During an appearance on “Fox & Friends” on Friday, March 27, Bondi refrained from confirming whether there is an active investigation. However, she emphasized that important documents are now in the possession of the DOJ. When asked if Brennan is under investigation, Bondi chose her words carefully but acknowledged a significant development.
“I can’t talk about whether we do or do not have a pending case nor a pending grand jury,” she said. “What I can say publicly is that we have received transcripts from the House. Those had to be declassified.” She added that the DOJ is now waiting on documents and transcripts from the Senate involving Brennan, who is thought to be a significant player in the ‘Russia collusion’ hoax ahead of President Trump’s first term.
Earlier, the House Intelligence Committee has voted to transfer several classified hearing transcripts to the Justice Department in response to a formal request, indicating a growing federal investigation. “The last thing I’ll say on that is no one in this country is above the law,” Bondi told the Fox & Friends panel.
In the same interview, Bondi also discussed a related enforcement priority: denaturalization. While not directly connected to Brennan, she emphasized the administration’s focus on removing citizenship from individuals who obtained it fraudulently or committed serious crimes.
“We’re going to have a safe country. We’re going to have an honest country, and we’re moving to denaturalize them as fast as we can and get them out of our country,” she told the panel.
At one point, Bondi noted that the DOJ is currently looking at a suspect who allegedly liked about a marriage in order to obtain citizenship, which led many to suspect she was talking about Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.). Reports for years have said she wed her brother in order to get him into the U.S., while lying about who he really was.
“Yeah, it’s not easy… we would love to get some tougher laws from Congress on this. We’ve been talking to some members… One of them we’re looking at now… They lied about their marriage to get in this country. You can’t do that,” she said. “Being a citizen in our country is a privilege; it’s not a right.”
Meanwhile, in an interview with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson that aired Friday, Vice President JD Vance stated unequivocally that Omar committed fraud to enter the United States and that she is a central figure in the mounting fraud among her Somali community that is being investigated and prosecuted in Minneapolis.
“Today, for the first time, we got 100% on the record confirmation that Rep. Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud,” Johnson wrote on the X platform that included a clip from an interview with Rob Schmitt, a Newsmax TV host.
“Lying on your immigration forms is an immediate denaturalization. Vice President JD Vance says DHS is exploring enforcement. Ilhan needs to be deported,” Johnson continued.
Vance told Johnson: “Ilhan Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America. … She has been at the center of a lot of the worst fraudsters in the Somali community.”
President Trump appointed Vance to be the first-ever ‘fraud czar,’ and in the short time he’s been at the job, he has uncovered tens of billions in fraudulent payments to ghost companies and individuals in California and Minnesota, both Democrat enclaves.
