As we noted yesterday, lawyers representing former CIA Director John Brennan are sending proactive letters to the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Florida {SEE HERE}. However, some of the information included in the letters intended to be exculpatory is actually damning against their defense position.
You have to go deep in the weeds to see it, but if you understand the details of the events, the information being revealed by Brennan’s lawyers is the opposite of helpful to his case. As an example, there is a citation included in a footnote of the December 22, 2025, [fn #20 page 6] letter that links to a March 31, 2022, letter sent to John Durham.
Here’s page 6 of the 2025 letter.
Compare the underlined section to the 2022 letter sent to John Durham.
In 2025, Brennan is telling the Florida court the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) conclusion was confirmed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller in a “very serious review.” However, in 2022 Brennan told John Durham that Robert Mueller never interviewed him or offered an assessment of the ICA; Mueller just regurgitated it.
So, which is it?
These contradictions are throughout both of the letters when you compare them side-by-side. In 2022, former CIA Director John Brennan was trying to escape the Durham review. In 2025, Brennan is trying to escape a grand jury review.
[We are aware that the U.S Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Jason Reding Quiñones, has access to the CTH public library of research into all of these historic events.]
There are other citations in the 2022 letter that are certainly worth reviewing, because the legally binding statements made by John Brennan at the time have been shown to be false in 2025.
Another of the claims, in the 2022 letter to John Durham, highlights why it was critical for the CIA to assist in the capture and arrest of Julian Assange in 2019.
The lawyers representing John Brennan in the above 2022 letter apparently did not know the DNC emails were provably not hacked by Russia, unless they are claiming that Seth Rich (DNC staff) and Julian Assange (Wikileaks) were working for the Russian government.
John Brennan asserts a “definitive determination” that Russia was involved in the theft of the DNC emails, and across the intelligence community that determination was “unanimous.” That assertion, by Brennan, underpinning the “Russian interference narrative”, opens up the entire DNC email issue for Jason Quiñones to explore.
The DNC hired Crowdstrike to investigate the leak/hack; the James Comey FBI never looked at the DNC servers; and Crowdstrike told the Senate there was no evidence of a hack or outside intrusion. Perhaps Quiñones will finally highlight these contradictions and get to the bottom of it? Because, after all, this is part of Brennan’s ICA defense.
What Brennan did not realize we would discover when he wrote the letter in 2022:
In December of 2016, President Obama turned to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and CIA Director John Brennan with a request to change the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) and blame the Russians for election interference in the prior presidential election. Brennan gave the task of assembling the fraudulent intel to a CIA analyst named Julia Gurganus.
Subsequently, inside the CIA the National Intelligence Council (NIC) and the Directorate of Analysis began working on a pretext that would create the impression for the misleading Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), as demanded by Obama, Clapper and Brennan – ultimately constructed by Julia Gurganus.
Inside the National Intelligence Council, one of the key figures who helped create the ICA fabrication was a CIA analyst named Eric Ciaramella.
You might remember the name Eric Ciaramella from the 2019 impeachment effort against President Trump. However, in 2016/2017 Eric Ciaramella was a CIA deputy national intelligence officer for Russia and Eurasia on the CIA’s National Intelligence Council, at the time the fraudulent Intelligence Community Assessment was created.
Oh look, there’s another trail for U.S Attorney Jason Quiñones to follow.
What would Julia Gurganus and Eric Ciaramella have to say about putting the ICA together?
Merry Christmas!

As the saying goes, give him enough rope to hang himself. It’s just so Trumpian
Sundance with his in-depth research and instant recall should be engaged by the US attorneys office in all of these prosecutions.
No one is better equipped.
And he hasn’t got even one client paying $1,000 / hour for him to research the important details of the investigation-case. Sundance your gift to us Treepers is invaluable.
Just think, if they had not raided Mar a Lago, everything would be based out of DC and go nowhere.
How close to 110% chance is it that Trump laid a trap for them to lure them from their DC lair and raid Mar a Lago?
All you need is one loose thread that is out of their control.
My theory: Brennan’s letter to the judge was never intended to bolster the facts of Brennan’s defense. It had an entirely different purpose.
It was intended as a loyalty-test and a veiled threat to the judge.
The letter is full of myths, narratives and talking points endlessly repeated by the Leftist media, Dem politicians and “influencers.” The fact that these myths are already disproven is not a flaw, it’s the point of the letter. Affirming these talking points is the equivalent of a loyalty oath, a testament of blind faith or putting on a team jersey. Challenging these talking points is a declaration you oppose the powers that be.
It’s also full of reminders Brennan is a Capo in the IC Mafia.
The letter is actually asking the judge: “are you onboard with the official narrative or are you going to be a troublemaker?” “Are you going to ‘stand for Democracy!’ or are you going to listen to the bad orange man?” “Are you going to let little things like facts, law and evidence prevent us from getting rid of the greatest threat in American history, more dangerous than Pearl Harbor and 9/11 combined?” “Judge are you going to declare yourself with us (the CIA) or against us?”
In other words, it is a totally deniable but very real challenge and a threat. Brennan is a thug. This is how thugs operate.
And since the letter was immediately “leaked” out to the NYT another part of the message is that now all the IC, all the DC political Swamp-dwellers, all the power-brokers know you have been presented with a challenge.
“Six ways from Sunday” rules apply.
All the Leftist paramilitary groups and random crazies now also know the judge was just challenged. They can also be expected to apply pressure for the judge to “play ball.” Remember how the Left made open threats before the 2020 election that if it didn’t go to Biden then “cities will burn?”
The letter also puts the prosecution team and DoJ on notice.
The letter is not meant to serve justice. It’s meant to overturn justice, make justice irrelevant, substitute thuggish power for justice.
What you state may very well be what is taking place and what Brennan wants to portray.
I’m curious about why Wainstein would include information that is not helping his client.
Wainstein bounced from private practice until he was nominated by Biden in 2022 as Chief Intel Officer at DHS up until January 2025. Prior to that he was last in government in 2009.
Is it possible Wainstein is just not familiar with the amount of detail of what Brennan was doing? Could he be that sloppy?
Brennan, the anti-American 💩-bag commie and muslim sympathizer needs to pay a VERY heavy price for his subversive and extremely harmful activities committed against the Republic, ESPECIALLY when he was CIA Station Chief in Riyadh Saudi Arabia where be APPROVED THE VISAS of some of the 9/11 terrorists, against the advice of his field agents to NOT do so, as they had reliable intel that these persons were up to no good and affiliated with terrorist activities and organizations.
Robin, I agree. This poor excuse for a man belongs in GITMO. HE IS A TRAITOR TO OUR COUNTRY.
I just hope I live long enough to see justice done. He did a real disservice to ALL of America. He should pay for it.
I’ve been waiting for 10 years to see perp walks. I would pay good money to see Brennan, Clapper, Strok, McCabe, et al in chains and hanging from nooses for treason. Obama would be the cherry on top!
He should be hung from the nearest tree or light pole.
What an amazing Christmas gift, Sundance! It is icing on the cake, so to speak. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you too!!
Lots of thots and comments regarding crooks lying and not being able to keep track of them, that they are arrogant in their abilities to do so, creating more lies to cover past lies, until ultimately collapsing their house of cards. But, keep this thot in mind…..they have influence/control over major players in that power base, and when trapped, they will pull those strings ( influences ).
I have confidence that there is a distinct level of political, civil, professional, and cultural separation between PDJT and Team and the dregs of the NWO to include Brennan, Clapper, etc., etc. The degree of light that is being shone on RATS Brennan and conspirators is very bright, more than a prosecutor or interested public could normally expect to see. I believe that is due to the ” delayed prosecution demands ” that we the people have been clamoring for. Trump and team have lined up the ducks, and are starting to march them forward. However, don’t believe that their will not be ” hunters ” ready to take some shots. Brennan and team are facing serious trouble, they have a long history of deceit, deception, and killing fields to support them. I have no doubt that ” they ” will toss a black swan into the line.
Sundance, you and your team are definitely a National Treasure. Merry Christmas to all the CTH team, contributors, and readers!
Will US attorney pursue those avenues are will he just run out the clock like all the rest ?
Ipred that hen will pursue but DOJ Barbie will review the case and let the clock expire.
Brennan and his lawyers have resorted to the “Bart Simpson defense”:
“I didn’t do it. Nobody saw me do it. There’s no way you can prove anything.”
Recall that Mark Zaid represented Eric Ciaramella, the Trump-Ukraine impeachment ‘whistleblower.’
https://x.com/C_3C_3/status/2003674593995944077
Zaid represents the deep state.
His fingerprints are EVERYWHERE.
So? Nothing will happen, no consequences for any of them. Why pretend? Has anything changed since the posts here telling us nothing will happen to the Lawfare gang? Trump is here for theee more years, then the deluge. Merry Christmas.
Don’t be a bummer on Christmas Eve. The reveal is joyous, we’ll see what God has in mind
I love the fact that they are so arrogant they believe no one is smarter than them. You a-holes neglected what a determined brilliant patriot researcher, who is truthful and determined can do to expose all of you. He has kept records from the start and he seems to have a memory of God and the angels. I suspect more people will be exposed with truth very soon. (Can Obama be revealed as treasoness to the U.S.? And will he punished?)
Thank You Sundance for supporting our excellent President Trump and defending the USA, you are bequeathed a gift from God, and I can’t thank you enough. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Karma!
The Durham letter, page 6. Foot note 11.
A declassified document, declassified by Radcliffe, another nonsensical set of occurrences.
Brennen was aware of the Hillary plan, sent the fbi a referral.
They all knew, all of it was bull. Well, the parties with the special tickets to access the information.
Foot note 6 on page 5.
“…common set of clearance tickets…”.
