Army Brigadier General Says John Brennan Is a ‘Clear and Present Danger’ Who Wants to ‘Overthrow’ Trump

48

Army Brig. Gen. Anthony Tata issued a dire warning about John Brennan on Fox News, telling the watching audience the former CIA chief is nothing but a “clear and present danger” to President Donald Trump and the White House.

Tata said Brennan’s main objective is to overthrow the administration and unseat the president.

He also spoke of the revocation of Brennan’s security clearance, calling it a good thing.

From the Daily Caller News Foundation:

Army Brig. Gen. Anthony Tata said former CIA director John Brennan is a “clear and present danger” to the United States and wants to “overthrow” President Donald Trump on Fox News Thursday.

Tata, who is now retired, said Brennan’s tweets disparaging Trump and calling for his removal are enough to revoke his security clearance.

“He spied on American citizens and lied in front of Congress about that spying,” Tata said on “Fox & Friends.” “Question 29 on the security clearance form says, you know, ‘have you ever supported overthrowing the U.S. Government?’ All of you got to look at Brennan’s tweets and he supports the removal of this president, and right there — that’s enough evidence to get rid of his clearance.”

Host Brian Kilmeade then played a clip of GOP Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana calling Brennan an embarrassment to the intelligence community and accusing him of being politically biased in his professional dealings.

“I’ve made my feelings known about Mr. Brennan. I think most Americans look at our national intelligence experts as being above politics,” Kennedy said. “Mr. Brennan has demonstrated that that’s not the case. He’s been totally political. I think I called him a butthead and I meant it. I think he’s given the national intelligence community a bad name.”

“John Brennan is a clear and present danger and a threat to this nation,” Tata concluded. “He supports the overthrow of this particular president. And he needed to have his access to information revoked.”

The Brigadier General is right; however, his warning will fall upon
deafened ears. Not only those bent on the nations end but the fetid
RINOS steeped in their self-serving arrogance.Bowing to the subversives that are rife within the pyramid of power.

Brennan is a traitor; this is not fake-news but fact. The equally traitorous Democrats are culpable in the unceasing sedition within its ranks and those such as Brennan. Brennan is not the sole seditionist within the government and its agencies. If the liberal of the electorate is so shallow to admit the truth; they are as culpable as the betrayers. When people are permitted to shout ‘No wall, no border, no America,’ it is time to indict these people. Especially, when those of us who criticize Islam or Liberal progressivism denying the right to our First Amendment rights. The Republic is under attack not merely by Islam but those whose sole intent is, also, to destroy this Republic. The Democrats, Islam are a deeply seeded malignancy, in need of expunging. It is time for us not to point fingers at the EU and Britain but to take stock of our undoing within the ranks of government, agencies, education and a bevy of others.

I have to wonder if Obama and John Kerry still have top level security clearances….
Susan Rice, Clapper, Hillary Clinton and ALL of them have to have their security clearances REVOKED!
I honestly thought this was the policy because it makes no sense that AFTER they have left their position that they should still have access to this information beyond a transition time.

No departing Federal employee should retain their security clearance unless specifically hired as a special consultant to the current administration.

I agree. All security clearances should automatically end when employment ends. If they are hired as consultants after their departure they need to reapply. I am shocked that this is not the case. We are in deeper manure than I thought.

Brennan lied to Congress more than once . . . . Lied to the Senate about surveylance . . .

Did you know he voted for Gus Hall . . . communist back in the day?
Perhaps that is why Obama just luved him . . .

The CIA regulations state that an Ex-CIA Director is entitled to Clearance as long as he continues to ACT like a CIA Director . . . . Obviously Brennan is Unhinged and Insane . . . . hence cut loose to join Krazy Joe and no-neck Steltzer in la la land !

I agree with a lot of the comments that Brennan is an enemy of the state and a threat to our national security. When he starts to actually threaten to overthrow the elected government he should be arrested and placed in isolation awaiting trial for treason. We used to get warned about that once/year when I was in the Air Force. Criticizing is one thing, but when you start talking overthrow that’s a whole ‘nother matter!

Security clearances are based on “need to know”, not just investigation results. When Brennan and the rest of the deep state toadies left their government jobs, their security clearances should have been automatically deactivated/suspended/revoked since they no longer had a need to access classified information to do their jobs.

My clearance was deactivated, if that’s the right word, when I left the Air Force. It was reinstated when I went to work for a defense contractor.

Do you think Mueller is going to investigate this Russian Collusion ? ? ?

John Brennan: the Russian Dossier and Harry Reid
He has been assaulting the President in the most vicious, cutting, unhinged manner on a consistent basis since his election victory. His role in propagating the Russian Dossier throughout the government is now becoming clear. In the fall of 2016 he was apparently shopping the dossier all over town, to multiple journalists, and to Harry Reid.

Judicial Watch is doing the work of the Justice Department now. They seem to be the only one uncovering the truth. Their court action is now about to reveal the ream of documents, texts, and emails exchanged between Brennan and Harry Reid. Their expected contents are apparently both alarming and wildly incriminating.

After Brennan’s briefing to Reid about the Russian Dossier, Reid immediately wrote the FBI publicly, demanding an investigation of the underlying, salacious, Kremlin planted allegations.

And what was Brennan doing with the dossier anyway. You know, the Fusion GPS Hillary Clinton DNC funded dossier that Glenn Simpson hired British spy Christopher Steele to create.

The collection of lies and Kremlin disinformation that Clinton, and Brennan, and Comey and Strzok and Ohr swallowed like holy water and ran screaming off to use. The totally false and hallucinatory information that a child could have known wasn’t authentic that they paid $9 million dollars for.

They then fed these lies to Brennan, or delivered them, because the coordination between Brennan, and Comey, and Clinton, and John Kerry, and the CIA and the Justice Department and the White House and Fusion GPS is both sketchy and unfathomable and yet clear enough for any idiot to see.

Having held a Top Secret security clearance while in the US Navy, it is not a constitutional right but a conditional privilege. And some of those conditions are solid integrity, dependability, and judgment, none of which Brennan possesses. He should have never been able to pass the background check in the first place, what with his being an avowed communist.

John Brennan: The Conspiracy begins
So Brennan gets the dossier and begins shopping it around. This is the sitting Director of the CIA, actively peddling garbage he had to know was false, and certainly knew was a political hit piece paid for by the opposition campaign.

And here is the crux of the conspiracy. Brennan and his co conspirators actively hatched a plot to destroy the Trump campaign, and when the unthinkable happened and Trump won, attempted to frame and destroy the President of the United States.

It is nothing less than an attempted Coup d’etat. While Brennan is feeding Harry Reid the dossier, John McCain is passing his version on to the FBI. But theres an unspoken complication.

Because Fusion GPS had other clients in addition to Hillary Clinton and the DNC. They also represented the Russian Government efforts to overthrow the Magnitzsky Act. They also had very close ties to Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr..

It’s funny how you all gloss over the fact that the ‘dossier’ started and was paid for by republican operatives during the republican primaries. Also, there was a lot more at play than just the dossier to get the ball rolling.

I’m not saying there aren’t some fishy aspects to the dossier and I have questions/concerns as well, but there’s a heck of a lot more going on than just the dossier.

And what about the massive Russian cyber attacks and email leaks – isn’t that a Coup against American democracy and the foundation of our electoral processes?

– did the dossier make Fredo Jr agree to a meeting with Russians to get dirt on Clinton?

– did the dossier make George Papadopoulos lie to the FBI about his contact with Russian agents who said they had stolen Clinton emails?

“Between March and September 2016, Papadopoulos made at least six requests for Trump or representatives of his campaign to meet in Russia with Russian politicians. In May, campaign chairman Paul Manafort forwarded one such request to his deputy Rick Gates, saying “We need someone to communicate that [Trump] is not doing these trips. It should be someone low-level in the campaign so as not to send any signal.””

Charles Martell III

WRONG Smed . . . . a right-wing media outlet hired Fusion to find dirt on Trump during the Primaries . . . . the primaries ended and so did the relationship.
There was NO Steele and NO Dossier . . . . that is FAKE News.

Perkins Coie, the DNC & Hillarious Klinton Solicitors hired Fusion at the start of the Campaign, Glen Simpson hired Steele and also Bruce Ohr’s wife, Ohr was 4th in command in Obama DOJ.
Steele worked for the FBI and was paid 11 times, before they fired him for lying. Bruce Ohr then became the go-between and co-ordinated Fusion, FBI, Hillary campaign and DOJ Corruption . . .

ALL coming out now . . . do you think Mueller will investigate ? ? ?

Papadopoulos was invited to Britain and paid by the Professor we now know to be an FBI/CIA Asset . . . . the Professor told him the Hillary email story, which Papadopoulos repeated to the Ausi guy who he was later introduced to. The Ausi guy was connected to the Klinton Foundation and relayed the story back to the USA. 100% Heresay and not evidence of anything. Papadopoulos peaded to lyin to the FBI . . . which he is about to retract according to his wife this week.

Trump Tower meeting . . . . lol
Because Fusion GPS had other clients in addition to Hillary Clinton and the DNC. They also represented the Russian Government efforts to overthrow the Magnitzsky Act. They also had very close ties to Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr..

Fusion GPS, Veselnitskaya and setting up Trump Jr.
In fact, the purpose of the Trump Jr. meeting was to push the repeal of the Magnitzsky Act. Veselnitskaya was let into the country by special order of Attorney General Loretta Lynch. It is crucial to note that Veselnitskaya meets with Glenn Simpson and Fusion GPS both before and after the Donald Trump Jr meeting.

NOT TRUE Smed . . . . there WAS NO DOSSIER . . . . there was NO Steele !

DNC & Klinton hired FUSION GPS through their lawyer much after the Primaries.
Then Fusion hired Steele, Bruce Ohr’s WIFE .

Natalia Veselnitskaya . . . also hired Fusion GPS to work on the Adoption thing . . . . Fusion set up the Trump Towers Meeting . . . . Glen Simpson, Bruce Ohr, and other colluded to keep the FBI criminals Strzok & McCabe in the loop after the FBI fired Steele for leaking and lying.

Did you know that the FBI offered Steele $50,000 if he could VERIFY the Dossier . . . . he never collected the money.

Too bad you are so out of the loop today . . . . . when the Grand Juries convene you will get enlightened.

Your last paragraph is ALL Fake News . . . . Papadopoulos was set up by FBI plants . . . . Manafort is on trial today for 2005 events that Rosenstein refused to prosecute a decade ago. Nothing to do with the 2 months+ he worked in the campaign.

You are a product of the insane far-left media . . . .

A larger issue that should be addressed is who processed his original applications to the CIA as someone who voted Communist Party, a group known to seek the overthrow of the US government.

Opposing the current President and working for his defeat through DUE PROCESS and the Constitutional system, is NOT a “clear and present danger” to the US and its constitutional form of government. Rather, Trump’s authoritarian methods and utter unconcern for anyone other than himself are the danger. It’s only YOUR side of this dispute that is painting this as an incipient civil war, with that kind of inflammatory “clear and present danger” language. That’s playing with fire — and Trump is a pyromaniac.
Every time I see this kind of Trump-kowtowing in Ms. Geller’s blog, it makes me sad for the loss of the Free Speech values she used to support. I emphasize, USED TO.
