Scandalous! John Thune and Tom Cotton Are Blocking DOJ from Obtaining Brennan Transcripts before US Senate Committees – Impeding Investigation into Former CIA Chief
With friends like John Thune and Tom Cotton — who needs enemies?
John Solomon from Just the News broke the news on Wednesday that Majority leader John Thune and Senator Tom Cotton are blocking DOJ investigator Joe diGenova from obtaining the transcripts of John Brennan’s interviews with the Senate Judiciary and Intelligence Committees.
This is holding up the investigation into Brennan and his roll in the deep state coup to take down President Trump in 2016.
Apparently, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche refuses to authorize a subpoena to the US Senate to obtain the documents.
What is going on?
John Solomon broke this news earlier on Wednesday on The War Room with Steve Bannon.
John Solomon: I’m going to go back to being a reporter for a second. I do not know this information from anything I’ve gained in government. I can tell you with 100% certainty that Republicans are obstructing the investigation into weaponization. There are two Republicans I can name by name, Senator John Thune and Senator Tom Cotton. They have refused for months, four months now.
The first request came in late January, early February. They are refusing thus far to provide to Joe DiGenova, to the prosecutors in Florida, to the Miami U.S. Attorney, to the Justice Department, the transcripts of John Brennan’s interviews with the Senate Judiciary— Senate Intelligence Committee.
They have refused to do so. I’m gonna call out a third name because I don’t understand the Justice Department’s behavior. When a body that’s separate of the executive branch doesn’t comply, Every other time in American history, go back to Iran-Contra, go back to Watergate, the Justice Department subpoenas the Congress.
For some reason, the acting Attorney General, who wants to be the permanent Attorney General, has not authorized a subpoena to the United States Senate to get those documents.
Those documents will allow the prosecutors in Miami to decide whether the charges are warranted against John Brennan.
