GOP Rep. Peter King accused CIA Director John Brennan on Sunday of orchestrating a “hit job” against GOP President-elect Donald Trump.
In an interview Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” King, a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said while he agrees there should be an investigation into Russian involvement in the election, there should also be an investigation into Brennan for the “hit job he seems to be orchestrating against the president-elect,” Politico reports.
This hit job, according to King, has taken the form of Brennan allegedly leaking intelligence assessments to the press and circumventing Congress, in order to take shots at Trump.
“That’s what infuriates me about this, Martha, is that we have John Brennan, supposedly John Brennan, leaking to The Washington Post, to a biased newspaper like The New York Times, findings and conclusion that is he’s not telling the intelligence committee,” King said. . .

He also admitted he voted for the Communist Party when applying for a job at the CIA in 1980.
In this, Brennan - and all who aided and abetted him - are guilty of misreprentation, malfeasance, and lack of professionalism.
They should be rooted out and fired.

Well, it is true.
Bennan is out as of 1/20/17 but he will carry liability for his abuse of power and/or other crimes and improprieties committed while in office. Worst CIA director I can remember, no one else comes close at least in the past 20-30 years.
“What is Peter King after?
He is one of the slimiest RINOs in the House.”
My thought exactly, I think he sees the writing on the wall and hopes he’s not on the list. No bigger rino scumbag.
It’s too late to walk all your BS back. FUPK!
So what if he’s slime. He is fighting thicker slime.
King has become a loud mouthpiece for a good cause.
In this case he happens to be correct, IMHO.
He’s right about Brennan, but you are spot on.
Sure he’s correct.
Bur WHY he says it matters more than WHAT he says.
What does one expect from a closet muslim?
It confuses me when I agree with Peter King or John McCain.
I have learned that McCain is always lying when this happens but it still upsets me.
Just because he spouts off doesn’t ensure he gets anything. Besides, this one seems to bask in the attention and ‘pet causes’ where he jumps on the soap-box. He’s enjoying the focus upon him and likely needs the free publicity to help him bet reelected.
As long as he’s not another Barney Frank, he’s tolerable.
When it comes to Republicans (not Democrats) the standard is: “As long as he’s not another Peter King, he’s tolerable.”
Anyway... we can all agree it’s good times.
Mc Cain has already proclaimed Russians interfered with the Election
Neither is on the Senate Intelligence Committee
We need Richard Burr the proper Chairman of the Intelligence Committee
Mc Cain and Graham will get us in a war with Russia
“He is one of the slimiest RINOs in the House.”
You may have him confused with my rep, Pete Sessions of Texas.
I stand corrected. Seems the ayes have it.
Thinks Peter King “maybe he’ll eat me last”.
Kudos to King
Put him in a cell and see if he requests a prayer rug.
However, King is correct this time. Besides, only the voters can replace him and it appears that will not happen.
