Statement from Senate Intel Chairman Richard Burr on Comments by Former CIA Director John Brennan
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Richard Burr (R-NC), Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, issued the following statement on comments made in The New York Times by former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) John Brennan:
“Director Brennan’s recent statements purport to know as fact that the Trump campaign colluded with a foreign power. If Director Brennan’s statement is based on intelligence he received while still leading the CIA, why didn’t he include it in the Intelligence Community Assessment released in 2017? If his statement is based on intelligence he has seen since leaving office, it constitutes an intelligence breach. If he has some other personal knowledge of or evidence of collusion, it should be disclosed to the Special Counsel, not The New York Times.
“If, however, Director Brennan’s statement is purely political and based on conjecture, the president has full authority to revoke his security clearance as head of the Executive Branch.”

The reason Adm. Bill McRaven was not in this Situation Room photo on the day of the bin Laden raid? Because he was in the field, directing the raid. Today, McRaven stood in solidarity with John Brennan, writing to the president: "I would consider it an honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your presidency."

I am sure that McRaven also stood in full solidarity with Gen. McCrystal who was the field for years directing the entire Afg operation. Fired by Obama for referring to Obama and Biden as clowns and bozos who had no interest in anything outside DC. especially military matters even though we were involved in two wars.
