Former CIA chief John Brennan is among the many ‘spies who lied’ who had their security clearances revoked by Trump this week.
Brennan rushed to MSNBC to air his grievances, because, honestly, what else would he do?
During his appearance, he tried to rewrite history by claiming his security clearance was solely used to advise the government on specific matters. He also twisted the truth about the infamous letter regarding Hunter Biden’s laptop.
As reported by Breitbart:
During a recent interview on MSNBC, Brennan criticized Trump for preventing him from giving the president advice on national security.
“The only reason why I still had a security clearance, as I have for the past number of years since I left government service, was for the benefit of the government, so that if the CIA or another government agency wanted to call me in to discuss the classified matter, they could do that,” Brennan said.
“It was really for the government’s benefit,” he claimed. “It was to facilitate those classified discussions with myself as well as with former directors as well as other former members of the intelligence community that had those clearances.”
Brennan said Trump’s executive order stripping him of the clearance was “bizarre” because Trump allegedly “misrepresented” his claim that Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation.
After the “laptop from hell” story broke in 2020, 51 former intelligence officials signed a letter that insinuated Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation. The letter was peddled by Politico under the title “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former intel officials say.”
