John Brennan was the CIA director under Barack Obama’s administration and his blunt, hatchet man personality drew little favor from those outside his party.
He, of course, had a large role in the Democrat Party lawfare against Donald Trump, then candidate for president, in cases that rolled like a steamroller through much of his first term.
Now he’s under investigation for a variety of potential offenses, such as lying to Congress, and recently lost a lawsuit trying to force the government to bend to his will in its investigation.
Turns out he’s not the only Brennan family member likely to spend some time in courtrooms.
The Daily Mail reports Brennan’s son, Kyle, has been arrested for the alleged possession of child sexual abuse materials.
“FBI agents took Brennan, 40, into custody at his workplace in Herndon, Virginia, on Friday afternoon. A search warrant of his personal cell phone was executed by FBI last night, according to a law enforcement source,” the report said.
A Virginia judge signed the complaint that says the younger Brennan is facing a felony charge, allegedly for the “transportation of child pornography” after child sexual abuse material was discovered on his phone, the report said, citing court documents.
“According to a sworn affidavit entered into court on Friday, the FBI’s review of his iPhone ‘observed approximately 88 images that appeared to depict minor girls, including prepubescent girls, engaged in sexually explicit conduct,'” the report said. “The document says the there was a graphic image of a female toddler and another picture of a ‘fully nude pubescent minor girl on a locker bench.'”

The Daily Caller reported the law enforcement sources confirmed the FBI made the arrest.
The senior Brennan already was the potential subject of a criminal investigation from President Donald Trump’s administration over his role in the Russiagate conspiracy. The Daily Caller said in addition to Brennan, the Trump administration has pursued legal action against various political adversaries and officials, including Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, former FBI Director James Comey, and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
The charges against the ex-CIA chief focuses on whether Obama-era officials conspired to create the false claims that the Trump campaign illegally worked with Russia ahead of the 2016 election – which has since been widely debunked.
Prosecutors also are reviewing evidence about whether he knowingly lied to a House committee in 2023 about the intelligence community’s assessment that Russia sought to aid Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
The senior Brennan, after the investigation was launched, sued Trump accusing his administration of “selective prosecution.”
That case later was thrown out of court.
The allegations are that Brennan, along with a long list of other Obama administration officials up to and including those in the Oval Office, worked desperately to influence the 2016 presidential election, trying to install their hand-picked choice, Hillary Clinton, to follow Obama’s tenure.
They used unsubstantiated claims from Clinton’s campaign that Trump somehow was being influenced by Russia, a claim never documented, to try to divert America’s attention away from Clinton’s own email scandals at the time.
Evidence to date has suggested that Brennan and a long list of others conspired to include a long list of false statements about Trump into an intelligence community assessment at the time.
