John Brennan invented a fake narrative that he had received information from foreign intelligence sharing programs that associates of Donald Trump were meeting and taking money from Russian operatives. Brennan passed the fake information to [[James Comey]] who began counterintelligence surveillance on [[Paul Manafort]] and others in the Trump orbit.
John Brennan invented a fake narrative that he had received information from foreign intelligence sharing programs that associates of Donald Trump were meeting and taking money from Russian operatives. Brennan passed the fake information to [[James Comey]] who began counterintelligence surveillance on [[Paul Manafort]] and others in the Trump orbit.
The underpinnings of Brennans [[fake news]] narrative read something like this: {{quotebox|"CIA Dir. John Brennan received information from British GCHQ intelligence as part of an allegedly "routine" intelligence sharing agreement about Trump associates' business dealings in Russia.<ref>https://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/magazine/interview-richard-dearlove-europe-intelligence-mi6</ref> The information is said to have originated with Estonian intelligence. [[Estonia]] is requesting a missile defence system at this time,<ref>https://www.ft.com/content/b9453544-228c-11e6-9d4d-c11776a5124d</ref><ref>http://linkis.com/atlanticcouncil.org/fAWKh</ref> while Trump adviser [[Newt Gingrich]] refers to the country of 1.3 million inhabitants as a 'suburb of St. Petersberg', which has 5.3 million inhabitants. Gingrich, rumoured to be on the short list for Secretary of State, says he doubts American leaders would risk [[nuclear war]] over [[Putin]]'s actions in the region.<br>Allegedly, the information that triggered Brennan to act was a tape recorded conversation that mentioned money from the Kremlin to the Trump Campaign."}} In actuality, John Brennan received nothing from UK intelligence.<ref>https://www.themarketswork.com/2018/04/22/nunes-interview-no-official-intelligence-used-problems-for-brennan/ </ref> Brennans fake narrative became the basis of the [[Trump-Russia hoax]], taken as gospel by [[leftist]]s and the [[mainstream media]].
Brennan shared his invented narrative with Clapper and Comey to form a Joint Counter-Intelligence Task Force.<ref>''NYT'', 1/19/17</ref>
The fake narrative is nothing new for Brennan; a decade earlier Brennan was responsible for fake narratives about US domestic spying under the Patriot Act to cover information that was gleaned from the Torture Program which Brennan oversaw.<ref>Brennan played a key role in the illegal wiretap program, overseeing the production of what personnel in the program called the “scary memos” intended to justify the domestic spying exposed by [''NYT'' reporter James] Risen. Brennan has since admitted that he relied on intelligence from the CIA’s interrogation programs to develop such memos, and his tenure in that role spanned the period when the CIA used its most extreme torture. https://www.thenation.com/article/government-war-against-reporter-james-risen/ </ref>
