what would beating up on your wife have anything to do with your job, sound like a personel problem, or maybe the wives just want to get him fired. I have met some evil women that would. The guy got to have a job to eat, cant get welfare, but wives keep getting him fired

He most certainly does not need a job that entitles him to top security clearance. Should a wife beater really be working in the White House being the president's right hand man?


Only with Trump. Any other administration would have booted him out in a hot minute.

The restraining order was an obstacle to getting full security clearance.

From this last year we have become more aware that if you are susceptible to potential bribery you are a security risk.

That's the guts of the issue and then there is this whole thing that Trump says 'he's a great guy'...but he's really a guy who beats up women. Not a good look for anybody -- shows definite poor judge of character.

Someone please check on Hope Hicks. Foundation and concealers can only hide so much. She needs to get out of the WH, get out of that relationship as soon as possible.

You can't own a gun if you have a restraining order in most states but evidently you can work in the White House.

Gowdy should ask the Trump administration why they think wife beating is okay.

Didn't bother to read the thread before you posted, did you?

Here, I've simplified it as much as possible.

1) Porter was hired to do a job that requires a security clearance.

2) FBI says he shouldn't get a security clearance.

And THAT's the issue.
