Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    FWIW, I don't think Brennan leaked the Trump dossier, certainly not personally. But CIA has been playing double game on leaks.

        question isn't leak of dossier; it wasn't leaked. Who told Bernstein, Tapper, Sciutto, Perez about *synopsis* of dossier?

        It wasn't leaked? Who released it to press?

        Exactly. Dossier was circulated to press in the fall. Leak was about appendix to the daily brief.

        False. Dossier post-dated that. @andrewlong166

        Not sure we're talking about the same leak. I'll bow out.

        The dossier has to have been leaked after December 13. No hand-off came that late. @andrewlong166

        sure it did, to David Corn. Could have been to others, via other sources.

        No. Corn got this in October. He could not have gotten a dossier dated Dec 13 in October. @jerryn13

        Yeah it's been around since September, but they're doing something behind the scenes

        Not just this leak. ODNI has tried to absolve CIA for things that clearly came from CIA.

        McCain had it in November. He has motivation to leak it. Love of Country and hatred of Trump. McCain had nothing to lose.

        He did not have what got leaked in November. Impossible.

        The dossier is a much better explanation of the love affair between Trump and Russia than any other explanation...

        Steele was trying to get anyone to look at it. @DavidCornDC published the story prior to the election and it was ignored.

        I would not want to piss off John Brennan. (As trump has done) Brennan is one very scary dude.
