Former CIA Director John Brennan claims he’s “clueless” as to why the FBI would open a criminal probe against him and says he’s had “no contact” with federal authorities related to an investigation.
“Quite frankly, I don’t know what is true, you know,” Brennan told MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace Wednesday in his first public remarks since reports emerged that he’s under investigation for potential criminal conduct related to the 2016 Trump-Russia collusion probe.
“If it was a referral, if there is an investigation, presumably if there is an investigation, people will be questioned,” the former spy chief said.

He knows exactly what it is about and he is clueless if he thinks we will buy more of his lies! It is documented in testimony he gave about the Steele dosier when, he Clapper, Comey and the witch Hillary Clinton and Obama tried to frame Trump with that Russian collusion BS!

Yeah, #2, the "I know nothing" defense won't work in Brennan's case. He best lawyer up and get ready for his day of reckoning.

Maybe we can help inform him;
You lied to congress. It is recorded testimony, and it contradicts his department emails.

Why not? It worked for Hillary. Apparently knowing nothing is very believable for the communists.

He has lied to Congress. Does anyone doubt he would lie to the press?

Chickens coming home to roost and Brennan knows every one of them. He's eventually going to have some "contact" and hopefully it will be like having all his teeth extracted without any pain killer. Also, lets hope he has the company of his other smug conspirator, Comey and possibly others like James Clapper, Michael Hayden, Sally Yates, Susan Rice, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and Bruce Ohr.

No argument that Brennan is clueless but I question the people who put him in charge of the CIA. Did he think he was signing an office birthday card when he wrote his name along with the other 50 liars?

John Brennan lies. He has a whole cabal of associates in the CIA and FBI (federal authorities) that keep him informed.

I think Brennan lies just for fun. They will never get any information out of him. Despicable human being.

It would be nice to see a 5am knock on his door with armed agents taking him into custody.
Doubt it will happen, however, as he's likely been careful enough, just enough, to avoid such a situation.

Brennan says a lot of things that aren't true. As for not knowing what this about, he is either lying or Kamala/AOC stupid. Brennan is a lot of things. Stupid isn't one of them.

#2: My first thought was "rope a dope" a la Muhammad Ali. But Sgt. Schultz is even better! "I know nuth-ink... NUTH-INK!"

Not too bright, should have taken the 5th. He figured he was above the law so didn't need to do what normal people are advised to do when faced with the choice of lying or incriminating themselves.

He'll get a clue pretty soon and he know it's coming. Whether there will be any sort of serious consequences is doubtful. I am willing to bet that he won't even lose his pension. He will lose what's left of his reputation but that's a pretty slimy reputation already.

I'd be a little nervous these days if I were Brennen ...crooked hillary was deep into the Russia witch hunt...and funny things happen to anyone that can tell the truth....her life is full of "suicides" that happen to her enemies....let's remember Vince Foster and Seth Rich...just to mention a few....then there's a slew of Arkansas state police that committed suicide with a shot to the back of their heads....Washington is terrified of her...especially when she's drinking....cocktails....

Comrade Brennan, not knowing there's an investigation going on while you go about your daily chores IS the way it's supposed to work. You won't know until the FBI, DEA, TSA bomb-sniffing dogs, and local SWAT come waiving Court Orders and Warrants in your face. Rest assured, it won't be "Publisher's Clearinghouse" there to award you a cash prize. /s

Brennan is a piece of s..t. He knows exactly why he is being investigated and hopes are that he pays in dollars or jail time.
