Trump is such a petty little B.

Howsomever, any former CIA Dir prolly has enough on Trump to fight back.

This proves the Justice Department isn't being weaponized against the President's political enemies.

More from the cited article ...

... In a letter Tuesday to Attorney General Pam Bondi, the Ohio Republican claimed Brennan, who led the CIA during a probe of Russia's interference in the 2016 election, "knowingly made false statements during his transcribed interview" with the panel back in May 2023. ...

@#4 ... knowingly made false statements ...

There's the issue i have.

Can Rep Jordan show that Mr Brennan "knew" the statements were false?

Asked differently, how does he seem to know what Mr Brennan was thinking at the time he made those statements?

Isn't that MAGAts greatest defense?

Trumpy (and apparently you) believes he won the 2020 election in spite all the evidence which indicates otherwise.

And that is perfectly ok and perfectly acceptable with you.

Why wouldn't this be ok too then?

Gonna love NOT hearing your explanation of that.

If memory serves he lied under oath to Congress. Gen Flynn was charged for less

Only in the current state of US politics and government could a stooge and clown like Gym Jordan be taken seriously. The guy is over-caffeinated and seems incapable of wearing a suitcoat, making him carry the aura of an assistant weekend manager of a K-Mart about him...

Good. I hope he spends the rest of his life in prison.

Of course keeping boxes of TS materials you've repeatedly been asked to return & leaving them in a ballroom bathroom next to a high speed scanner/copier is just nothing, right?
