The U.S. Department of Justice’s probe into the former CIA chief will hopefully lay bare John Brennan’s sins, which were years in the making. “We got to remember that this is a man that went before Congress under oath as head of the CIA, and had the CIA under his direction spying on U.S. senators. You should look at the tapes of Diane Feinstein, of all people, who was furious about it. Is the CIA tapping into our staffers’ computers? And he said, no, we wouldn’t do that. That was a complete abject lie,” says Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words. The episode also touches on Hanson’s forthcoming book, The Counter Revolution; criticism of Democrats’ shift and rising antisemitism; Sen. Mark Kelly opposing a school-choice tax credit; Senate delays in the John Brennan probe; Trump’s comments about Cuba; and broader concerns about institutions, media, and political accountability.
Oh, Victor, Victor, Victor, why are you so hard on John Brennan? What’s wrong with being a card-carrying member of the Communist Party USA? Why should that distinction alone disqualify him from being Director of CIA?
What’s wrong with lying under oath numerous times to Congress? Why should he not be allowed on national TV to promulgate more lies and disinformation, as they say?
Victor, have a heart and try not to become an arrogant, downright evil, grumpy old man, like John Brennan himself. Maybe, he experienced a difficult childhood. Remember the Sermon on the Mount!
