Surprising Support for Trump Yanking Brennan's Security Clearance
American Thinker ^ | August 17, 2018 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 08/17/2018 3:09:03 PM PDT by onyx

This may be a sign that the tide is turning and the cabal that conspired to fix the 2016 presidential election and then, when that failed, remove Trump from office is going to be exposed and ultimately held to account. As the Democrats and their media enablers bloviate about John Brennan's imaginary First Amendment right to a perpetual security clearance, a statement of support for the president came from an unexpected source yesterday. Lou Dobbs tweeted: @realDonaldTrump #AmericaFirst #Dobbs pic.twitter.com/YP7pYZPACa — Lou Dobbs (@LouDobbs) August 16, 2018

I still can’t figure out why the unemployed, cranky old bastard would need a clearance. He doesn’t work for the government anymore. Geez.

When you leave the government, everyone should have it revoked.

Wishing that someone would tell me what Brennan can’t talk about now that he could “legally” talk about before.

That’s because it’s the right and proper thing to do. And it most certainly wasn’t too soon.

Not surprising at all.

This will limit his employment opportunities and lessen his ability to hurt our country.

I could be wrong, but I believe it means sharing any information that requires such a clearance, with Comrade Brennan, oops Mr. Brennan would be a crime.

Now, just get some traceable info to a suspected leaker and then when Brennan mentions it, you’ve got a couple of criminals caught red-handed.

Exactly. And any future need to have a clearance should require a re-investigation. Of course, the little people are investigated/re-investigated on a regular basis. In some case, subjected to the occasional, random polygraph (:raises hand:).

The Deep State can discuss and disseminate classified information as they see fit, especially if they can profit from it.

It is an employment perk.

I don’t think anyone in government should work for govnt contractors after leaving the public sectors.

This is why Trump’s Twitter use is so important

It should have been yanked the day he was fired.

Who else keeps their employers access after they have left?

Corporations know this and practice it. How come the CIA does not know this?

That is a clear security hole.

How is support from Lou Dobbs on a decision by the President surprising? He’s been a consistent supporter of Trump for some time now.

I think Dobbs is just posting TRUMP is getting support from Senate Intel Chairman Richard Burr

There is no bigger Trump supporter in the media than Lou Dobbs.

Brennan can’t talk about anything that’s classified before or now.

He just can’t get any new classified information now that his access has been cut off. At least not directly, he’ll have to get it through a leaker.
