Barr: CIA 'stayed in its lane' ahead of launch of FBI's Russia probe
CNN)Attorney General William Barr said he had concluded that the CIA had "stayed in its lane" before the FBI launched its "Crossfire Hurricane" counterintelligence investigation into potential ties between President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign and Russia in an interview with the Wall Street Journal published Friday.

Former CIA Director John Brennan responded to Barr's comments about the CIA on CNN Friday evening, saying, "It really is courageous of Bill Barr to say this after he has already announced that he's going to be departing office," and said he thinks the Durham investigation is a "trolling exercise."
"Clearly, they couldn't find anything that had any type of wrongdoing associated with it," Brennan told Wolf Blitzer on "The Situation Room," questioning why he had been subjected to hours of interviews.
"This is something that I was very confident in, because CIA and our other partners in this investigation did everything possible, according to our authorities, to try to understand what the Russians were doing and then try to undercover it," he said.
