Rand Paul Goes After Brennan: ‘Revoke John Brennan’s Security Clearance!’
dailycaller.com ^ | 7/23/18 | Virginia Kruta

Posted on 07/23/2018 11:00:45 AM PDT by ColdOne

Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul went after former CIA chief John Brennan, firing off a couple of tweets on Monday morning.

Paul suggested that Brennan was making money on his continued access to sensitive information, and said that he would call for Brennan’s security clearance to be revoked.

“Is John Brennan monetizing his security clearance? Is John Brennan making millions of dollars divulging secrets to the mainstream media with his attacks on [Donald Trump]?” Paul asked on Twitter.

“Today I will meet with the President and I will ask him to revoke John Brennan’s security clearance!”

Most everything POTUS Trump has done is commendable except the transition from the Obama government into the Trump government. Why there are so many holdovers and those with security clearances is absolutely insane.

Aha...no wonder I lost my Top Secret Clearance the moment I retired. I was obviously no where high enough on the ladder.

Probably because the replacements are being slow walked by congress due to resistance by democrats. It is difficult to run any department without a boss.

“Why does this hack and others still have security clearances?”

“Others” = Hillary and Hussein, too, I think. Insane.

Interestingly, security clearances and their procedures are under the control of the President and can be changed by executive order.

More than a million people had ‘Top Secret’ clearance as of a few years ago.

With that said, I can’t believe Hillary Clinton did not know better than to send documents through a private server (unsecured) which were classified. Even a low level employee like myself knew better.

Of course she knew. She’s free today because of a lack of courage.

A real investigation would bring espionage charges. That’s why there won’t be a real investigation.

Hillary knew exactly what she was doing. She didn’t go to the lengths she did to be “off the grid” so to speak just out of ignorance or accident. She was running a pay for play scheme and the emails had to be kept out of the official channels of communication. 0bama let it happen.

If we weren’t already a banana republic with no rule of law, we were when that happened.

Brennan should be lined up against a wall and given a blindfold and a cigarette.

Way too kind.

An old fashion beheading, done with a dull axe wielded by a black hooded executioner, seems proper to me.

His severed head, stuck on a rusty pike pole, goes on tour to be made visible on the grounds of every state's capitol as what awaits those who likewise partake in seditious acts.

I’ll go as far as to stipulate that Rand >> Little Marco who is, oddly enough, >> than about at least 40 GOPee Senators.

It makes me sick to think about it.

I think Rand Paul is now my favorite senator now. He seems to be understanding the actual US of A more than the others. He doesn’t seem blackmailed or paid for. He might not even be full of sex secrets.
