Trump DOJ Launches Deep State Probe Into Comey and Brennan

The Trump Department of Justice has initiated criminal investigations into former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan for alleged misconduct related to the Trump-Russia probe, including making false statements to Congress. Kash Patel, a prominent figure involved, labeled Comey as responsible for "the largest criminal conspiracy against the United States" due to illegal surveillance efforts against Donald Trump's campaign.

Although the leak about these investigations appears timed to distract from ongoing Epstein-related controversies, it signals that Trump's DOJ is actively targeting what they perceive as deep state actors. However, skepticism exists regarding whether sufficient evidence exists for convictions, with some considering the move as a strategic attempt to pressure and embarrass these figures.

The investigations touch on significant historical intelligence and legal controversies, including the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment and FISA court abuses. The episode highlights deep political tensions and the complex interplay of legal actions and political strategy in the Trump era.
