The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

He knew that he was basically cornered with that question, and he couldn't answer that question, and he just lost his mind.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Well, it's not really a matter of what they reveal.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

It's what they demonstrate.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

These are like a level of a receipt of a factual event that is...

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

I don't think I've ever seen anything like this in American history where we have the personal communications between the four senior intelligence leaders for the NSA, the CIA, the FBI and the DNI, all essentially admitting to intelligence.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

writing intelligence at the highest level that was deliberately meant to influence or impact the future president the incoming president's presidency because that's really what you know one of the things that i try and make clear to people is is that this wasn't about trump this was actually about an influence operation or in the intelligence community we'd call it an offensive counterintelligence operation

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

that they perpetrated against the American people.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

So they did this to everyone.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Democrats and Republicans, they did this to everyone to essentially provide an intelligence community assessment that said, in fact, Putin favored Trump and that Putin had ordered this, this influence operation to help Trump get elected.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Well, that was not demonstrated in any of the intelligence reporting.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

And they basically fabricated it from whole cloth.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Then they put it in the intelligence community assessment, which was then given to Congress, which they knew then would leak to the public.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

And then they also leaked it to the media themselves through the FBI leaks to, again, leak out to the American people that, you know, Trump was supposedly working, you know, along with the Russians were actually supporting him, which was totally not the case.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Yeah.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Well, and I think also it played a huge part in the in his second election in the 2020 election, because all of that was still out there.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

And the Biden administration, you know, they had never been able to get this information out.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

So ultimately, it was that's why I make very clear that this was not about Trump.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

Trump personally, this was about an influence operation against the American people to damage his presidency, make him ineffective as a president, ultimately because they just hated him.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

And then at the same time, to influence the American people into voting against him or not supporting him.

The Dan Bongino Show
Thomas Speciale: The Man Behind John Brennan's Meltdown | Episode 167

And we saw that in the midterms.
