John Brennan Complains He's Being 'Pilloried As an Example of the Deep State'

2019-10-08

[CNSNEWS] Republicans have questioned, and continue to question, whether the Obama intelligence community used foreigners -- from Australia, Italia and the United Kingdom -- to spy on the Trump campaign. Did they outsource spying, in other words.

That is part of what Connecticut Attorney General John Durham is investigating, at the request of Attorney General William Barr.

But in a very sympathetic interview with former CIA Director John Brennan

...director of the CIA under the Obama administration. One of the deeper dwelling denizens of the Deep State, possibly even the guy who lit the match that launched the Russiagate coup attempt...
, NBC's Chuck Todd never asked difficult questions about the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation and Brennan's possible role in it.

Instead, Todd told Brennan, "You have been completely character assassinated -- and eviscerated. And it doesn't matter whether the people like you or hate you, I think everybody can agree, you have been put through this. Do you understand how you got here?"
Not sleeping well, Comrade?
Brennan, a dedicated Trump hater, blamed Trump:

Well, I think it all goes back to Mr. Trump and his dishonesty and his complete obliteration of the norms of honesty in terms of his public statements. He was the one who started the birther conspiracy as far as Barack Obama
My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it...
was concerned. He has continued to fabricate information, and clearly Senator Johnson is running scared of Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
as are the other Republican senators, because if they say anything against him, he comes after them with a vengeance.

So, he is the typical bully. And so now I have become, you know, being pillaried as an example of the deep state.

How could you forget Ukraine and Russia? If and when we ever get to the bottom of this mess, we'll probably find a Chinaman or two as well.

#11 Admitted that he voted for the communists DURING THE COLD WAR and was still put into a position of authority in the US Government. That says a lot about the swamp.

#6 Pilloried if you're lucky.
You should be skinned. You're a menace to our democracy. We have never - until you came along - seen an attempted coup in this country.
What you tried to do is terrifying and must never be allowed to happen again.

Oh, and nice work: you've ensured the re-election of Satan Mussolini. Well done, Wyle E.!
