The Brennan Comey criminal investigation Trump–Russia probe is officially underway. The Department of Justice has launched criminal investigations into former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey over potential wrongdoing tied to the Trump–Russia investigation, including possible false statements made to Congress, according to DOJ sources.

The probes reportedly center on allegations that both men may have made false statements to Congress and manipulated intelligence to fit a politically motivated narrative against then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016. DOJ sources confirmed that Brennan Comey criminal investigation Trump–Russia is now active and ongoing.
Criminal Referral and Intelligence Misconduct
The investigation into Brennan began after CIA Director John Ratcliffe referred evidence of wrongdoing to FBI Director Kash Patel for potential prosecution. DOJ insiders confirmed that the referral triggered the opening of a formal investigation.
The probe into Comey remains more opaque, but sources indicated that the DOJ is examining broader misconduct related to his leadership of the FBI during the early days of the Crossfire Hurricane operation.
Two sources told Fox News Digital that FBI officials view Brennan and Comey’s roles in 2016 as part of a broader “conspiracy,” which could open the door to a wider scope of potential charges.
The Steele Dossier and Intelligence Community Assessment
One of the central pieces of evidence under review is the Steele Dossier—a discredited opposition research document filled with unverified claims about Donald Trump. Newly declassified documents show that John Brennan advocated for including the Steele Dossier in the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), despite internal objections from senior CIA officials.
A newly released CIA review found that Brennan “preferred narrative consistency over analytical soundness” and that including the dossier “undermined the credibility” of the ICA.
Yet in 2023, Brennan testified to Congress that the CIA opposed using the dossier and attempted to keep it separate. This contradiction may form the basis of potential false statement charges against him.
Comey’s Role and Mueller Fallout
James Comey also faces scrutiny for his leadership role during the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation and for the decision to include Steele’s allegations in FISA warrant applications targeting Trump aide Carter Page.
Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report, released in 2019, found no evidence of criminal conspiracy between Trump and Russia, undermining years of media coverage and speculation.
Subsequent investigations by John Durham revealed that the FBI had ignored warning signs that Clinton-aligned operatives were attempting to manipulate the bureau into launching the Trump–Russia hoax for political purposes.
White House: Accountability Is Coming
Following the launch of the Brennan and Comey investigations, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the Biden administration supports holding former Obama-era officials accountable.
“President Trump was right—again,” she said. “Those who engaged in this political scandal must be held accountable for the fraud they committed against President Trump and the lies they told to the American people.”
The Road Ahead
The full scope of the Brennan Comey criminal investigation Trump–Russia remains unclear. The DOJ has not confirmed whether additional charges are being considered or if other Obama-era officials are under review. Both the CIA and FBI have declined to comment.
With high-level intelligence officials now facing possible prosecution, this marks a stunning turn in the long-running saga of the Trump–Russia probe—one that may reshape how Americans view the role of intelligence agencies in domestic politics.
