The DOJ has for months been investigating Brennan and several others over the origins of the 2016 Trump-Russia probe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What I can confirm is that we have received a referral from you, Chairman Jordan, to investigate John Brennan,&#8221; Bondi said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/brennan-strzok-page-subpoenaed-part-federal-russiagate-probe-sources\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>BRENNAN, STRZOK PAGE SUBPOENAED AS PART OF FEDERAL RUSSIAGATE PROBE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;His attorneys have made some public statements, but the department is still bound, of course, by our longstanding policy of not discussing matters,&#8221; Bondi said. &#8220;What I will say today I can&#8217;t confirm nor deny whether there&#8217;s a pending investigation, but what I will say [is] that no one is above the law. Weaponization has ended.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan&#8217;s referral to the DOJ, sent in October, centered on Brennan\u2019s testimony about the Steele dossier, a salacious document containing unverified, negative claims about Trump, and its role in an Obama-era Intelligence Community Assessment on Russia&#8217;s efforts to interfere in the 2016 election.<\/p>\n<p>The referral followed CIA Director John Ratcliffe also asking the DOJ to prosecute Brennan over broader conspiracy allegations.<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/brennan-strzok-page-subpoenaed-part-federal-russiagate-probe-sources\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">grand jury subpoenaed<\/a> Brennan and former FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, among others, as part of the DOJ&#8217;s investigation, Fox News Digital reported in November. The subpoenas originated from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, leading Brennan&#8217;s lawyers to <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/brennan-cia-trump-russia-justice-department-cannon-8272c2270987315fb39190a20d43dba0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">accuse<\/a> the DOJ of forum shopping for Republican-friendly judges.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., chimed in after Bondi answered, alluding to comments Trump has made about targeting his pollical enemies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we want to know whether Mr. Brennan will be indicted, you should just ask the president,&#8221; Goldman said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-says-brennan-comey-crooked-hell-amid-fbi-probe-may-have-to-pay-the-price\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News Digital<\/a> asked Trump last summer about Brennan after reports first surfaced that the FBI was investigating him and several others involved in what Republicans have widely viewed as a politically motivated effort to undermine Trump&#8217;s 2016 election campaign and victory. Trump said at the time that &#8220;whatever happens, happens.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think they&#8217;re very dishonest people. I think they&#8217;re crooked as hell. And, maybe they have to pay a price for that,&#8221; Trump said at the time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/bondi-confirms-doj-has-received-criminal-referral-alleging-brennan-perjury-over-steele-dossier\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/bondi-confirms-doj-has-received-criminal-referral-alleging-brennan-perjury-over-steele-dossier <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Attorney General Pam Bondi said she received a criminal referral from the House Judiciary Committee alleging former CIA Director John Brennan lied to Congress, confirming [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-120602","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
