Former CIA Director John Brennan has sued the Trump administration , asking a federal court to order the government to preserve records related to investigations into him as he prepares for the possibility of criminal charges he says would amount to political retaliation.
In a lawsuit filed in federal court in Washington on Tuesday, Brennan's attorneys argued that the administration has changed records-retention practices in ways that depart from longstanding norms and could jeopardize documents needed to challenge any future indictment.
