Part 5/10:
Amidst the broader concerns over accountability, some developments in political oversight have emerged as positive. Notably, former CIA Director John Brennan and ex-FBI Director James Comey are now under investigation for allegedly providing false statements related to the 2016 Trump-Russia investigation. This inquiry appears to scrutinize their roles in a mission that has since been discredited, even by the CIA itself.
Brennan, defending his actions, claimed in an MSNBC interview that he had always acted in accordance with his intelligence responsibilities, asserting that he and others tried to remain unbiased and not interfere in elections. Schlichter dismissed these claims sharply, sarcastically stating that Brennan's assertion of innocence is akin to believing the sun rises in the west.
