By Victor Nava | New York Post

Former CIA Director John Brennan and ex-FBI Director James Comey are being investigated for potential criminal conduct related to the 2016 Trump-Russia collusion probe. 

The criminal referral involving Brennan was passed to the FBI by current CIA Director John RatcliffeJustice Department sources told Fox News Digital

The investigation into the Obama-era spy chief involves allegations that he made false statements to Congress and is currently underway. 

It’s unclear if the FBI’s probe into Brennan, one of 51 intelligence officials who falsely suggested Hunter Biden’s laptop could be Russian disinformation, encompasses more than his alleged false testimony to lawmakers. 

Meanwhile, the specific nature of the potential criminal matter involving Comey is unclear but an investigation has been opened.

DOJ sources, however, described the FBI’s view of the role Comey and Brennan played during the investigation of claims that President Trump’s 2016 campaign was colluding with Russia as a “conspiracy,” according to the outlet.
