Could this ‘slow-walking’ of these security clearances by the FBI be the insurance policy they were talking about??

Rice still has clearance to classified material that pertains to her time in the Obama White House as National Security adviser, nothing else.

From the link you posted. I don’t know if this is supposed to make us feel pacified about her still having the clearance or not...I would feel easier if we were told outright that they followed protocol but it seldom or never occurs that they need to be kept up to date on ANYTHING related to security! That’s what I want to hear.

“”Hardly, a White House official explained to me. I’m told McMaster wrote similar letters to all the living national security advisers from past administrations—Democratic and Republican—as a matter of longstanding practice. Revoking Rice’s clearance would have been unusual. And that practice applies not just to national security advisers but to other departments and agencies, such as secretary of State. The reason, the official said, is for the purposes of continuity. Without a continued security clearance, it would be illegal for government officials to discuss relevant sensitive information with a former official. The process for reauthorizing a past official’s security clearance is lengthy.

This may or may not be a bad practice, but one thing the official stressed to me was that this security clearance doesn’t give former officials like Rice continued asking privileges for sensitive information.””
