As Twitchy reported, former CIA director John Brennan responded to the loss of his security credentials with this tweet:
This action is part of a broader effort by Mr. Trump to suppress freedom of speech & punish critics. It should gravely worry all Americans, including intelligence professionals, about the cost of speaking out. My principles are worth far more than clearances. I will not relent. https://t.co/TNzOxhP9ux

We thought The Weekly Standard’s Stephen Hayes’ thread about Brennan being “an incredible hack” was the most savage thing we were going to see on the topic Thursday, but that’s because former CIA security contractor Kris “Tanto” Paronto hadn’t weighed in yet. And he weighed in hard.

You mean it wasn’t a spontaneous protest over a YouTube video all this time?
There are few men in the world like you Kris. Now you stand alone with your brothers. Brennan stands alone moving into the cold. He’s scared. Never been on the spot. Never risked it all. Thx Kris. Brennan will be left as a remnant casualty. He’s no one.

You are an American hero, Kris. What you did in Benghazi was about the most honorable and brave thing a human being could ever do. I pray and thank God for you guys every day.

Thank you Kris, there are a whole lot of us that know the TRUTH because of you and the boys that were there. I and many others hear you loud and clear.

Brennan is very worried about the upcoming criminal investigation into his conduct

Let him keep his clearance, provided he sits for a polygraph.

I wish I could like this 1 million times…Benghazi was the biggest coverup and anyone in our government that closed their eyes to it should be ashamed of themselves ..God rest those men???

Soldiers are of no concern to the likes of Clinton and Brennan. We’re tools to be used when necessary and to be thrown away if we break. They could care less, they simply get another tool without one iota of remorse.

Brennan should've been fired after his failures as CIA Station Chief in Saudi Arabia when he ignored threats against Khobar Towers. Bush should've fired him for omitting info from intelligence briefings leading up to 9/11. Obama should've fired him after he ignored ISIS growth.
