Trump Should Be More Worried About the Brennan Dossier (*Seems Important*)
Trump Should Be More Worried About the Brennan Dossier
... snip
Brennan had just spent two days sequestered in his office reviewing a small mountain of material on Russia…There were piles of finished assessments, but Brennan had also ordered up what agency veterans call the “raw stuff” — unprocessed material from informants, listening devices, computer implants and other sources. Clearing his schedule, Brennan pored over all of it, his door closed, staying so late that the glow through his office windows remained visible deep into the night from the darkened driveway that winds past the headquarters building’s main entrance…
Brennan’s review session occurred against the backdrop of these unsettling developments. But his call to the White House was driven by something else — extraordinary intelligence that had surfaced in late July and reached deep inside the Kremlin, showing that Putin was himself directing an “active measures” operation aimed not only at disrupting the U.S. presidential race but electing Trump.
What we know based on previous reporting from the Washington Post is that not only did Brennan request a meeting with Obama, at about the same time he sent the president a dossier that he had compiled.

Brennan convened a secret task force at CIA headquarters composed of several dozen analysts and officers from the CIA, the NSA and the FBI.
The unit functioned as a sealed compartment, its work hidden from the rest of the intelligence community. Those brought in signed new non-disclosure agreements to be granted access to intelligence from all three participating agencies.

The article is not long, but is full of important information. Please go to the link and read it in full. These snips are only a taste.
I am moving the Brennan twitter posts down to the 3 reply so that this article stands out.

and republicans are continuing to betray America as they cover up the lying, grifting and treason of Dirty Donny, their republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief.
Jaw-dropping scary!
God speed John Brennan and Bob Mueller! Bring this country back from the edge of the cliff!
