FBI questions CIA officers in investigation related to John Brennan and Russia assessment

The FBI has questioned multiple CIA officers as part of an investigation involving former CIA Director John Brennan. Several of the questioned CIA employees worked on a 2017 intelligence assessment that concluded Russia interfered in the 2016 election to benefit Donald Trump. The questioning appears focused on the origins and conclusions of that intelligence report.
