I’m one of the stupid people who still think Q exists (a small team, not PDJT), so perhaps my analysis is bunk.

I hope and pray PDJT has allowed their clearance until now because he wanted to capture some treasonous/illegal activity, and has it now, and will revoke - and their arrogance is not allowing them to see this.

TAKE ACTION! CONTACT THE WHITE HOUSE NOW!

* Demand retired intelligence personnel are not given security clearances.

* Demand that FISA Warrants be declassified and made public with no redactions.

I am in serious shock that anyone NOT currently filling a position in the government still has access to their security clearance and their classified networks.

I work in the DoD and once you have left the agency, all access is supposed to be cut off. How do these individuals still have their access?????

leave your employment in the real world and you are locked out of everything almost immediately.

nobody seems to be asking the perps why they think they should be allowed to continue to have security access.

Holding a clearance and having access are two separate things.

For a former high-level official, having the clearance after leaving may be necessary in order for the government to question them regarding some matter relating to their time in the office.

However, it is high time these twits get publicly stripped of their clearances.

@JRubinBlogger a sickening example of content discrimination, violation of First Amendment.

The First Amendment gives you the right to relate information, not unfettered access to it.

Having a clearance and having access to classified information are two different things. The clearance means nothing if you don’t have the opportunity to use it.

There are two necessary conditions for a person to be able to see classified material; the correct clearance level AND the "need to know". Nobody enforces the latter apparently.

There are probably arguments to be made for not automatically revoking security clearances when someone leaves a gov't position.

HOWEVER, what rationale can be advanced for allowing these privileges to those who were FIRED from their positions for violating various agency policies, insubordination or 'lack of candor'?

My recollection is that security clearances, at least the TS/SCI versions, require a periodic RENEWAL.

An important element of that RENEWAL is a POLYGRAPH. I think Trump should order this up for the full list, Brennan et al, and see what they say. Refusal automically terminates their clearances.

Question:

How many persons from the Reagan administration still have security clearances?

From the Nixon administration?

From the JFK administration?

From the Ford administration?

From the George Bush 41 administration?

From the Jimmah Carter Administration?

From the Bill Clinton administration?

From the George Bush 43 administration?

I see absolutely NO reason for anyone who no longer has the job to have such ‘clearances’.

If they are being handed out like business cards at a convention, then what value are they?

What kind of vetting does a person get before they are granted a security clearance?

NONE of this behavior is one bit funny.

Still wondering why it’s necessary to have or maintain a security clearance in order to guarantee an agency’s “continuity” or to provide background on PAST operations. And in the rare cases where new secrets must be revealed in order to tap old heads, couldn’t temporary clearances be granted?

What it’s really all about is ACCESS, need-to-know or not; and the degree of authority a valid clearance lends (viz. to a pundit, a rival, etc.). Both of these serve the individual far more often than they aid the current government.

Clearances, all of them, should be revoked with the end of a term of service.
