The two-faced double-talk BS they come up with! FBI checks did not stop the following anti-Americans who have deep "problematic histories and ties to other nations"...
Given what the FBI has done to Trump and his associates and supporters, this would be very understandable.
Why would the FBI need to issue clearances when they’re no longer going to exist once Trump fires all their corrupt asses?
I find this interesting.
There’s this Iranian woman suspected of spying for the Iranian’s and leaked out information vital to Israel. I really don’t think she was properly vetted.
With this case in mind, I’d say Trump granting a clearance would be best. Do a simple background check similar to what one gets when buying a gun, and that’s it.
When Billy Jeff Clinton was elected, dozens of his nominated staff could not pass background checks, and especially could not pass drug screening. Eventually he got around this process by putting them in positions that did not require any investigation or vetting.
The FBI tried to kill ya’ Don...Just sayin’
I think this is an excellent idea.
“ and immediately grant security clearances to a large number of his appointees after being sworn in, according to three people briefed on the matter”
*************************************************************
I agree completely. I’ve always suspected that national DEEP STATE intelligence/law enforcement agencies TAKE THEIR SWEET TIME completing background investigations on Trump candidate appointees. They do that to delay as long as possible Trump’s beginning to make NEEDED changes in the various agencies and departments. If anything derogatory is later brought to light by the background investigations appointees can always have their clearances withdrawn and be replaced by new appointees.

Trump is bypassing the enemy from within
The deep state and Democrats slow walked Trump appointees during his first term blocking Trump’s ability to form a government. Trump should side step these delaying tactics and get straight to punishing his enemies. Time is short, the enemies list is long.
Or the folks at the alphabet agency from just holding up his nominations so the Biden admin can work on shredding and deleting files.
I think its a great idea.
I think this is reasonable here. Especially since I would be dissolving or redefining the FBI as one of the earliest acts.
After what the FBI did to sabotage General Flynn and the rest of the Trump transition Trump would have to be crazy to go through them again.
Trump needs to take a lesson from Ronald Reagan. Reagan had to defeat the Rockefeller Republicans before he could deal with Jimmy Carter and Reagan had to deal with both Democrats and Republicans who hated his guts and wanted to see him fail
Reagan had what maybe the best thought out and organized transition in modern history.
Within minutes of being sworn in, Reagan loyalists descended on the executive branch with Reagan loyalists with military precision and they were in firm control of all the agencies in a matter of hours
It was literally as close to a legal coup as can happen in the US
Trump needs to have a very well organized and disciplined transition team of loyal and reliable operatives completely remove the Biden holdovers from any and all key positions and assume control within minutes of Trump being sworn in
They need to execute a plan to completely remove any holdovers from positions of power and remove them from the premises. Once in control, they need to neuter the people left before they can do any damage
Russia, Russia, Russia.
So, his ‘advisers’ recommend that Trump do exactly like every Democrat pResident has done since Clinton.
I agree. Potential Trump employees should be vetted by a trustable institution. It merely demonstrates the fact that the FBI doesn’t trust itself. I certainly do not. (I believe that most FBI folks are trustable, but their leadership of Biden morons and career bureaucrats is not.)
It is a trap...
The NEW Trump FBI could handle this.
If a truck driver or garbage man has to pass an FBI background check these guys should. Do it by the book, or he will just be handing them ammo to use against himself. Let the FBI hang themselves if they refuse to clear someone.
