Former CIA Director John Brennan on Wednesday made his first public comments since the FBI reportedly opened an investigation into him, stating he had not been notified of the investigation before he read about it in the press.
News of the investigation emerged on Tuesday, which has since been confirmed to Just The News, but details on the investigation and alleged misconduct were not immediately clear. However, it comes after the CIA conducted a review that critiqued the actions taken by Brennan related to the Russiagate scandal.
Brennan told MSNBC that he had not been notified of an investigation by the FBI or the Justice Department, but was proud of the work that his CIA did on the investigation into the 2016 election.
“I know nothing about this reported investigation or referral to the DOJ, other than what I’ve read in these press reports. These leaks, which are not really supposed to happen if there is an investigation going on,” he said. “Nobody from the FBI or Department of Justice or CIA has reached out to me at all, so I am just waiting to hear more about what this might be.”
