FLASHBACK: When Democrats Demanded John Brennan Resign

Former CIA Director John Brennan is being held as a martyr by the left after President Trump stripped his security clearance last week.

They're defending Brennan as a truth teller, even a whistleblower, and claiming Trump is infringing on Brennan's First Amendment rights by denying him access to classified information.

It wasn't so long ago that Democrats felt very differently about Brennan.

Sen. Mark Udall became the first senator to make the call when he issued a statement declaring that he had "No choice but to call for the resignation of CIA Director John Brennan."

The New York Times editorial board echoed these sentiments, saying Brennan's head may "Need to roll" over the CIA spying on Senate computers, which Brennan lied about.

Some called Brennan an "Embarrassment" to President Barack Obama, who appointed him as the nation's leading spy.

Others wondered if Brennan knew too much about drone strikes killing innocent civilians, therefore making him immune to firing.
