Episode notes
Brennan's Control Over Russiagate Probe
- John Brennan had a pathological need to control the 2016 Russiagate investigation, corrupting CIA analyst processes significantly.
- This manipulation included pushing to include the debunked Steele dossier against analyst consensus.
Steele Dossier Rejected by Analysts
- The Steele dossier was rejected by all CIA analysts but kept in the ICA under duress from Brennan and FBI.
- Analysts and Russia experts agreed it was garbage and should not be part of the intelligence assessment.
CIA vs FBI on Clinton Plot Emails
- CIA found Hillary Clinton campaign emails credible showing a plot to smear Trump, while FBI dismissed them as Russian disinformation.
- This disconnect showed partisan bias and poor FBI judgment in dismissing intelligence the CIA trusted.
