John Durham Set To Interview John Brennan: Report, The final chapter? Nah

Via Washington Examiner:

U.S. Attorney John Durham will soon interview former CIA Director John Brennan, another sign that the investigation of the Trump-Russia investigators is ready to wrap up by the end of the summer.

Durham, the federal prosecutor from Connecticut appointed by Attorney General William Barr to investigate the origins of the Crossfire Hurricane inquiry and to scrutinize the conduct of the law enforcement leaders and intelligence officials involved in it, has asked to interview Brennan, according to "people familiar with the request" cited by NBC News, and the former top spy and vociferous Trump critic has reportedly agreed to the sit-down. The same report cites sources who suggest Durham's inquiry may be nearing the finish line.

Brennan has acknowledged that he is in the "crosshairs" of the criminal inquiry into the Russia investigation led by Durham. He recently claimed, and the White House acknowledged, that he asked the CIA for his official records, including his personal notes and any classified CIA documents that he had signed to help him write his upcoming memoir, but the agency denied his request.

Last year, the New York Times reported that Durham asked for Brennan's electronic communications, phone records, and other documents from the CIA, something NBC News confirmed on Wednesday.

The NBC News report also cited sources who claimed Durham has not interviewed Comey or McCabe, and another source claimed that former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper has been told by Durham that he will not be interviewed. (?)

So let me guess....They will release the report on Friday afternoon before a holiday weekend and the media will totally embargo the story. But all roads lead directly and indirectly to Obama - I haven't seen his invitation to talk to Durham - nor, Rice, Biden, Clinton.

#1 ....to help him write his upcoming memoir, but the agency denied his request.

No ticki (no clearance), no official records for your defense team. Director Gina Haspel has no doubt conducted her own internal agency investigation. Her old pal Brennan may be headed under the bus.

Or am I entirely too optimistic ?

#2 More on a sad subject from yesterday. The insulation of Soetoro. Clapper, Rice, and Comey are nearly complete.

#3 We'll see. Who knows? There, may yet be a boating adventure awaiting the former director.

#4 Im betting nothing of consequence happens. The swamp protects its own, even at the expense of the nation. Its becoming more and more likely that a complete tear0down and rebuild might be necessary.

#6 After you collect the incriminating evidence, you then call in the perp to add perjury to the list of charges. Ask Flynn.

Maybe that's the worst part of his 'punishment'.

#9 Anyone who thinks this will be settled by going through channels probably believes in the tooth fairy as well.
