100% SPOT ON! Only I wouldn't call THING....-POWER-DRUNK..... I would call the INSANE L-U-N-A-T-I-C ….POWER-MAD!



How has Trump "abused the power of his office"?

What has Trump done that he doesn't have the Constitutional authority as President to do?

Brennan is a mass-murderer who should be locked up for war crimes.

Fascist Trump would be more fitting. He can easily be compared with Benito Mussolini.

It's puts our nation at risk and I don't understand how his fan club can keep ignoring that.
How does revoking the security clearances of EX-administration staffers put our nation at risk?????????

Literally the dumbest talking point from the Democrats that I've heard, besides the talking point that revoking Brennan's security clearance violates his "free speech" BTW he's still talking on twitter and MSNBC. What happened to him being silenced?

I applaud John Brennan! Republicans adore Donald Trump and Evangelical Christians have forgiven Donald Trump of all of his sins, now Donald Trump feels he can do anything he wants too.

Says the guy who lied under oath about abusing power, and allowed the Russian government to meddle in our elections then acted like it was Trump's fault.

Brennan is irrelevant. He has lost his security clearance and America is now a bit safer.
He'll be quoted over and over by The Left, but his opinion no longer matters.


MAGA

Like I said, nincompoops doubling down on their nincompoopery.
No, more likely they're in fear of it happening to them now that a precedent has been set and a very valid argument made that once you leave your position your clearance should be removed.

Why should they all retain it? I'm sure if a person who had/has specific knowledge really needed to be brought in for a conversation they could get transactional clearance.

Even holding a clearance, Brennan only has access to information that another person gives him permission to access. He cannot go willy-nilly getting things for no reason. In fact, he can't even independently get ANYTHING. You are the one that has no idea what can and cannot be done with a clearance so it's probably best that you just stay out of this part of the conversation. Then you decide to go off on a personal attack about TEPLimey's integrity because you've been owned on this subject.
Don't forget that with the clearance he can be "leaked to" about classified subjects without any legal repercussions just like Comey did with his buddy the Professor.
Given all the leaking to people who have no reason to know other than the weaponization of said "leaked" information removing said clearances could shut down one leaky pipeline.
