Former CIA chief John Brennan fired back on Tuesday after President Trump questioned why witnesses in the House's impeachment inquiry would have been "concerned" with his phone call with Ukraine's president.
In a tweet, Brennan urged U.S. intelligence officials to remain "resolute" in the face of criticism from the president, who has spent the past several days sharply criticizing a whistleblower and others who raised concerns about his conversations with Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelesnky about opening investigations targeting Democrats.
"As in previous times of National peril, we rely on our military, diplomats, intelligence officials, law enforcement officers, & other courageous patriots to protect our liberties, freedom, & democracy. May they stay resolute & strong despite corrupt political headwinds they face," Brennan tweeted.
