Several staffers were informally told by transition officials that some past marijuana use would be overlooked, only to be told later that they were being asked to resign.

This is stupid. At least the Clintons didn’t pretend pot was an issue they were too virtuous to be associated with. Pot? Hell, some of the major BJC staffers were known coke-heads.

I suspect the ones who were fired were those who admitted smoking marijuana just days before they started working on the transition team.

You are right. During the Clinton administration, the detail whose job it was to do the security clearances could never finish his job.
Hillary thought she was so smart when she got Huma out of completing her security clearance.
So, what that says is that Huma never got a security clearance for all that top secret information she was handling.
Plus, they were somehow able to bypass the skiffs. No one is supposed to be able bypass the skiffs.

My guess is that there is more to the story. Possibilities: the fired staffers lied about their level of use. Or they lied about how recent their use may have been. Or they were using a lot of stuff other than pot as well. Or they were dealing. I suppose the list could be extended. The WH is trying to minimize the embarrassment and the damage to their future employability, but my guess is that more is involved.

Bidan is on his way out; Commie-La has used; likely, pot intake was a *prerequisite* of WH employ.
Clean way of removal of ALL the cabal inhabitants and WH cretins, to make it completely empty.

No sympathy for them here-that is what happens in the “real” world of private employment that the rest of us work in-hope they like their first taste of it...

If all of Kamala Willie Licker’s habits are a prerequisite for WH employment, that ought to be a rockin’ place.

Quid pro Ho smoked the Mary Jo don't you know. She even said so. listening to Tupac and Snoop Dawg like she was born in the ghetto. But then she got mean on the green when despite her Jamaica gene she joined the police team and cracked down on the weed scene.
All over town and all over Willie Brown. A tribute to skanks, moving up in the ranks, laughing out loud while prosecuting the dank. She never looked back, or gave a second thought, as she incarcerated people for smoking pot.

My guess is that there is more to the story... Me too. There are definitely people with security clearances who have admitted to smoking marijuana. There's something fishy about this story.
To: Jess Kitting
People calling in political favors and pressure for fewer white men. Needed to get rid of a few..... so what excuse ? Cannibis Use of Course~!
Thats just how a liberal fascist thinks/
Perfectly OK you see.
