Former CIA director criticizes Intel Committee and Trump during visit to Salt Lake City

That report, also criticized by Democrats on that committee, said there was no evidence of collusion between Russia and Trump campaign in the run-up to the presidential election.

Brennan’s speech, “The Gritty Truth: Counter-terrorism in an Era of Instability,” at the 2018 World Leaders Lecture, touched on a number of topics surrounding globalization in the digital age and its impact on politics and world affairs.
