Trump Lawyer to Oversee Probe of Former CIA Director John Brennan

April 18, 2026 | Written by: | Category: Politics

A Trump lawyer will oversee a Justice Department probe into former CIA Director John Brennan after the lead prosecutor was removed.

The lead prosecutor in the Justice Department's investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan has been removed from the case, according to a DOJ official. A lawyer who advised President Trump on efforts to challenge the 2020 election will now oversee the probe.

Joe diGenova, described as a Trump loyalist, is reportedly being dispatched to lead the controversial investigation. The probe targets President Trump critic John Brennan and is said to be based in Florida.

DiGenova's prior work included advising President Trump on overturning the 2020 election results. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
