Former CIA Director John Brennan said Thursday he would gladly testify to Congress.

Speaking on MSNBC on the same day that ex-FBI head James Comey agreed to testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee, Brennan said: “I welcome the opportunity to testify publicly in front of the Justice Committee.”

“I am happy to talk to them just the way I spoke to John Durham, the Department of Justice, or any other committee on the hill,” he added later.

Durham is the U.S. Attorney leading the criminal investigation into Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI’s previous counter-intelligence probe into Donald Trump’s campaign.

A former FBI attorney pleaded guilty this month to altering an email during the probe as part of Durham’s investigation. More charges are possible, according to Attorney General William Barr.

Brennan had begun saying that Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Senate Homeland Security Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) “don’t have the—” and appeared to mouth or say an expletive before starting over. “They don’t have the interest in calling me up in front of their committees and to testify publicly in front of the American people,” he said.

The investigations into Crossfire Hurricane are “a hyper-partisan, politically corrupt effort to try to create an environment prior to the election that cast Donald Trump in a positive light and Joe Biden in a negative light,” he added.

Johnson gained authority on Wednesday to subpoena Brennan and 39 others involved in Crossfire Hurricane.

Brennan said he would agree to testify if asked, without a subpoena. He has previously said he does not have anything to hide.

Graham said publicly in May that he would call Brennan but has not done so.

I am sure Richard Burr's opening remarks will include a profuse apology for bothering him.

Brennan needs to be locked up

I'm fine with everyone else escaping punishment if he gets his comeuppance.

Of course he would. He's a proven liar many times over.

Oh, I don’t know, maybe for running a black ops campaign against a presidential candidate, or maybe for a gun running scheme in Libya.

His face always looks like he's bearing down to take a dump.

No point in putting a known liar under oath.

Unless Lindsey has lead pipe proof of something that Brennan will lie about, there's no point in the theater.

The idea these guys will tell the truth or be held accountable is laughable.

Rosenstein admitted he didn’t do his job regarding FISA and that he is ultimately responsible/accountable, but that he shouldn’t be held accountable. These guys don’t give a shite and the corrupt deep state ain’t doing shite to them.

True declass would be everything Brennan knew when he made the decisions he did

Let’s be fully transparent with the American people

The comms are 3Y delta for declass. The temp prison barge will hold them until Camp X-ray is fully moved to Camp Justice, and Camp X-ray is revamped. The court house for the tribunals has circuit court TV to Miami. The feeds are being worked on under the ocean by the Seabees & Navy divers squadron as we speak.

Each day that passes without that traitor dangling at the end of a short, thin rope is a disgrace.

TIME FOR THESE TRAITORS TO SPEW bullshite IS OVER CA. ... I am telling you what you already know! lol

Durham (or whomever the frick it really is) was not hired to write reports. They were hired to collect data for Barr to make indictments.


an offer by Brennan to testify before congress is MAYBE,, A BIG MAYBE, the first time I think that Brennan is in trouble.
