The director of the Central Intelligence Agency, John Brennan, issued an extraordinary apology to leaders of the US Senate intelligence committee on Thursday, conceding that the agency employees spied on committee staff and reversing months of furious and public denials. Brennan acknowledged that an internal investigation had found agency security personnel transgressed a firewall set up on a CIA network, called RDINet, which allowed Senate committee investigators to review agency documents for their landmark inquiry into CIA torture."

Amazing. We should really just expunge the word "lie" from the language because it really has no meaning anymore.

[jllundqu]

I anyone surprised that the CIA lied to Congress???

I sure as hell ain't surprised....

Not much has changed since the days of Edgar Hoover...

I wish someone from the NSA would publish John McCain's email or Peter King or Mike Rogers. I want to see karma kick them in the ass.

Thank you Edward Snowden for enabling this. His tremendous personal sacrifice should not be in vain.

Nothing will come of this........

What kind of crap is that? I don't think so, that's not how things work.

This appears to be a scare tactic used to keep the Senate committee investigators at bay.

Contempt of Congress...

Following a contempt citation, the person cited is arrested by the Sergeant-at-Arms for the House or Senate, brought to the floor of the chamber, held to answer charges by the presiding officer, and then subjected to punishment as the chamber may dictate (usually imprisonment for punishment reasons, imprisonment for coercive effect, or release from the contempt citation).

Well.. for government... because government is lawless.

John Brennan takes oath on 1787 paper 4 years before Bill of Rights enacted... it's all bull$#@! symbolism by these Zionists & Tyrants who are lawless, but read the White House Press Propaganda quoted:

Here's how the White House pushed the symbolism of this ceremony:



Hours after CIA Director John Brennan took the oath of office – behind closed doors, far away from the press, perhaps befitting his status as America’s top spy – the White House took pains to emphasize the symbolism of the ceremony.

“There’s one piece of this that I wanted to note for you,” spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters gathered for their daily briefing. “Director Brennan was sworn in with his hand on an original draft of the Constitution that had George Washington’s personal handwriting and annotations on it, dating from 1787.”

Earnest said Brennan had asked for a document from the National Archives that would demonstrate the U.S. is a nation of laws.

“Director Brennan told the president that he made the request to the archives because he wanted to reaffirm his commitment to the rule of law as he took the oath of office as director of the CIA,” Earnest said.

What's in means? Well, when Brennan vowed to protect and defend the Constitution, he was swearing on one that did not include the First, Fourth, Fifth, or Sixth Amendments — or any of the other Amendments now included in our Constitution. The Bill of Rights did not become part of our Constitution until 1791, 4 years after the Constitution that Brennan took his oath on.

The CIA needs to be dealt with severely. Unfortunately it probably won't happen although it would be a good topic for Sen. Paul to pursue given the outrage that has been done to the Sentae.

Cut their funding. Jeez.

[DamianTV]

Cut their funding. Jeez.

I wish our CIA Budget would become 'emo' so it would just 'cut itself'.

(yeah, I know that its totally off color...)

[vita3]

Brennan should be forced out.

[dannno]

I'm getting some fairly statist progressives out there agreeing with me about abolishing the CIA over this.
