Mark Warner to reveal amendment to ‘block’ Trump from ‘arbitrarily revoking security clearances’

Virginia Democratic Sen. Mark Warner on Friday said he plans to present an amendment preventing President Trump from “arbitrarily revoking security clearances.”

Warner’s announcement came after Trump earlier this week revoked the security clearance of former CIA Director John Brennan and hinted Friday that he would soon do the same for Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr.

“I will be introducing an amendment next week to block the President from punishing and intimidating his critics by arbitrarily revoking security clearances,” Warner tweeted. “Stay tuned.”

He was elected by illegal aliens and green card no citizens in Northern Virginia and by Virginia party elites who side with the Democrat when a conservative is on the ballot.

Republican elites are nw stabbing Corey Stewart in the back to keep weasel Kaine in office.

If it is needed. Get one. Not that hard. I had need to know clearances, it was harder to get my Amazon badge.

My last day on my job. I was debriefed, clearances canceled and papers signed before I left the building. If the military needed me to have that clearance again the investigation phase was done, I should have had access granted almost immediately. My service record shows I was clared before.

It is a SERIOUS Security breach to hand out top secret clearances for perks. Politicians are insane folks. A top Secret clearance is serious stuff. Just reading secret stuff that is not your business can get you hard time.

Its not arbitrary and its not congress’ purview to argue ex-employees should keep security clearances.

I lost all of mine my last day at work. Its done for multiple reasons. These guys if they go private sector, can always get them reinstated again if necessary.

They all should have their clearances gone on their last day. The little people do, they should too.

You might be President if you had defeated Hillary in the 2016 Democratic primaries. On the other hand you might be a dead victim of Arkancide.

Maybe he does not have to cancel them.

He can just shadow ban them. They came make information requests. But no one sees them.

There is currently 27 open leak investigations in the doj. It is very likely Brennan is the cause of one of those leaks.

It’s also very likely he will be charged soon. Hence the revocation of his clearance.

This is all MTF. Which is why people stopped watching the news, and despise opportunistic politicians.

MTF = Monkeys Throwing Feces

You don’t learn anything, it is totally unnecessary, unconstitutional, and just a grandstanding reaction to the zoo patrons watching his cage - so in essence it is a monkey throwing feces.

Better the contractors pay their own Bill’s than we install security sieves for political perks.
