Many are already compromised, but I suspect there are a few who are not....hope so for the sake of the country.

He's watching his borrower and money launderer gravely weaken the US security apparatus.

I realize he's not at all well and is recently bereaved, but that would be interesting.

"Many people now asking me to revoke more clearances, to stop this phony probe based on a leaked, fake Dossier. I am willing to do so to Make America Great (and safe) again!

Tune in to see if I win Trump Bingo tomorrow.

This is what happens. Sixty respected, career professionals call this pig out, and a handful of disgraced clowns come to his defense. So you see, "both sides".....blah, blah, blah. That's enough for his low mentality fan KKKlub to be satisfied.

10. "Duty to warn"

I haven't heard anyone make the case (yet) but I personally think intelligence professionals like Brennan and the others who have considerable national security knowledge and experience could/should be covered--though not legally bound--by the concept of "duty to warn." The public needs reliable sources who have the background to know when it's time to blow the whistle; someone on active duty may be afraid to risk being punished for it.
