Grand Jury Subpoenas Issued in Probe of Fmr CIA Head Brennan

The focus of the probe is on Brennan's 2023 testimony to Congress about the intelligence community's 2017 assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election.
Lawmakers led by House Republicans claim Brennan misrepresented the CIA's role in using the Steele dossier in that 2017 intelligence report.
The subpoenas went out to witnesses shortly after the DOJ appointed Joe diGenova to formally take over the criminal probe.

The Justice Department last year received a criminal referral from Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, the Republican chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, alleging that Brennan made false statements before the panel in 2023 about the preparation of the intelligence community assessment.
