FBI launches criminal investigations of John Brennan, James Comey: DOJ sources
CIA Director John Ratcliffe referred Brennan for criminal investigation to the FBI, sources told Fox News Digital
By Brooke Singman Fox News
Published July 8, 2025 6:33pm EDT

EXCLUSIVE: Former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey are under criminal investigation for potential wrongdoing related to the Trump–Russia probe, including allegedly making false statements to Congress, Justice Department sources told Fox News Digital.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe referred evidence of wrongdoing by Brennan to FBI Director Kash Patel for potential prosecution, DOJ sources told Fox News Digital.

The sources said that the referral was received and told Fox News Digital that a criminal investigation into Brennan was opened and is underway. DOJ sources declined to provide further details. It is unclear, at this point, if the investigation spans beyond his alleged false statements to Congress.

As for Comey, DOJ sources told Fox News Digital that an investigation into the former director is underway, but could not share details of what specifically is being probed.

The full scope of the criminal investigations into Brennan and Comey is unclear, but two sources described the FBI's view of the duo's interactions as a "conspiracy," which could open up a wide range of potential prosecutorial options.

The FBI and CIA declined to comment.

Neither Brennan nor Comey immediately responded to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The Brennan investigation comes after Ratcliffe last week declassified a "lessons learned" review of the creation of the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA). The 2017 ICA alleged Russia sought to influence the 2016 presidential election to help then-candidate Donald Trump. But the review found that the process of the ICA's creation was rushed with "procedural anomalies," and that officials diverted from intelligence standards.

Turley explains why Comey’s testimony might just ‘trip the wire’ into perjury
July 9, 2025 | Hailey Gomez

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley appeared Tuesday on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” and asked if former FBI Director James Comey’s previous 2020 testimony to the Senate could “trip the wire to perjury.”

Both Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan reportedly have been brought under criminal investigation for false testimony to Congress for potential wrongdoing in relation to the push of the infamous Steele dossier, alleging a conspiracy between Russia and President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, according to Fox News Digital. Replaying a clip of Comey’s 2020 testimony to the Senate, in which he pleaded ignorance to significant problems with the Steele dossier, Fox’s Laura Ingraham called the former FBI director’s answer “dismissive.”

“Now, I remember listening to that testimony and just almost falling out of my chair,” Turley said. “Virtually everything he said was untrue. In fact, the IG reports shredded the FBI and said that they didn’t follow protocol, that they ignored counterintelligence. So they pushed the Steele dossier forward, and these were two of the key individuals who did that.”

“So the question is, does any of this trip the wire to perjury? Both of these are sophisticated players,” Turley added. “You’ll notice that they’re very careful in how they word this. You know, Comey is very careful to say that there wasn’t basically malicious intent. Not that there weren’t mistakes, and time and time again, Comey portrayed himself as ignorant of all of these countervailing sources.”

GREGG JARRETT: CIA report makes it clear Trump was framed
Top spy chiefs reportedly pushed discredited Steele dossier despite internal warnings from Russia experts
 By Gregg Jarrett Fox News
Published July 9, 2025 5:00am EDT

In a blockbuster report, the CIA has belatedly exposed the rank corruption among top intelligence officials who connived to frame President Donald Trump and drive him from office during his first term. 

Their pernicious lie was that Trump colluded with Russia to rig the 2016 presidential election in his favor. The principal piece of so-called evidence was a document known infamously as the dossier. 

It was secretly financed by Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and Democrats, conceived by a foreign agent with a checkered past in espionage, and then brokered to solicitous collaborators at the FBI, CIA, the Department of Justice and the Trump-hating media. 

The dossier was garbage, of course. The FBI largely debunked it before Trump was even sworn in and fired its author, Christopher Steele, for lying as a confidential human source. But the bureau concealed those inconvenient facts under then-Director James Comey and deftly exploited the document as a cudgel to bludgeon the newly elected president. 

Comey was aided and abetted by others in the intelligence community, including CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. This malignant force of unelected officials plotted to smear Trump with what is surely the dirtiest trick in political history. 

Recently, current CIA Director John Ratcliffe declassified and released an internal agency review of the machinations that helped fuel the Russia hoax. In a statement posted on social media, Ratcliffe stated, "All the world can now see the truth: Brennan, Clapper and Comey manipulated intelligence and silenced career professionals — all to get Trump."

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
