Bondi confirms DOJ has received criminal referral alleging Brennan perjury over Steele dossier

Attorney General Pam Bondi said she received a criminal referral from the House Judiciary Committee alleging former CIA Director John Brennan lied to Congress, confirming the receipt during a hearing before the panel on Wednesday.

Bondi was responding to committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, who directly asked the attorney general if Brennan would be indicted. The DOJ has for months been investigating Brennan and several others over the origins of the 2016 Trump-Russia probe.

"What I can confirm is that we have received a referral from you, Chairman Jordan, to investigate John Brennan," Bondi said.

"His attorneys have made some public statements, but the department is still bound, of course, by our longstanding policy of not discussing matters," Bondi said. "What I will say today I can't confirm nor deny whether there's a pending investigation, but what I will say [is] that no one is above the law. Weaponization has ended."
