Trump revoking security clearance for ex-CIA director John Brennan

[archives]

President Donald Trump is revoking the security clearance of former CIA director John Brennan, who served in the Obama administration.

White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced the decision at a White House briefing Wednesday, following through on the president’s recent threat.

Sanders is citing Brennan’s ‘‘erratic conduct and behavior’’ and accusing him of ‘‘lying’’ and ‘‘wild outbursts.’’
She also claims he’s ‘‘leveraged his status’’ to make unfounded allegations.

Sanders says other former intelligence officials’ security clearances are also ‘‘currently under review.’’

The best part of that news isn't Brennan losing his clearance, he probably doesn't even care, but Trump and Sanders actually accusing him of ‘‘lying," accusing him of "lying," the individual setting Olympian records for lying accuses another person of "lying."

Trump and Sanders are both criticizing Brennan for a fault they both excel at, I think the appropriate idiom is the "pot calling the kettle black," no one takes either serious

And the Soviet style purge continues.

This doesn't hurt Brennan one bit. It hurts the United States because he is no longer the valuable resource he was

Real Childish ... if I was Brennan, I'd say, fine, and loose my Phone number also and don't forget my Pension Deposit.

good riddance Brennan, you're free to do your book tour now, better hurry, Amarosa and Comey and Stormy are booking the large venues up quick

[Bourbon]

This is silly posturing.. They automatically lose their security clearance when they are no longer imployed.

They're still bound to National Secrecy ... Period ... for LIFE

No he's NOT FREE to do his Book Tour without Intelligence reviewing it first ...

You and Don Tweety don't know the Rules ... so you just act out like children

whataboutism.
Brennan has monetized his clearance while making completely unsupported accusations that
"Putin must have something on Trump'

It just means they can't come to him for advice ... something those Morons in The trump Administration wouldn't do anyway.

Stupid, but this is where we are now in this country.

What a childish person Trump is?!!

This will not stop Brennan from criticizing Trump either!

It really is a petty and vindictive move. Trump had to divert the attention away from Omarosa. He seems to want to silence all his detractors. People screaming about Infowars should be outraged by this.

Oh no, not even close, the hypocrisy is too apparent, and besides, what does Brennan care, it certainly isn't going to stop him from criticizing Trump nor discredit his criticism, whole move is just an attempted deflection away from the Donald current predicaments

Explain exactly how that is

[Stretch]

Actually Trump's a multi-tasker. He can humiliate Imaliar and the Troll at the same time.
