennan's interview with John Durham: John Brennan Was Put in a Perjury Trap Yesterday — A Completely Legitimate One | |
| 2020-08-23 | |
| [Red State] ...conducting the interview at the CIA facility is an interesting decision. Why not question him at DOJ or FBI HQ? The CIA is not a law enforcement agency. John Brennan no longer works for the CIA. Any CIA records that may have been needed over the course of the interview could have been made available in a secured facility at both those locations. But that "records" excuse may have been the very justification given for the selection of the CIA HQ as the location for the interview. DOJ and the FBI HQ are in Washington DC. CIA Headquarters is in Langley, Virginia. If you are geographically challenged, you can read the distinction as "United States District Court for the District of Columbia" v. "United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia." If John Brennan offered any false answers to the investigators during the interview, the venue for that "false statement" crime is in the EDVA, not in DC federal court.
Kevin Clinesmith was referred to as 'Attorney 2' in a 2018 Inspector General report, which described in detail anti-Trump text messages he sent to an unnamed lover while the campaign was in full swing. Clinesmith in the 2018 report expressed his disdain for the incoming President Trump with the phrase 'Viva le resistance' and opined that then-Vice President-Elect Mike Pence was 'stupid.' His lover texted back: 'Screw you Trump,' and added that Hillary Clinton 'better win ... otherwise i'm gonna be walking around with both of my guns.' She also labeled Trump's supporters in Ohio 'retarded,' and in a fit of pique over being asked to work on Inauguration Day, she added: 'F*** Trump.' Special Counsel Robert Mueller later fired Clinesmith for his anti-Trump bias, citing the lawyer's comment to another official after the 2016 that 'the crazies won finally.'

| #6 Durham bowing to Brennan's obvious (home team advantage) venue in McLean set a very poor visual as well as precedent. He should have made the SOB come downtown. What little confidence I had in the Durham effort continues to ebb away. |

| #5 /\ Assuming conversations in a SCIF, not so sure about that. But, we do have those "national-technical" means...same gang that has Hillary's e-mails. |

| #4 Brennan might be smart enough to have never sent email or texts to the operatives. I wonder whether there are tapes of phone conversations. |

| #3 Why would Brennan even go to an interview with a prosecutor? To get in front of allegations from the last FBI arrest. |

| #2 Because nothing is going to happen to him, kinda sorta like the Comey-Clinton "interrogation". |

| #1 Just a question of curiosity. Why would Brennan even go to an interview with a prosecutor? |
