John Brennan escapes prosecution in John Durham investigation: Report

Former CIA Director John Brennan appears to have dodged prosecution in U.S. Attorney John Durham's criminal inquiry into the Russia investigation.

After NBC News reported Thursday that Brennan agreed to do an interview with Durham, signaling that his investigation is nearing its end, a lawyer familiar with the situation told NPR that the Obama-era CIA director has been told he is not a target of prosecutors. Instead, this source said, the interview will mainly consist of technical questions.

The news is sure to disappoint some of President Trump's most ardent supporters who believe Brennan and other top officials in the Obama administration sought to sabotage Trump's candidacy in 2016 and later his presidency.

Still, while Brennan may escape an indictment, he may yet be harshly criticized in a report. Attorney General William Barr said he expects "developments" from Durham's inquiry by the end of the summer.

There is no ‘news’. Whether Brennan is prosecuted or not, there are only unidentified comments from sources at NBC and NPR.

Wasn't Donald Trump "told he was not a target" of a Prosecution?  Turned out to be a bald-faced lie, of the kind Police use to improperly extract confessions out of people.
