Trump must have talked with Rand Paul and is considering removing security clearances from some Obama intel officials.

Sarah Sanders announced it in the WH briefing. Sounds like a great idea to me.

Officials have been politicizing and monetizing secure information. It hurts the country as a whole when they are politicizing it for personal gain. They no longer need access once out of office.

Yeah, because this is just living the American Dream.

Scary that people are so gullible as to think this is a good thing.

It just sounds like more desperation from a guilty man to me.

Most people today would probably be fine with Trump being an absolute dictator if it meant spiting the libs and getting back at everyone they hate (LGBT, minorities, non-Christians, etc).

This is how dictators squash all dissent. Attack the press and all political enemies. Eliminate all criticism using every means.

If you don't have the job anymore you don't need the security clearance. Happens everyday in the civilian world when one quits or retires. Explain why one would still need one.

Weaponizing security clearances based on political views? What a f’ing joke. This Administration is beyond pathetic.

If you no longer work for the government, you have no right or need to see secret information. The revoking of clearance should be automatic. Let these people pay to obtain their own clearances on a limited basis.

Sandy Berger was able steal records from the National Archives and destroy and/or alter others related to Bill Clinton.

Barack Hussein weaponized the IRS to enable his re-election by squelching conservative voices and groups.
