Former CIA chief John Brennan slams Devin Nunes for ‘reckless’ handling of memo
The Washington Times ^ | February 4, 2018 | Tom Howell Jr.

Former C.I.A. Director John Brennan on Sunday chastised the Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee on Sunday for his handling of a bombshell memo that delved into the secretive world of surveillance courts, saying the push to expose bias at the FBI was one-sided and shut out opposing views.

Mr. Brennan, who served under President Obama, said Rep. Devin Nunes, California Republican, could have held hearings to expose potential problems at the FBI, but instead put out “very selective, cherry-picked” memo without allowing Democrats to offer a rebuttal memo.

“I never, ever saw the Democrats do something like this that was so partisan, so reckless and really just laid waste to the protocols that governed committees,” Mr. Brennan told NBC’s Meet the Press. “And Devin Nunes, over the past several months, all the way back to the spring of last year I think has been engaged in these tactics purely to defend, make excuses and try to protect Mr. Trump.”

Methinks Brennan is culpable. The more he screams the closer we get to the truth. Like who got all of the information collected from the FISA warrants?

Yup.

A muslim (John Brennan) director of the CIA, especially after 9/11. What a wonderful idea. You can’t make this shiite up.

Nope - can't be believed

“I never, ever saw the Democrats do something like this that was so partisan, so reckless and really just laid waste to the protocols that governed committees,” Mr. Brennan told NBC’s Meet the Press.

H'e's upset because a corrupt FBI needs to be left in the shadows if it is to be able to decide who lives/dies/becomes President.....light has a cleansing effect.

Well, I never, ever saw Republican administrations take the entire government apparatus and weaponized it, you Freak.

Is there anything in the history of republican administrations that resembles this disregard for Law and Order??
