Natasha Bertrand: Intel probe puts CIA’s Haspel in a bind

CIA's Gina Haspel in a bind?

Bongino talked about this today on his show.    By the way, Bongino likes to pick on Bertrand.  So, I decided to have a look for myself.

It appears that she is making the assertion that the CIA is somehow "independent" of review unless it is done by the inspector general. 

What did I miss?  Do we now have another branch of government?  Even Congress-critters are not exempt from the law.  The Attorney General can look at anybody he sees fit.  If there is probable cause and an investigation is warranted, then an investigation is called for.  He doesn't have to wait for the Inspector General to clear it first.  He can even look at Congress-critters if he finds cause.

Still, the title of Bertrand's piece says that Haspel is in a bind.  How?  This doesn't involve Haspel at all.  It is about Brennan.

I suppose Bertrand thinks that the CIA has veto power over any release of documents.  Somehow, by Bertrand's theory, Haspel must refuse to release any information about Brennan, as if Brennan is somehow above the law.

If there's probable cause to investigate Brennan then Brennan should be investigated.  This is what is called the "rule of law".    Are Democrats and their accomplices now against the "rule of law"?
