What ..... on his credentials???....Whew!! His personal history warrants an ankle bracelet and a human minder to double check his whereabouts.
Presidents *(Clinton and Obama) do retain some measure of clearance for national security. How much it amounts to I don’t know, but I fell over after hearing that thousands and thousands in our government have levels of security clearances. Certainly former presidents have security rank.
Scary thought.
If Huma has access, it’s a wake up call for the condition of our national security. As in... there is no security.
All security clearances are based on ‘need to know’. Former officials (and sometimes aides they designate) retain some clearance so they can access their own records and papers, and for the purpose of answering questions from, or advising, current officials. That doesn’t mean they can just browse current federal documents at will.
Someone like Bill Clinton can just call someone like Loretta Lynch or her people and find out her ‘classified’ schedule without any security review.
