He read WJC his briefing every morning and became a trusted “friend of Bill.”
He apparently became pals with Rapin Bill Clinton when he delivered intel briefings to the Rapin Horndog back in the day.
How did some unknown and anti-American muzzie ever become president, TWICE!!?
I am sure that you are very intelligent but your question belies it.
These former staff members get to keep their clearances as a perk. They trade the acces for money. No one should retain the clearance after leaving office.

Dear Mr. Brennan,
I understand that you are a political opponent of the current President of the United States. I understand that you are an American citizen, and you have the right to freedom of speech. I encourage you to utilize that right. I encourage you to speak your mind. I encourage you, as I do all Americans, to be heard.
I implore you, however to cease and desist from continuing to attempt to portray yourself in the public media as some sort of impartial critic concerned only with the fate of the republic. I beg you to stop attempting to portray yourself as some sort of wise, all-knowing intelligence professional with deep knowledge of national security issues and no political inclinations whatsoever.
None of this is true.
You were never a spy. You were never a case officer. You never ran operations or recruited sources or worked the streets abroad. You have no idea whatsoever of the true nature of the business of human intelligence. You have never been in harm's way. You have never heard a shot fired in anger.
You were for a short while an intelligence analyst. In that capacity, it was your job to produce finished intelligence based on information provided to you by others. The work of intelligence analysts is important, however in truth you never truly mastered this trade either.
In your capacity as an analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency, while still a junior officer, you were designated to brief the President of the United States who was at that time Bill Clinton. As the presidential briefer, it was your job to read to the president each morning finished intelligence written by others based on intelligence collected by yet other individuals. Period.
While serving as presidential briefer you established a personal relationship with then President Bill Clinton. End of story...

Who does Trump think he is? The president?
Did sandy burglar have a security clearance while stuffing classified National Archive documents down his socks? Hmmm, clintons again.
In my opinion, the wrong question is being asked. It should not be “Why was his clearance revoked?” The question should be “Since Brennan is no longer a government employee, why does he NEED a clearance?”
The fact that a clear Iranian agent like Brennan ever got so deep into our government will act as a cautionary tale for future generations p.
How did he get there though ? Was he really a master of subterfuge who worked the way up by his own efforts ? Or are there even grateter traitors, more powerful and higher up than Brennan, who supported his rise?
What’s the big deal? Brennan simply holds the same mainstream views as other great Americans:
George W. Bush: “Islam is peace.”
Barack Obama: “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.”
John Brennan: [I’ve seen] “the goodness and beauty of Islam.”
It’s like 9/11 never happened. Oh, and here’s a video of Brennan saying the above quote.

Obama politicized the IRS, the CIA, and the FBI. All the heads of those agencies should be banned from government service. They should never have gotten those jobs in the first place. And they have no reason to have TS clearance.
He got it from obama. Brennan was/is a communist and yet he was appointed and got a clearance. He should not have gotten one... does not make sense to the sensible.. but to the obama crowd, they were lawless and put out country in jeopardy.. along with hillary who did not care who saw all her clasified information.
But they are after.... Trump!
How did this POS even get HIRED by the CIA after voting for Gus Hall , American Communist Party candidate for president in 1976? That’s what I want to know.
He voted for the Communist presidential candidate Gus Hall once. That is sufficient to disqualify anyone else. He was someone’s useful tool.
Brennan was a natural pick for the Deep State that has been running this country for a long time.
More than likely he was cleared in the 80’s when he joined CIA. More than likely, every job he held at CIA required TS, including being President’s briefer, which is considered a plum job no matter who is President. It was probably renewed every 5-7 years like it is for everyone in these sorts of positions.
Whether he should have retained it after leaving the government is a different issue, but I don’t believe there is anything sinister about HOW he was cleared.
Further, thousands of federal and military people retain their clearance when they leave and become contractors or federal employees (in the case of military). Whether they should or not is debatable but it happens all the time.
That being said, I totally agree that President Trump is perfectly within his authority to cancel the clearance.
