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.

CYA chief?
Dirty Brennan should be crawling up the White House driveway on his belly to issue a public apology, with all media in attendance, for his dreadful treatment of the President of the United States.
That’s just a start. I’ll think of something else in a minute.

Thank God Trump revoked his security clearance. There is no telling what "bad information" he would have received from the deep state holdovers.

If you don´t know if you have bad information or not, Mr. Brennan, you don´t spend 2 years spreading that uncorroborated information to the news media---unless you are John Brennan, and have no principles or ethics.

"Well, I don’t know if I received bad information but...."
One of the things CIA officers do all the time is to distinguish between good and bad information. By making this admission Brennan is admitting that he messed up (I´d use another word but I would get kicked out). Director´s of the Central Intelligence Agency should never "mess up." The fact that he is using this excuse for his personal vendetta against Trump shows just what a low class vindictive SOB he is. He is beyond despicable. He is an embarrassment to all who have ever served this nation. Rant over.

First, he´s admitting he was receiving information, so now it´s who was feeding him information.
My hunch is it´s been The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP) which is run by former staffer to DiFi, Daniel J. Jones, who sent out daily "briefings" to new media and politicians.
The TDIP receives some of it´s funding from Rob Reiner and George Soros.

Let´s see, career agency since college, a man who rose through the ranks from cleaning the toilets up through analyst, station chief, all the way to Director, a man who was trained to lie, to lie about lying, to lie about the lie, to lie about lying about the lie, and in the process also trained to identify a lie, to tease out from the nuance of the lie the source of the lie, who concocted it, the conduit for its transmission, the intended target, the purpose of the lie …
Anyway, he now shuffles up to the microphone, fiddles in the dirt with the toe of his boot, and mutters “Aw shucks, Gomer! Sounds ‘ike somebuddah sol’ me a empty sack.”
Yeah. Right. What’s wrong with THAT picture?

Brennan was somebody´s stalking horse. Either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. He´s so high up its unlikely he would take orders otherwise, and he wouldn´t go out on his own. Good luck getting this guy to spill the dirt though. He´s CIA. If he has to, he´ll take one for the lefty team.

Brennan received bad information? The CIA is the very body that gathers and interprets the information so... Clownhead Clapper and his NSA provide the elecronic intercepts but the CIA does all the rest. If Brennan got bad information then he had some stupid employees.
But of course we know that Johnny is now using his misinformation tool to attempt to place the blame on others. After all of his badmouthing of the President he will attempt to remove himself from the endless stream of angry screamers out there who expected different results from Mueller. Sorry Johnny, you chose your side and it was the wrong one.

Looks like Brennan is getting ready to plead gross stupidity. It’s hard to believe that the greatest President in the history of the world, Barack Obama, seeped in the Chicago way of politics, would have appointed such clowns to run the nation’s intelligence, law enforcement, and security services. Today the Russians have to be laughing their butts off!

This mea culpa is two years too late. I can only believe that this is a feeble attempt to try to keep his fanny out of prison.
To claim at this late date he was misled by bad information only makes me wonder how somebody that incredibly stupid could have ever been CIA chief.
