I would not get too spun up about this yet because investigators and reviewers in/around Washington DC, have a ton of catching up to do on the material evidence against former CIA Director John Brennan.
Additionally, there is an institutional aversion to targeting anything to do with the CIA because the information needed for most direct evidence is behind a legislative authorized locked door.

That said, Fox News is reporting that a grand jury in DC and/or FL is potentially going to be used to issue subpoenas against John Brennan.
The primary issue surrounds Brennan telling congress in 2023 the “Steele Dossier” was not used in the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), and current DNI Tulsi Gabbard releasing evidence proving it was.
(Fox News) – Justice Department officials in Miami and Washington, D.C., are actively preparing to issue several grand jury subpoenas relating to an investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan, Fox News has learned.
U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida Jason Reding Quiñones is supervising the probe; Fox News is told.
Last month, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, referred Brennan to the DOJ, saying that the former CIA chief “willfully and intentionally” made false statements to Congress.
Jordan accused Brennan of lying in his 2023 Judiciary Committee testimony by denying that the CIA used the Steele dossier in prepping the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russian election interference, and falsely claiming the CIA opposed including the dossier. (more)
President Trump’s January Executive Order says in part, “The Director of National Intelligence, in consultation with the heads of the appropriate departments and agencies within the Intelligence Community, shall take all appropriate action to review the activities of the Intelligence Community over the last 4 years and identify any instances where the Intelligence Community’s conduct appears to have been contrary to the purposes and policies of this order, and prepare a report to be submitted to the President, through the Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and the National Security Advisor, with recommendations for appropriate remedial actions to be taken to fulfill the purposes and policies of this order.” {source}
DNI Tulsi Gabbard has been working on this for nine months.
Tulsi Gabbard retrieved and released a host of documents relating to the fraudulent ICA construct, including the use of the Steele Dossier. Gabbard also declassified and released the email from former DNI James Clapper who was pressuring NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers to go along with the team goal, and blame Russia:
“Understand your concern. It is essential that we (CIA/NSA/FBI/ODNI) be on the same page, and are all supportive of the report -in the highest tradition of “That’s OUR story, and we’re stickin’ to it.” This evening CIA has provided to the NIC the complete draft generated by the ad hoc fusion cell. We will facilitate as much mutual transparency as possible as we complete the report, but, more time is not negotiable. We may have to compromise our “normal” modalities, since we must do this on such a compressed schedule. This is one project that has to be a team sport.”
DNI James Clapper, December 22, 2016
Remember, on July 20, 2025, DNI Tulsi Gabbard gave this interview. Within the interview, Tulsi Gabbard emphasizes how important it is for the people who engaged in a treasonous conspiracy to be held accountable. Gabbard notes there are now whistleblowers from within the IC agencies who have come forward to discuss how the intelligence apparatus was intentionally weaponized.
In her opinion as expressed, there is enough direct evidence now available to the Dept of Justice to begin criminal indictments against all of the participants.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard outlines how the documents released show how the Obama administration actively engaged the Intelligence Community to fabricate a false and malicious conspiracy against the incoming Trump administration.
I like how within the interview Director Gabbard emphasizes within her role she is able to reach into each of the eighteen intelligence agencies and extract documents that pertain to singular issues, in this case the role of Russia in the 2016 election. This cross-silo investigative ability is why the DNI office is so important to revealing information from within individual silos.
Would acts of treason still be tried by a jury?
The language Admiral Rogers uses in his Dec 22, 2016 email sounds to me like he is very politely and in a bureaucratic way telling Clapper that his people have seen almost none of the underlying evidence to back up what Clapper/Brennan/Comey were cooking up and that neither he or his people agree with any of what little they have seen. He says he would stand down on his concerns if what was being developed was solely a CIA/FBI product rather than a joint product that included his agency, the NSA. If they wanted to produce it without his involvement or of his people, he would be happy because any inaccuracies, which he must have suspected would be numerous and overwhelming, would fall on them alone and would not include him or the NSA.
That email alone, and the fact Rogers put it in writing, should have slowed Clapper and his co-conspirators to slow down and rethink what they were doing. At least in a normal world it would have, but they did not think they would ever be caught. Strzok must have heard about an “insurance policy” from those people. He did not come up with that term himself.
All talk is Vance and Rubio for POTUS in 28.
Well, Tulsi is kicking over so many rocks, revealing data points that were speculated about, but never hard evidence until now.
IF Vance or Rubio stumble, Tulsi deserves the open slot.
