Former Obama CIA Director John Brennan was at a conference at George Mason University on Thursday when he had an experience he likely didn't expect.
Thomas Speciale was also at the conference. Speciale is a national security consultant and a former senior advisor to the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
Brennan was not happy with Gabbard's actions after she became Director of National Intelligence, including when she cleaned house and declassified information about the Russia collusion hoax.

Speciale confronted Brennan twice during an event at the conference that included Michael Hayden, another former director of the CIA. Speciale put Brennan on the spot, asking about the inclusion of the infamous Steele dossier in the intelligence community assessment (ICA). Brennan had a meltdown.
Warning for graphic language:

"I don't know who put you up to this," he ranted. "I don't know who you are, but it's a bunch of bullsh**t that you just passed on."
Speciale replied, "The emails are clear, sir."
That prompted Hayden to start shouting, "Next! Next! Next!" Brennan then began waving his hand to dismiss Speciale and called what he said "disinformation."
Speciale later asked Brennan another question in a face-to-face confrontation about why Brennan signed the infamous intel letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials about the Hunter Biden laptop.

“Why sign that?” Speciale asked Brennan. Brennan then moved toward him and began stabbing his finger toward Speciale's chest.
“And you misrepresented that. We never said it was disinformation. We said it was Russian influence operations, which is what they do. There’s a big difference between influence operations...," Brennan insisted. But he walked off when Speciale brought up former FBI Director James Comey.
Speciale told the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF), “I wanted answers to basic questions for my own personal interest. These are the people that as career intelligence people we looked up to. Why would you do these things?”
I think Brennan is looking like he's nervous.

According to Jordan's letter:
Brennan’s assertion that the CIA was not ‘involved at all’ with the Steele dossier cannot be reconciled with the facts. As the newly declassified documents show, a CIA officer drafted the annex containing a summary of the dossier; Brennan made the ultimate decision, along with then-FBI Director James Comey, to include information from the dossier in the ICA; and, as discussed further below, Brennan overruled senior CIA officers who objected to the inclusion of the dossier material.
