These people are almost impossibly annoying.

It makes me happy, though, that every day more and more Americans, even Democrats, get annoyed with them, too.

It’s like Trump is a Great Dane striding down the street being trailed by little yappy purse dogs. Who wants to identify with little yappy purse dogs?

These LIB idiots are beyond annoying. They are lunatics without any moral, legal or ethics bearing. What pinheads! Would that they self-exile.

He’s VA’s senior Senator.

Though I never voted for this cretin, sorry America.

Fine. Trump did not “arbitrarily” revoke anything. He revoked the security clearance Brennan was granted for cause; Brennan had clearly and repeatedly violated the stipulations of the CIA rules by which he had top secret clearance. Trump did nothing wrong, and is well within the authority of the office of the president to do so.

Top Secret security clearance is not a right. It is a privilege, and more it is a responsibility, and a gravely important one at that. It is not covered by the 1st Amendment, and does not constitute speech. To claim so is to either knowingly lie, or demonstrate only a feeble understanding of what rights are and the Constitution in general.

Brennan has lied to congress, and committed acts that would definitely disqualify anyone else of retaining that crucially important clearance. He has profited monitarily by his access to top secret information via his job as political pundit at CNN, and may have thus seriously violated the Espionage Act and other statutes that govern state secrets and national security. He is guilty of violating the very spirit of the CIA rules, and has no business continuing this kind of treasonous activity.

Warner needs to either consult basic texts to get his understanding of Constitutional Rights up to the level of a High School student of past decades, or he should resign for cause. That cause would be willful deception of the public trust.

I'd be truly interested in knowing why these treasonous slime balls feel that a burn-before-reading security clearance should be a lifetime irrevocable pension.

Might as well go all the way, and present a resolution declaring Trump as not the president of the U.S. It’s what Warner really wants.

Go to hell Warner. You and your leaky democrat party are in no position dictate anything. None of you should ever have any clearance to anything, ever.

So go sit down and suck eggs, creep.

Yeah, and it’s fitting the dems use Mark Warner to bring this out, who’s already a known knucklehead dumb-ass. It’s not like it could ever hurt his reputation any more then it already is.

Since the standard for granting a security is that it be “clearly in the national interest, I don’t see a problem.

Probably an amendment to an existing bill already introduced to the Senate.

Introduce a bill that lifts all security clearances when a person leaves government service.
If at some later date the clearance could be reinstated if needed.
