New Declassified Docs Expose Obama’s CIA Director’s False Trump-Russia Testimony [WATCH]

Former CIA Director John Brennan is facing renewed scrutiny following the declassification of a CIA internal review that contradicts sworn testimony he gave regarding the agency’s 2016 assessment of Russian interference in the presidential election.

The review, conducted by senior CIA analysts, shows Brennan insisted on the inclusion of the unverified Steele dossier in the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), despite strong objections from top CIA Russia experts.

The internal report was made public last week and sheds new light on how the discredited opposition research document, compiled by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele and funded by the Hillary Clinton campaign, ended up in a key U.S. intelligence report ordered by President Barack Obama.

The ICA concluded that Russian President Vladimir Putin sought to help Donald Trump win the 2016 election.

According to the review, Brennan overrode repeated warnings from his senior officers. Then-Deputy Director for Analysis David Cohen wrote to Brennan on December 29, 2016, cautioning that including the Steele dossier in the assessment would threaten “the credibility of the entire paper.”

Brennan responded in writing, stating, “my bottom line is that I believe that the information warrants inclusion in the report.”

Two senior CIA Russia experts—one with operational field experience and another with an analytical background—raised concerns that the Steele dossier did not meet even “the most basic tradecraft standards.”

Despite their objections, Brennan reportedly moved forward, insisting that the dossier’s alignment with prevailing theories about Russian motives justified its inclusion.

The internal review stated that this decision “ran counter to fundamental tradecraft principles and ultimately undermined the credibility of a key judgment.”

Although the dossier was included as an annex to the ICA, the review revealed that it was also referenced in the main body of the report as supporting evidence for the judgment that Putin “aspired” to assist Trump’s campaign.

The inclusion of the Steele dossier in the main section of the ICA, the review noted, “implicitly elevated unsubstantiated claims to the status of credible supporting evidence, compromising the analytical integrity of the judgment.”

The CIA review also pointed to pressure from other agencies.

It noted that then-FBI Director James Comey strongly pushed for the dossier’s inclusion and indicated that the FBI’s cooperation with the ICA depended on it.

“FBI leadership made it clear that their participation in the ICA hinged on the Dossier’s inclusion and, over the next few days, repeatedly pushed to weave references to it throughout the main body of the ICA,” the review stated.

Despite these facts, Brennan testified under oath before Congress on May 23, 2017, stating that the Steele dossier “wasn’t part of the corpus of intelligence information that we had. It was not in any way used as a basis for the Intelligence Community Assessment that was done.”

The new revelations call that testimony into question and raise potential legal concerns about whether Brennan misled Congress.

Thank you, Mr President!

Special Counsel John Durham’s 2023 report already concluded that “the FBI was not able to corroborate a single allegation contained in the Steele Report.”

The dossier famously alleged, among other claims, that Donald Trump had hired prostitutes in a Moscow hotel room—claims that were never substantiated.

The review described Brennan as being “more swayed by the Dossier’s general conformity with existing theories than by legitimate tradecraft concerns.”

It also noted Brennan had been actively promoting the dossier to Democratic leaders and media outlets during the 2016 campaign.

Brennan has continued to downplay his knowledge of the dossier’s role. In a 2018 appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Brennan claimed he only heard “just snippets about” the dossier in the “late summer of 2016.”

The ICA’s inclusion of the Steele dossier ultimately helped set the stage for Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, which dominated the first two years of President Trump’s first term and cast a shadow over his 2016 election victory.

With this new information, scrutiny over Brennan’s role in the origins of the Trump-Russia probe continues to intensify, with lawmakers and legal experts examining whether his 2017 testimony could lead to further investigation or legal consequences.
