Former DNI Director James Clapper threw former President Barack Obama under the bus on CNN yesterday. Clapper admitted to CNN’s Jim Sciutto that everything he and John Brennan had done prior to and during the 2016 election was explicitly on Barack Obama’s orders. Jim Sciutto says,“Are you concerned that Barr or Durham’s investigation will find wrongdoing and seek to punish former intelligence officials like you? Clapper responds: "President Obama, told us to do it. It’s kind of disconcerting now to be investigated for, you know, having done our duty and done what we were told to do by the president.”

Brennan - "It’s kind of disconcerting now to be investigated for, you know, having done our duty and done what we were told to do by the president."
So, Donald Trump was elected to be the President. Might it not have been Mr. Brennan's duty to follow this new President's directions?
Apparently not!

Drudge has abandoned us. Not just conservatives, everyone who believed he was an unbiased journalist.
This should be the number one story on all news sites. Can't find it on Drudge. He hasnt headlined a single story about Ukraine supporting Trump's call, or Schiff making up a BS transcript and reading it to Congress and the world.
Any version of the truth since this bogusgate broke, he doesn't feature. Did Trump pee on his teddy bear? Was he expecting to be selected for the Supreme Court? If you want the latest lies about Trump and all the fake journalism, go to Drudge.
What a way to burn your brand. Edward R. Murrow is turning over in his grave.

imho, Clapper is a dope and Brennan is an anti-American thug. That the two of them ever were selected by Obama for top level positions in our most important security institutions tells any fair minded well informed person who honors America exactly what Obama was (and is). Of course Obama not only knew, he likely let these two unworthies know that all this was specifically what he wanted them to do. But, Obama is very skilled at keeping his own hands clean, so no, I do not expect that Obama will ever be held accountable for any of Clapper and Brennan's dirty and illegal politically motivated deeds. Especially with the media as it currently exists in America.

Well, under the bus is where he belongs. Of course, the orders came from obama----his communist sycophants certainly weren't going hatch a hoax like this without the highest approval.

I've been waiting three years to hear this. Obama ordered scummy guys to do scummy things.
President Obama ordered the illegal investigation of the Republican candidate and the wiretaps of his election committee.
He is behind and directed the collusion hoax.
No one darted say it except the guys who did it for him. Expecting Brennan to turn next.

Step aside Dick, you just fell into a distant second place.
Nixon vilified and destroyed because he participated in covering things up his people did on their own. Obama orders it to happen and keeps a lid on it.

Breaking the law is not somehow innocent because your boss is POTUS. This is preparation for Brennan and Clapper bringing everyone involved down with them. They know there is going to be reluctance to indict a former President. But if that is where the facts lead then it needs to be done. I would love to see them all chained together being led into court. Everyone but Obama should be wearing a leopard pimp hat.

The icing on the cake is that Clapper is too stupid to realize what he just did. I expect that he’ll have an “accident” in the near future.

It might not be so easy to ignore this. Brennan and Clapper, nitwits that they are, learned how to survive as shown by their climb to the top. I would guess that they have some evidence of what they speak. This finger pointing by them may be a reminder to the former Pressss ... I can't say it. I wasn't able to put the office and that person together when he was in office and I can't do it now. This may be an attempt to ratchet down the screws a little more to put some pressure keeping a promise to protect them. Maybe they have presidential pardons but said they would not use them unless forced to? Heck Obama could have issued presidential pardons before he left for all parties including his own.
