What a damn FOOL...Has she never heard of “Need to Know”.....I have had a security clearance for many years but sometime I can not get into the meeting because I did not have a need to know...why would I be briefed on something I was not actively working on. Big Plus....having any clearance is a privilege not a right.

I would argue that rather than priviledge, a clearance is an obligation, a responsibility. To govern effectively, secrecy is needed and must be maintained

The Obama administration et al eschewed secrecy and allowed hacking at many levels.

Brennan and the others are not trustworthy

You have exactly hit the point of "need-to-know"

I held a TS clearance for most of my 35 years of govt. service. Only once was I briefed into a TS document, and you can be sure that the system let me know that it was just because I had a Need-to-Know so that I could delivery a requirement.
