John Brennan Subpoenaed for Florida Grand Jury in DOJ Probe
The subpoena is part of a broader Justice Department probe into whether Trump investigators conspired to violate his civil rights, his lawyer said.
Former CIA Director John Brennan has been subpoenaed to testify on October 15 before a Florida grand jury as part of a Justice Department investigation into whether officials conspired against President Donald Trump.
The Justice Department is examining whether officials who investigated Trump over the last decade, including regarding Russia election interference and classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, conspired to deprive him of civil rights.
Attorney Ken Wainstein disclosed last Thursday that prosecutors presented the subpoena; prosecutor Joe resigned the same day from the "grand conspiracy" investigation amid reported White House and Justice Department displeasure.
Brennan remains a target in a separate Washington-based investigation into whether he lied to Congress in 2023, a claim he and his attorneys have consistently denied while seeking a court order preserving investigative records.
This subpoena is among a flurry issued in recent weeks, with investigator Kurt Olsen confirming the subpoena relates to the broader probe examining potential civil rights violations.
CIA X-Director John Brennan received a summons to testify in a criminal case known as Grand Conspiracy before a federal grand jury in Fort Pierce, reported by CBS News.
