Nobody is above the law

Isn't that what we were told?  A vital review from Byron York: "How John Brennan lied to Congress."

Taken together, these passages show that significant portions of Brennan’s congressional testimony about the dossier and the Intelligence Community Assessment were untrue. When he said the dossier “was not in any way used as a basis for the Intelligence Community Assessment” — that was untrue. When he said “I was not involved in analyzing the dossier at all” — that was untrue. When he said “the CIA was not involved at all with the dossier” — that was untrue. When he said “The CIA was very much opposed to having any reference or inclusion of the Steele dossier in the Intelligence Community Assessment” — that was untrue.

Here’s the bottom line, which Republicans have believed for a long time. In the politically supercharged atmosphere of late 2016 and early 2017, the FBI and CIA both knew the dossier was BS. They knew they had no business including it in their assessment of Russia’s 2016 activities. But they included it anyway because it told them what they wanted to hear — that Donald Trump had colluded with Russia. And then, under oath before Congress, John Brennan lied about it.

I hear 51 intelligence experts say Brennan is innocent, so it must be true.
