(…) MSNBC’s Nicole Wallace lashed out Jim Jordan and asked Brennan, “New tactic, same story. What is your response to Jim Jordan getting in the action?”
John Brennan said Jim Jordan is getting into the action of Trump’s “revenge tour.”
Well, it’s clear that that’s exactly what he’s doing. He’s trying to get into the action of Trump’s revenge tour. As I’ve said several times on this program, as well as in congressional testimony, I’ve cooperated with all these inquiries and investigations of the government,” Brennan said as he shifted around in his chair.
“I have explained exactly what transpired during the Russian interference in the 2016 election. And Jim Jordan now, I think, is trying to twist my words and misrepresent and mischaracterize the facts as a way to play to and be a supplicant to Donald Trump, which is why he’s making this referral now to the Department of Justice,” he said.
“But as you pointed out, I’ve said before, this ground has been retread and plowed numerous times. And I even wrote about it in my memoir, exactly what happened there,” he added.
Brennan said there is no reason why he would ever lie to Congress.
