There is no indication that Kushner goes through any process for his clearance. And if you believe in the executive authority of the President this is all quite clear.

I would hope that the various intelligence agencies continue to monitor Kushner and everyone else in the White House. We should still be checking for spies even close to the President. Hopefully they catch no one...but one never knows.

The majority of the American people did not choose this grifter and the one good thing that will come out of this debacle is the decimation of the electoral college...state by state.

I understand your confusion, that's how it works in Russia. Unfortunately for your snarky behind, that's not how it works here, we have three co-equal branches of government. And one of em is fixing to give him a beat down.

Got to admit this is weird...here am I defending Trump against a right winger...hell has frozen over.

SO, lets get this straight, you tell me there is an EO that lets him give anyone he wants a clearance, and then when I call you on it, you say he's not bound by the EO.....


You cannot make this stuff up folks...

If there isn't any proof of him being a bad actor then I don't have an issue with this.

Wet dreams again, I see....cool, you'll be glad that as little as 10 states can decide who is president....


Talk about your vote not counting...but you're cool with that, sad....

WOW, the sarcasm in that post went completely over your head...not surprising, when you're in your mom's basement, eating cereal for dinner, still in your PJ's.....watching barney...

You really appear not to understand.

An EO is simply the codified directive of the President. Nothing more or less. If the President no longer agrees it does not apply.

Strange how simple concepts are so hard to handle.

And the driver for Feinstein would indict the intelligence community whose job it was to watch that those near the movers and shakers are trustworthy. You hear of any spooks getting fired?.

Simple concept? You bring up the EO, I call you on it, then say, well, it really does not matter....then why did you bring it up?



Yes, it appears you could not even understand your simple concept....to the point you had to back track within a few posts about the EO.....


So, feinstien did not have a spy driving for her? Even after she was told there might be something going on?

Glad you can play that down, as not being near the "movers and shakers"....of course she never did business in her car....and I'm sure the spy never overheard anything, just ask him....
