(FreedomBeacon.com)- According to WestExec Advisors, a strategic advising consulting firm, John Brennan has joined the company’s established and expanding personnel as Principal.
His duties will include advising companies on strategy and geopolitical risk, aiding them in capitalizing on crucial commercial opportunities and dealing with the world’s most pressing crises.
From March 2013 to January 2017, Mr. Brennan was the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director. As the director, he was in charge of intelligence gathering, analysis, covert operations, counterintelligence, and interaction with foreign intelligence services.
Mr. Brennan served as Deputy National Security Advisor and Assistant to President Obama for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism from January 2009 to March 2013, helping shape and coordinate Obama administration policies on counterterrorism, homeland security, pandemics, cyberattacks, and natural disasters.
Mr. Brennan is currently a Distinguished Fellow at Fordham Law School’s Center on National Security, a Distinguished Scholar at the University of Texas at Austin, a member of the International Institute of Strategic Studies’ Board of Trustees, senior intelligence and national security analyst for NBC and MSNBC, and an advisor to several private companies.
Michèle Flournoy, Managing Partner and Co-founder of WestExec Advisors, said that John is a remarkable public servant whose vision and leadership has affected US foreign policy for decades. Every capacity he has served demonstrates his enthusiasm, knowledge, and devotion to the objective. John’s addition to the WestExec team is exciting; he will provide essential insight to our clients.
Brennan’s autobiography offers some insights.
Brennan’s self-assessment is that he is a hot-tempered, working-class, Irish-Catholic lad from New Jersey.
Indeed, he never seems to run out of venom, especially for former President Donald Trump. Brennan also criticizes Mike Pompeo, his replacement as CIA director, because he felt he prioritized commitment to Donald Trump above duty to the nation.
Brennan never could quite understand that he wasn’t the President, and duty to the President is a duty to the nation. You just don’t “go rogue” because you’re a “hot-tempered Irishman.”
With no specifics, Brennan tweeted in September of 2020, “I have to compliment Donald Trump on doing an excellent job at tonight’s debate of demonstrating that he is a despicable ignorant fool.”
According to his memoirs, Brennan donned a diamond earring, used a lot of hashish in Cairo, and voted for Gus Hall, the Communist Party’s presidential candidate. In his early days, he imagined himself a character from Easy Rider and rode his Yamaha motorcycle to work.
Good luck WestExec Advisors.
