On Friday, Brennan said that the Russian source who said that Putin personally ordered a campaign to influence the 2016 election would be outed if Barr released information on the Obama administration spying on the opposition party.
What this means is, Brennan compromised the fact that they have such a source. In all likelyhood, this is all the info the Russians need to figure out who that source is and neutralize him. He very likely just got that guy killed.
The Supreme Court overturned the 2002 criminal conviction of Enron Corp.'s accounting firm yesterday, nullifying with a single stroke one of the government's biggest victories in the corporate scandals that climaxed the bull market of the 1990s.
The court ruled unanimously that the Houston jury that found Arthur Andersen LLP guilty of obstruction of justice was given overly broad instructions by the federal judge who presided at the trial.
As a result of the faulty instructions, the justices ruled, the firm was convicted without proof that its shredding of documents was deliberately intended to undermine a looming Securities and Exchange Commission inquiry in fall 2001. U.S. District Judge Melinda Harmon should have instructed the jury that the law required the government to prove that Andersen knew it was breaking the law, the court ruled.
Thus, the government argued, the firm violated a federal law that made it a crime to "corruptly persuade" anyone to cover up evidence. At oral argument in the Supreme Court, a Justice Department lawyer likened Andersen to a felon wiping his fingerprints at a crime scene.
But in his opinion yesterday, Rehnquist suggested that the company was more akin to "a mother who suggests to her son that he invoke his right against compelled self-incrimination.
" It "is not inherently malign" to persuade someone to withhold documents from the government, but that is what the government asserted with respect to Andersen's conduct, Rehnquist wrote.

I'm thinking there is no such source. We already have a pretty good idea that spy-gate was not based on anything real, such as a highly placed Russian source.
Brennan is probably just saying that there is a source that must be protected in an attempt to restrict further investigation.

Off the top of my head, I'd say yes he can probably refuse to cooperate. If he's not a US citizen then he would have no legal obligation.
However, I'm sure the UK Govt. could compel him to cooperate under threat of legal action/extradition. But I'm not familiar at all with UK law.

Noone has to cooperate. Law enforcement and prosecutors have to make their case. He doesn't have to help them. He has to appear if he's summoned and be responsive to subpoenas. That's it.

I was expecting Nazi AIDS. Oh well there's always next week ey?
Those five countries listed is really just a cover for what's really going on, the network is global.
The FVEY otherwise known as “Five Eyes”, is an intelligence alliance of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and is considered the most powerful espionage alliance in history, and most know by now it dates back to post WW2.
It was meant to be a weapon against the spread on communism, and the original idea was great, but it's morphed into a weapon against the 4th Amendment and it's out of control.
What really hurts is we funded it and built most of it, then surrendered it to our so called allies to operate, when in fact it was only a buffer, so those powerful antennas could be redirected back at the US. I'll give you some examples of just how widespread it is.
