Brennan directed publication of 'implausible' reports claiming Putin preferred Trump in 2016, House found

UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – The report reveals CIA Director Brennan overruled objections to include the discredited Steele dossier in the 2016 intelligence assessment, influencing the narrative on Russian election interference.

  • A bombshell congressional report published Wednesday alleges that John Brennan ignored warnings and ordered the publication of a 'substandard' report claiming Putin 'aspired' to help Trump win in 2016.
  • Brennan’s push to include the Steele dossier in the ICA was despite assertions of no direct evidence and objections from analysts, according to the report.
  • The ICA was prepared by five CIA analysts, demonstrates rushed production, and was not properly coordinated, according to the report.
  • Probes have been opened into top intelligence officials, including Brennan and Comey, over their roles in the Russia investigation, indicating ongoing criminal inquiries.
  • Its impact suggests the long-lasting emboldening of enemies of constitutional governance, according to the report.
