High Stakes Treason: How John Brennan Compromised American Security for Millions

2025

Synopsis

High Stakes Treason presents verified open-source information to show former CIA Director John O. Brennan conducted a long-term criminal scheme to manipulate intelligence protocols and key counterterrorism (CT) personnel to increase the value of stock he held illegally to make millions. Brennan repeatedly filed, or caused to be filed, false official statements to hide his illegal ownership of stock in an indispensable government contracting company while maintaining his control over the CT initiatives of the Obama Administration—a clear conflict of interest. High Stakes Treason uses Brennan’s own words to describe in detail how he established sweeping new intelligence protocols for the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) and how these protocols enabled complete control over counterterror activities of the entire US government.

The book shows specific examples of how Brennan then apparently used a single unwitting NCTC analyst as his personal cutout to implement the new intel protocols and hide specific intelligence from the FBI and the CIA, enabling successful terror attacks against the United States—including the Boston Marathon Bombing. High Stakes Treason’s use of documentation reveals the identity of the NCTC analyst and documents Brennan’s apparent efforts to conceal his meetings with this analyst through multiple false entries in the White House Visitor Log. It also presents SEC documents which show Brennan was able to increase the value of his stock from $50,000 to $4,850,000 as Congress increased counterterrorism funding after each successful attack on our country.
