Red State: "First, it’s not Brennan’s statement. Shapiro issued the statement to Obama Administration scribe Natasha Bertrand at Politico — guaranteed to dutifully publish anything requested of her by a former Obama era intelligence official now living in fear. Shapiro then posted a string of eight Tweets on Twitter with the same text.
Both are devoid of any words actually spoken by Brennan — there are no quotations — nor is there any support offered for Shapiro’s claims [that Brennan was only a witness, not a target] by anyone actually in the room, such as Brennan’s attorneys.
Since when has Brennan been shy about saying anything on Twitter? Why would Brennan go “third person” and have his thoughts about the interview expressed only in the words of someone else? The most obvious reason is the statements are not going to be exactly accurate. Running them through a third person builds in a level of “deniability” on Brennan’s part. Shapiro wasn’t in the room for the interview. Shapiro is only putting out for public consumption what was told to him, and by phrasing it in the “third person” the way he has, it’s not a statement “by John Brennan” nor is it endorsed by Brennan’s counsel in the room. ...
Second, conducting the interview at the CIA facility is an interesting decision. Why not question him at DOJ or FBI HQ? DOJ and the FBI HQ are in Washington DC. CIA Headquarters is in Langley, Virginia...you can read the distinction as “United States District Court for the District of Columbia” v. “United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.” If John Brennan offered any false answers to the investigators during the interview, the venue for that “false statement” crime is in the EDVA, not in DC federal court. So if you are not a “target” — meaning there isn’t sufficient evidence at this time to charge you with a crime — then by default you are a “witness.”
But “witnesses” can, and often do talk themselves into being “targets” during such interviews. That was the purpose of the interview...John Brennan was placed into a perjury trap yesterday because he’s shown himself willing to perjure himself in the past in order to evade scrutiny.
Yesterday, the ability to avoid the trap was completely within his control — all he had to do was tell the truth. For the most part, Durham’s investigators knew the truth.".......
And if they didn't, they did after Sundance.

Disgraced criminal John Brennan lectures us on the Separation of Powers: “I think Donald Trump has been reaching into the authoritarian’s toolbox for quite some time in terms of delegitimizing the press, undermining the institutions of government, trying to corrupt and control the institutions of law enforcement and intelligence."
Brennan lied about breaking into the State Department's computers 3 times in 2008 to access and perhaps modify Obama's passport records. He managed to eventually parlay that into a CIA Directorship.
He also lied about breaking into Chairman Feinstein's Senate computers and threatening her staff for saying so, until he was forced to admit his lies. And that's how he treats his friends!
He wiretapped reporters, our allies, the Congressional cloakrooms, the Supreme Court, Feinstein's Senate computers and Donald Trump--among other candidates.
And when Angela Davis helped blow the head off of Marin County Judge Harold Haley with her shotgun, Brennan backed her for Vice-President.
You mean that "authoritarian's toolbox", Johnny?
We won't even go into how he helped Barry's effort to establish a Brotherhood Caliphate from Tunisia to Tehran...and Waziristan to Washington. Someday the history books will truthfully say so.
Somebody please take out the trash. It's stinking up the joint.
