Listeners, the past few days have brought major developments involving John Ratcliffe, the current Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. On October twenty first, the House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan formally referred former CIA Director John Brennan to the Department of Justice for prosecution, citing false testimony related to the Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian election interference. This referral alleges that Brennan knowingly provided incorrect statements about the CIA’s involvement with the widely debated Steele dossier.
Several declassified records released this summer detail how Brennan, directing CIA operations, pushed to include information from the Steele dossier in the most classified version of the assessment, despite internal objections from career professionals. This annex was reportedly coordinated by a CIA officer and incorporated under both Brennan’s and then FBI Director James Comey’s directions. According to American Thinker, Brennan’s testimony in May two thousand twenty three denied CIA involvement with the dossier, and statements from two thousand seventeen tried to establish that it was not a basis for the intelligence community’s conclusions. However, the newly released evidence indicates that this was misleading.
Jim Jordan’s criminal referral also accuses Brennan of a longstanding pattern of making materially false statements to Congress, insisting that the truthfulness of testimony is vital for congressional oversight. In response, Ratcliffe’s CIA released an assessment this past June concluding the two thousand seventeen Intelligence Community Assessment was not only misleading and politically biased but also diverged from proper intelligence analytic processes. Ratcliffe observed that Brennan played a heavy-handed role, repeatedly urging agencies toward consensus and steering the document toward his own narrative, while dissenting voices were sidelined.
On social media, John Ratcliffe publicly thanked career CIA officers who compiled the review, stating that their findings reveal Brennan, Comey, and Clapper manipulated intelligence and suppressed professional analysts in an effort to advance their own agenda during the Trump-Russia investigation. The review exposes procedural anomalies, the hand-picking of analysts, and aggressive political involvement in intelligence production. As of this week’s news cycle, the Justice Department is considering potential charges against Brennan for his role in these events and his Congressional testimony.
Listeners, these revelations have serious implications for CIA operations under John Ratcliffe and for the transparency and integrity of U.S. intelligence reporting. The spotlight remains on the Department of Justice’s next steps and any fallout for U.S. institutions.
