Actually, what you’re saying is incorrect. Your clearance isn’t “revoked” simply because you leave a job. It will be inactivated, but NOT revoked.
Fox Fake News runs the story as Trump wants to revoke security clearances for his critics, making it look like he’s doing it for purely vindictive reasons.
We need an entirely new media, and we need it a year ago.
It gets revoked if you get a DUI, file a Bankruptcy, get fired or quit a job.
As far as I can tell they were all fired.
I stand corrected. Access is revoked. You do retain clearance. You need both to get classified info. At least that’s the case for us deplorables.
