John Brennan Exposed: CIA Power, Profit & Terror Failures (with Ian Trottier)

Author: Nick Giordano | Political Science Professor & Political Analyst June 17, 2026 Duration: 33:59

John Brennan Exposed: CIA power, profit, and terror failures take center stage in this explosive interview with Ian Trottier. Did America's intelligence bureaucracy protect national security, or did powerful officials manipulate the system while taxpayers paid the price?


In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano speaks with Ian Trottier, author of High Stakes Treason: How John Brennan Compromised American Security for Millions. Trottier lays out his independent open-source research involving SEC filings, official ethics waivers, White House visitor logs, and the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC). This conversation explores the post-9/11 intelligence apparatus, unelected intelligence bureaucrats, the deep state, and how companies like The Analysis Corporation intersect with government contracting oversight.


What You'll Learn In This Episode:

  • The Financial Paper Trail: How Ian Trottier connects John Brennan, CIA power, and alleged stock fraud and financial conflicts of interest.
  • The Documentation: Why SEC filings, handwritten ethics disclosures, and White House visitor logs are central to this case.
  • NCTC System Manipulation: How the National Counterterrorism Center changed intelligence-sharing and centralized counterterrorism protocols after 9/11.
  • Terror Failures: Why Trottier argues intelligence compartmentalization contributed to major terror attacks, including the Boston Marathon bombing.
  • Institutional Accountability: What this case reveals about unelected intelligence bureaucrats, missing congressional oversight, and the modern national security state.


This episode challenges listeners to examine the official documents, question the corporate media narrative, and demand structural accountability from those who wield unchecked intelligence power in America.
