Brennan seeks court order to lock in Trump probe records

Former CIA Director John Brennan filed a federal suit in DC asking a court to require the Trump administration to preserve records tied to investigations about him, arguing recent changes to record-keeping threaten turning over essential evidence and could amount to an unconstitutional, vindictive prosecution. The filing frames preservation as prudent amid past actions critics label retaliatory, while a DOJ spokesperson pushed back on the characterization. Brennan's team says he will vigorously challenge any indictment if pursued.

DOJ reassigns lead prosecutor in Brennan case after questioning charges

Brennan urges 25th Amendment move amid Trump's Iran rhetoric

Former CIA Director John Brennan argues that President Trump is unfit for office and that the 25th Amendment was written with him in mind, citing Trump’s volatile Iran threats. More than 70 Democrats have supported invoking the amendment, though its chances are slim due to cabinet loyalty and presidential backing. Brennan is also under an ongoing DOJ inquiry, a context that underscores the political sting of his call in contrast to past related prosecutions (Comey’s charges were later dropped).
