mr40, since Brennan apologized to Feinstein 4 years ago, why bring that issue up.

Feinstein was right: CIA admits it hacked Senate computers

Internal investigation finds the intelligence agency spied on Senate staffers working on upcoming torture report

July 31, 2014 5:23pm (UTC)

According to a new report from McClatchy, the CIA's internal investigation confirms that Senate Intelligence Committee chairwoman Dianne Feinstein was right when she claimed earlier this year that the agency had hacked into the computers of members of the committee's staff.

The internal investigation finds that action on the part of CIA agents was improper, and McClatchy reports that CIA Director John Brennan personally apologized to Feinstein and the committee's vice chairman, Georgia Republican Saxby Chambliss, behind closed doors on Tuesday.

Apparently there were only three agents and two lawyers who stretched the boundaries in that case, and there is no decent reason to keep hammering Brennan on it now.

And yes. Cohen's tape testimony needs corroboration. That's been obvious from the start.
