He will be debriefed upon leaving the CIA...it is not an easy matter to discuss, even under House inquiry, classified information. He is essentially held mute. It wouldn’t surprise me that his clearance will be suspended also.

The only way I see around it is that he receives approval from the Executive Branch to discuss anything classified.

We all know the chances of that happening.

Huh?

Where do you come up with this crappola?

Of course his Security Clearance will be revoked, if it has not already. So what?

EVERYONE who leaves Gov't Service including all Military Personnel automatically have their Security Clearances revoked because why would they need them, as they would no longer have access to classified info.

As a covert Intel Agent while serving in Vietnam, I still will not divulge to anyone some of the secrets I learned and knew then (some 46 years ago) NOT because there is anything preventing me from doing so (legally) simply because I choose not too just in case what I said might somehow impact those who continue to serve in that Organization.

There is NO WAY, Dear Leader (or anyone) can keep P from being subpoenaed or from testifying--not that I don't expect this corrupt Regime to try, maybe by invoking "Executive Privilege", which just won't fly--especially if it is done in Secret Sessions.....and you can take that to the bank.

You do not automatically get your clearance revoked, you get your “access” revoked. Clearances have a lifespan depending on the type. A secret last 10 years. Access is another matter entirely, that is revoked ASAP and has to be reinstated. You can in some circumstances have a clearance revoked, adultery has never been one reason I know of, unless it was part of some other conviction by a court.

Any chance P being the left’s Ollie North...?

I can see the GOP being stupid enough to fall into that trap...

Not quite true. I know someone who worked for the NSA and still retains his clearance. There are retirees, for example, that retain their clearances. As for the CIA, they do anything they want because they don't operate the same; they handle their own clearances apart from the normal DoD security operation. When you are debriefed, you acknowledge that you still are not to relate anything classified that you know. It's the 5/500000 penalty.
