John Brennan
Former head of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) John Brennan declared his shame for white men. Thus, he criticized the Republican Party of the country on the air of the MSNBC channel. The video from the program in which Brennan spoke was posted on Twitter by journalist Daniel Chaitin.
The former CIA director commented on whether Republicans really care about the health and safety of law enforcement officials.
“I’m more and more ashamed to be a white man these days when I see what other white men are saying,” Brennan said. He explained that he means primarily the members of the Republican Party. In his opinion, with rare exceptions, none of the representatives of this party in the US Congress “values truth, honesty and straightforwardness.” “They continue to gaslight the country (that is, to convince someone of his own madness – approx.” Lenta.ru “ ), as Donald Trump did earlier,” Brennan added.
Brennan is known as an opponent of the former US president: for example, in 2018, after his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, he called the American leader's behavior “betrayal” and said that he was “hooked” by his Russian colleague.
