In Scathing Attack, CIA Director Brennan Warns Trump To “Watch What He Says”

The departing CIA director John Brennan has launched a scathing attack on Donald Trump, warning the President-elect does not fully understand the threat posed to the US by Russia.
“I think Mr. Trump has to understand that absolving Russia of various actions it has taken in the past number of years is a road that he needs to be very, very careful about moving down.“
As Reuters reports, Brennan’s comments, during an interview on “Fox News Sunday,” exposed the simmering tensions between the president-elect and the intelligence community he has criticized and is on the verge of commanding.
“Spontaneity is not something that protects national security interests and so therefore when he speaks or when he reacts, just make sure he understands that the implications and impact on the United States could be profound,” Brennan said.
