Part 3/6:
One of the prominent figures facing scrutiny is former CIA Director John Brennan. The Department of Justice is now considering prosecuting Brennan for allegedly providing false testimony to Congress. In particular, Brennan claimed in 2017 and again in 2023 that he had no involvement with the infamous Steele dossier and did not want it included in the intelligence community assessment regarding Russia interference.
Questions of Truthfulness and Legal Implications
The core issue revolves around whether Brennan lied under oath during congressional testimonies. Lying to Congress is a serious federal offense that can lead to criminal charges, and the recent developments suggest that prosecutors believe there is sufficient grounds to pursue such action against him.
