John Brennan in 'panic mode' over what President Trump may reveal
[WND] Amid calls by Republicans for President Trump to declassify documents related to the Obama administration's probe of debunked Trump-Russia collusion, former Obama CIA Director John Brennan once again is calling for invoking the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office.

Brennan, who has accused Trump of "treason," discussed in an interview with Monday with CNN's Chris Cuomo the president's decision to fire Defense Secretary Mark Esper.

"It's clear that Mark Esper was removed as secretary of defense because he rebuffed Donald Trump's efforts to politicize the U.S. military," Brennan said. "And I think it's quite apparent from reporting that Mark Esper has stood up to Donald Trump repeatedly. Who knows what else he has refused to do?"

He said Trump could do "a lot of damage" before leaving office, and he might carry out "vendettas."

Brennan repeatedly expressed concern about what "information" Trump could release, urging officials to take immediate action.

"If Vice President Pence and the Cabinet had an ounce of fortitude and spine and patriotism, I think they would seriously consider invoking the 25th Amendment and pushing Donald Trump out, because he is just very unpredictable now," Brennan said.

#4 Yeah, so tell me John - why didn't Trump just invoke martial law in April, at the peak of the pandemic?
