The FBI has opened a criminal investigation against former CIA Director John Brennan. But will Americans finally see justice for his alleged crimes and cover-ups? Or will the Deep State protect him? Former Department of Defense intelligence analyst Jason Buttrill joins Glenn Beck to give his prediction.
Former CIA Director John Brennan perjured himself and deserves prison soon now that the DOJ is investigating him.
This development has ignited cheers from MAGA supporters and President Trump himself, who have demanded accountability for what they view as treasonous behavior. Brennan’s history of anti-American actions, including his vocal criticism of Trump and alleged misuse of intelligence, paints a picture of a man who prioritized political warfare over national security. As the investigation unfolds, many believe prison time is not just warranted but overdue.
This briefing occurred just days before the FBI launched its Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump’s campaign, suggesting Brennan played a pivotal role in seeding the Russia collusion narrative. Despite pushback from other intelligence officials, Brennan insisted on including the discredited Steele dossier—a collection of salacious and unverified claims funded by the Clinton campaign—in the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russian interference.
This “atypical” inclusion elevated the dossier’s credibility, fueling years of investigations that hobbled Trump’s presidency. Brennan’s anti-Trump zeal didn’t end with his departure from the CIA in January 2017. He became one of the president’s most outspoken critics, using his platform as an MSNBC contributor to label Trump a “Russian asset” and accuse him of “craven dishonesty” and “corrupt pursuit of personal interests.”
In 2018, Trump revoked Brennan’s security clearance, citing his “erratic” behavior and “frenzied commentary,” a move that Brennan decried as an abuse of power. Yet, Brennan’s own actions have been scrutinized for potential abuses. A recent CIA review, ordered by Director John Ratcliffe, uncovered an email that contradicts Brennan’s sworn testimony to Congress, where he denied using the Steele dossier in the ICA.
This discrepancy has opened the door to perjury charges, as reported by multiple outlets.
The DOJ’s probe, confirmed by sources within the department, targets Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey for allegedly misusing intelligence and making false statements.
President Trump, who has long viewed Brennan as a key figure in the “Russia hoax,” wasted no time in responding. In a recent White House statement, Trump declared, “I think they’re crooked as hell and maybe they have to pay a price.”
He slammed Brennan and Comey as “very dishonest,” emphasizing that their actions undermined American democracy. Continued below the video…

This sentiment echoes across the MAGA movement, where calls for Brennan’s imprisonment have grown louder amid the investigation. On X (formerly Twitter), MAGA voices have been unrelenting in their demands for justice. One user,
, posted a video clip of Trump’s comments, captioning it: “BREAKING President Trump said James Comey and John Brennan may go to PRISON. LET’S GO ‘I think they’re crooked as hell and maybe they have to pay a price’ LOCK THEM UP.”
The post garnered thousands of likes and reposts, reflecting widespread frustration. Another account,
, shared: “BREAKING: General Mike Flynn says Jim Comey, James Clapper, and John Brennan will go to prison for their 2017 plot against Trump if they are investigated.”
Flynn, a Trump ally who himself faced scrutiny during the Russia probe, has accused Brennan of orchestrating a “coup” against the president.Brennan’s alleged anti-American actions extend beyond the Trump era. As CIA Director, he oversaw controversial drone strikes that critics say violated international law and resulted in civilian casualties. Leaked documents revealed discrepancies in reported death tolls, leading to accusations of misleading Congress.
Moreover, Brennan’s admission of voting for a Communist Party candidate in 1976 has fueled claims that his worldview is fundamentally at odds with American values.
In the context of the Russia probe, these elements paint Brennan as a partisan operator who used the CIA’s vast resources to target political enemies.The current investigation stems from a scathing CIA review that faults Brennan’s oversight and highlights how he amplified unverified intelligence to damage Trump.
Former Trump advisor George Papadopoulos told The Washington Times that the DOJ has an “airtight” case against Brennan for perjury and lying under oath.
Investigative journalist Matt Taibbi noted that Brennan pushed the Steele dossier into the ICA at the behest of Comey and the FBI, potentially exposing him to conspiracy charges.
MAGA supporters see this as vindication after years of what they call a witch hunt against Trump. Posts like
‘s declare: “The American people don’t just want these ‘deep state’ heads fired, we want them in prison for interfering with and stealing the 2020 election. John Brennan is one of them. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.”
Another user,
, referenced an opinion piece calling for Brennan’s imprisonment, stating: “THIS STILL MATTERS Opinion BRYAN DEAN WRIGHT: John Brennan was my boss at the CIA. He belongs in prison.”
Brennan has denied any wrongdoing, telling reporters he has had “no contact” with federal authorities and dismissing the probe as baseless.
In a recent MSNBC appearance, he claimed the allegations “have no evidentiary basis whatsoever.”
However, critics argue this is just more deflection from a man who has lied before. As investigative reporter John Solomon hinted, “massive charges” could come in the next 10 days, including perjury against Brennan.
President Trump’s base, galvanized by his return to the White House, demands swift justice. Declassified documents from late 2024 revealed Brennan’s direct involvement in briefing Obama on Clinton’s Russia smear, labeled by MAGA as “TREASON… STRAIGHT TO PRISON
With the DOJ under Trump’s influence, the investigation could lead to indictments, fulfilling long-held promises of draining the swamp.In conclusion, John Brennan’s legacy is one of alleged deceit, partisanship, and betrayal. From pushing fabricated intelligence to his relentless attacks on Trump, his actions have eroded trust in America’s institutions. As the DOJ probe intensifies, prison seems not just possible but deserved. MAGA and President Trump agree: it’s time for accountability. – Sgt K – associate editor of Whatfinger News, with X Posts, Grok

MUST WATCH. John Kiriakou tells a story he NEVER TOLD PUBLICLY.. “THE FASCINATING JOURNEY OF JOHN BRENNAN‘S ASCENSION TO HEAD OF CIA” @JohnKiriakou says, “When I got hired Brennan was a DS-14 nobody. Deputy Director of the Arab/Israeli analysis group. He worked for a women Martha Kessler who was a great mind on Syria & they did not get along and he was imposed on her. He went to her asked her for a promotion & wanted her blessing” She said, “Not only are you not ready for the Senior Service but you are FIRED.” John explains that ” In the CIA when you are fired you are not really fired. You have 6 weeks to walk the halls and find a job. If you cant they escort you out and take your badge.” John states, “This happened around XMAS & there was no jobs at Xmas. Finally he goes to the (PBD STAFF) President’s Daily Brief Staff and they have an opening for a low level staffer. The Director of Intelligence Programs who happens to be George Tenet.Brennan & Tenet hit it off..Alpha Dog/Hard Drinkers…Tenet gets promoted to be Deputy Director of the CIA. He takes Brennan with him & names him Martha’s Boss. Brennan calls her in and fires her. He is made station chief of Riyadh which is one of the most important countries in the world.” He comes back as the #3 ranking official in the CIA. He discusses how a lot of factions went to the McCain campaign, some went to Clinton and only BRENNAN went to the Obama campaign. There in lies history. The story seemed to leave @patrickbetdavid SPEECHLESS.
