Flashback: John Brennan Predicted Additional Mueller Indictments Just Two Weeks ago
2019-03-24
[Daily Caller] Former Central Intelligence Agency Director John Brennan predicted just two short weeks ago that President Trump’s family members or associates would be indicted in the special counsel’s probe.

During an appearance on MSNBC on March 5, Brennan predicted that Mueller would issue indictments related to a "criminal conspiracy" involving Trump or his associates’ activities during the 2016 election. The forecast proved far off the mark on Friday after Robert Mueller ended his investigation without issuing new indictments.

"If anybody from the Trump family ... is going to be indicted, it would be in the final act of Mueller’s investigation because Bob Mueller and I think his team knows that if he were to do something, indicting a Trump family member, or if he were to go forward with an indictment on a criminal conspiracy involving U.S. persons that would basically be the death knell of the special counsel’s office," Brennan told anchor Lawrence O’Donnell.

"I don’t believe that Donald Trump would allow Bob Mueller to continue in the aftermath of those actions," he added.

It will be very difficult but it must be done.

#10  To be honest, it's fairly obvious that Rocks out brainpower him. I still think we need to round file the CIA and the others like it and bring back the OSS.

#8   If Barr doesn't move on all of these folks soon

Barr is a BUshie, so what's past is prologue.

#6  Brennan, you lied before Congress in front of the American people. Your indictment should be coming soon.

#5  Is it me (well, maybe not) or did this whole Mueller thing serve a secondary purpose of running the clock for two years to get all of these traitorous assholes that much closer to escaping charges due to the statute of limitations?

I liked Sessions as a Senator & Trump supporter but as AG he was worthless. If Barr doesn't move on all of these folks soon, it'll never happen. To me, that's an even bigger crime than the one that was alleged here.

#3  Frank, your list is way too short.

McCabe, Comey, et. al. need to be added.

#2  He needs to be the subject of an independent investigation, along with Clapper and Susan Rice

#1  ...The gravy train stopped for Comrade -...I mean, Mr. Brennan a while back when his security clearance got yanked. Said gravy train is now not only stopped but has derailed and taken the tracks with it.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
