Americans watched The Right Squad zero in on a development long overdue: former CIA director John Brennan has been formally referred to the Department of Justice for potential criminal prosecution. The referral, made public by those following the declassified materials, came from CIA Director John Ratcliffe and has sent shockwaves through Washington’s permanent bureaucracy. Conservatives who have warned for years about politicized intelligence finally see daylight as career officials and political appointees are forced to account for their actions.
Declassified documents and a CIA “lessons learned” review laid bare how the Steele dossier was shoehorned into the Intelligence Community Assessment despite serious analytic objections, creating a false narrative that damaged an entire presidency. Director Ratcliffe’s move to declassify key records peeled back the curtain on how analysts were sidelined and political considerations trumped sober tradecraft. Even voices inside the intelligence world raised alarms about the manipulation of assessments, which is precisely why these criminal referrals matter to every patriotic American.
Reports now indicate the FBI has opened criminal investigations into Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey, examining allegations that include false statements to Congress and other potential violations. If the bureau and prosecutors do their jobs, we will finally see whether the people who weaponized intelligence to target political opponents are held to the same standard as ordinary citizens. This isn’t vengeance; it’s accountability — the bedrock of the rule of law that the left tried to erode for years.
For conservatives, this moment is validation that patriots in and out of government refused to let a corrupt narrative stand forever. The current administration’s broader effort to dismantle the so-called “deep state” and follow the facts wherever they lead shows a seriousness about cleaning house that previous White Houses lacked. Washington elites who trafficked in selective leaks and politicized assessments can no longer hide behind bureaucracy and secrecy.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard also stepped forward, sending declassified evidence to the Justice Department and calling out what she described as a treasonous conspiracy by Obama-era officials to manufacture and weaponize intelligence. That referral added fuel to the growing consensus that the Russia collusion narrative was systematically corrupted and that powerful figures must answer for it. Grassroots patriots should be heartened that different parts of government are finally collaborating to expose the truth.
Now the onus is on the Justice Department to move without fear or favor: investigate fully, charge when warranted, and prosecute without political bias. No one should be above the law, and if these investigations reveal criminality, the American people deserve to see justice carried out swiftly and transparently. Washington’s swamp has been allowed to calcify for too long; restoring integrity to our intelligence and justice systems means following facts, not protecting friends.
This is a defining moment for patriots who love this country and refuse to let institutions be turned into weapons against the American people. Keep watching, stay engaged, and demand transparency from the agencies that once hid these actions from the public. The fight for honest government is not over, but for the first time in years, it looks like the scales of justice might finally start tipping back in favor of the truth.
