Trump never revoked John Brennan's security clearance
Washington Examiner ^ | May 25, 2019 | Daniel Chaitin

President Trump never revoked former CIA Director John Brennan's security clearance.

The president announced in August that Brennan's security clearance was being stripped due to "erratic behavior" that disqualified him from having access to sensitive information.

But the White House never followed through with the complicated bureaucratic process of revocation, a source told the New York Times.

That’s the BIG problem.

When you’re out of the job, the security clearance needs to go with it no matter who you are.

There is no up side having an ex govt. official having ANY security clearance... PERIOD!

Simply not true. It happened. This is being pushed, along with the fake “secret deep cover” agent in russia close to putin. All standard cover your lying a@@ methodology.

The “source” here is a fraud working to steer the media- once again. Barr will KNOW if there is any such situation— top clearance, and Trump already does know. Pretty ham handed “source” leaked to the Examiner (a never trump editor btw).

I don’t believe this.

Trump said “Pull that sonofabitch’s security clearance...RIGHT NOW.”

Important: One more thing, President Trump should do is strangle the Soros money being secreted into the US via secret bank accounts,loans,ownership of newsrooms, and other ways. Soros money is "foreign money" He is a declared enemy of America and of this president especially. Check secret transfers of money into the US from the many Soros corporations.

You are informed of this happening.... how? You believe a “source” at this late stage... from the “new york slimes”— a “source”. Welllll, of course it has to be true. Got news— it isn’t true. Brennan has been unable to be booked as contracted with msnlsdnbc network— since he now has no implied or actual “little bird” to tell tales for them.

Not sure of this is true or not. It would hard to believe that this scumbag still has a security clearance but I wouldn’t rule it out.

“A source...”

Sounds legit, as always.
