Sharyl Attkisson doesn’t show any signs of letting up on John Brennan any time soon.
Hey, if he wants to put himself in the public eye this is part of it. Fun, ain’t it, John?
Rachel Maddow had a few interesting exchanges with Brennan (who doesn't come off as very bright or in control of his emotions considering the important jobs he's had and the criticism he heaps on others). https://t.co/93a2SebHve

Sharyl’s still not taking any prisoners.
And wow, this guy still had a security clearance? Trump did us a YUGE favor. Tell us he doesn’t remind you of some cranky old guy yelling at kids in the neighborhood for being on his lawn.
Wow. I think you just described Brennan's nemesis within your brackets.

People defending Brennan, we just don’t get it.
One doesn't cancel out the other necessarily. Funny though that he criticizes Trump's tweets then excuses his own histrionics as being Irish and unable to control himself. Don't you agree?
— Sharyl Attkisson?️♂️ (@SharylAttkisson) August 20, 2018
HA!
Yes, we agree.
Sharyly doing Sinclair's bidding smearing a patriot like Brennan that has served his country for decades. Not sure how you look at yourself in the mirror when you just shill for a treasonous administration. How much $$ does it take?

I'm surprised that even you think it's ok for Brennan to have spied on Senate intel committee, then falsely denied it. (Which he admitted). CIA shouldn't be spying on our political officials/citizens/journalists. In another lifetime, I believe you supported constitutional rights

Oof.
The Atlantic's article on Brennan spying on Senate Intel Committee, then falsely denying it, only to have to admit it. https://t.co/KJDtvRFLcN

From The Atlantic:
- In 2011, Leon Panetta––the previous director of the CIA––“revealed the name of the Navy SEAL unit that carried out the Osama bin Laden raid and named the unit’s ground commander” in the presence of an uncleared Hollywood filmmaker.
- In 2012, John Brennan inadvertently “helped lead to disclosure of the secret at the heart of a joint U.S.-British-Saudi undercover counter-terrorism operation.”
- During the Senate intelligence committee’s torture investigation, the CIA, which desperately wanted to conceal Leon Panetta’s torture review from the Senate, incompetently made it available to them through a Google search function.
- And now they’ve accidentally released a draft letter that they intended to suppress.
Accidentally.
Hard to blame just Politico–there was a big orchestrated campaign to try to distract from what happened, straight out of the propaganda playbook I write about in The Smear. In the end; it didn't work.

Sadly it did work, a little.
But it sounds like that’s coming apart, finally.
Sharyl didn’t stop at Brennan.
Sen. Wyden's statement on Clapper's resignation after Clapper provided false info to Wyden/Congress under oath. Clapper had denied existence of a mass surveillance program on Americans that he knew about. https://t.co/zEkBayrFOr

Oopsie.
Sen. Wyden on Clapper: Regardless of what was going through [Clapper's] head when he testified, failing to correct the record was a deliberate decision to lie to the American people about what their government was doing. https://t.co/zEkBayrFOr

Yikes.
You obviously have an axe to grind with the Brennan, and are doing your damnedest to obfuscate the manifest violations to Rule of Law perpetrated by the commander-in-chief. Yeah you're completely in the tank with Trump, don't try to deny it.
— Ice Rafter (@IceRafter) August 20, 2018
If you say so! And The Atlantic and Sen. Ron Wyden are part of the grand plot with me! 😉
— Sharyl Attkisson?️♂️ (@SharylAttkisson) August 20, 2018
And with us.
He and his staff spent weeks preparing a question? And then gave it to him so he could prepare? Good grief, is this really how DC operates?
— deplorablecarpenter (@Littlwyng) August 20, 2018
Yes. And still didn't get the truth.
— Sharyl Attkisson?️♂️ (@SharylAttkisson) August 20, 2018
Crazy ain’t it?
Odd how quiet Wyden has now become given he called out Brennan for spying on the senate committee investigating the CIA a few years ago. Where is he now? https://t.co/SnstfZgDA4 https://t.co/q8ehmhCuev
— Nick Short (@PoliticalShort) August 20, 2018
Odd indeed.
I have tried to contact him a few times over the years over these issues but his office is not responsive on them. https://t.co/bkPyab9b6n

Shocker.
