Just a few weeks ago former CIA Chief John Brennan attacked President Trump saying Robert Mueller would indict Trump family members on collusion as his last act.
You can't blame MSNBC viewers for being confused. They largely kept dissenters from their Trump/Russia spy tale off the air for 2 years. As recently as 2 weeks ago, they had @JohnBrennan strongly suggesting Mueller would indict Trump family members on collusion as his last act: pic.twitter.com/nPlaq5YVxf

Brennan was totally wrong. The day after the Mueller report was released, John Brennan told Morning Joe he must have received “bad information.”
Brennan on March 5: "Friday is the day that the grand jury indictments come down… I don't have any inside knowledge."
Brennan today: "I don’t know if I received bad information, but think I suspected that there was more than there actually was." pic.twitter.com/1PUJLhQMEc

The Washington Times reported:
Former CIA chief John O. Brennan now says his months of attacks on President Trump may have been based on “bad information.”
One of the president’s harshest critics had a muted tone on Monday as he discussed special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia report on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” No evidence was found to support the claim that Mr. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign “conspired or coordinated” with Russia.
“Well, I don’t know if I received bad information but I think I suspected there was more than there actually was,” Mr. Brennan told host Joe Scarborough. “I am relieved that it’s been determined there was not a criminal conspiracy with the Russian government over our election.”
Mr. Brennan said in December 2018, for instance, that Mr. Trump should prepare for the “forthcoming exposure of your malfeasance & corruption.”
“We need an actual leader — our Nation’s future is at stake,” he tweeted Dec. 31.
Brennan is totally lying. We know this from various more than obvious reasons as laid out by an online magazine –
Let’s put this in perspective. Mr. Brennan was not a disinterested third-party with no direct knowledge of the facts of the Russia investigation. He was not a shoe salesman in Des Moines while all this was transpiring. He was not a florist, a cab driver or the manager of a supermarket. He was in short, not just another American, doing his best to figure out the facts from what passes for the news these days and guess the truth.
He was the head of the CIA.
….In this context, what are the chances that the FBI received information from a former member of British intelligence and did not inquire of CIA what they knew about Mr. Steele, the circumstances under which he left the Queen’s employ and his reputation for truth and veracity.
Zero
In this context, what are the chances that the FBI came into possession of information regarding the actions of Donald Trump, his connections to the Russians and possible meetings on foreign soil and did not ask CIA what they knew already?
Zero
What are the chances that the FBI opened an investigation into possible Russian connections to the man who could be the next President of the United States and did not engage with CIA about these counterintelligence concerns?
Zero
What are the chances that while the FBI was conducting an investigation into the possibility that the Kremlin was one step away from putting a controlled agent in the White House the CIA simply stood by, did nothing, contributed nothing, investigated nothing and waited for the FBI to finish its work.
Zero
And finally, what are the chances that conversations between the FBI and the CIA regarding a possible counterintelligence threat that could reach to the Oval Office were not, at a minimum, brought to the attention of the most senior levels of CIA leadership.
Again, zero. In fact, Mr. Brennan has previously admitted publicly that an inter-agency task force on the topic was stood up, that it worked out of CIA Headquarters and that he was aware of its work.
Obama’s Head of the CIA John Brennan is more than disingenuous when he states ignorance on the Russia Hoax. He is more than disingenuous when he plays stupid about Obama and the Deep State’s actions to remove President Trump from office. Brennan was clearly in on it!
