John Brennan’s criminal acts against the American people were backed by Obama. If the US still existed, both Brennan and Obama would be in jail.
8/19/18, “Clapper: Brennan’s rhetoric is becoming an issue,“ The Hill, Megan Keller
“Brennan’s claims drew criticism from some in the intelligence community who said the timing was suspect.
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr (R-N.C.) on Thursday took aim at Brennan for “purport[ing] to know, as fact, that the Trump campaign colluded with a foreign power."

Burr
added that Trump has the “full authority” to rescind security clearance
if the statements were “purely political and based on conjecture.”
Trump revoked Brennan’s security clearance last week, saying that
his “lying and recent conduct characterized by increasingly frenzied
commentary is wholly inconsistent with access to the nation’s most
closely held secrets and facilities, the very aim of our adversaries,
which is to sow division and chaos.”…
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said
Sunday that he thinks former CIA Director John Brennan’s rhetoric is
becoming an issue “in and of itself.”
“John and his rhetoric have become an issue in and of itself,” Clapper said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “John is subtle like a freight train and he’s gonna say what’s on his mind.”
Clapper’s comments came in response to an op-ed penned

Clapper said he empathized with Brennan, but voiced concerns for Brennan’s fiery rhetoric toward Trump and his administration.”…
