    What does Mcraven know about the CIA operations that Trump does not know more? trump can never be wrong. Trump should take away all the military clearances. Some of them may not be Trump fans.Cannot take that chance. No security clearances for you.

    WOW. I am so thankful that my country still contains people of honor like this. From your link:
    ~~~
    Washington (CNN) - Retired Adm. William McRaven, the man who oversaw the 2011 Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden, issued a stunning rebuke of President Donald Trump's decision to revoke the security clearance of former CIA Director John Brennan on Thursday, defending the former spy chief as "one of the finest public servants I have ever known."

    In an op-ed published by the Washington Post, McRaven, a former Navy SEAL who led US Joint Special Operations Command from 2011 to 2014, not only called Brennan "a man of unparalleled integrity," but volunteered to have his own security clearance revoked in an act of solidarity.

    "Few Americans have done more to protect this country than John. He is a man of unparalleled integrity, whose honesty and character have never been in question, except by those who don't know him," McRaven wrote.

    "Therefore, I would consider it an honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well, so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your presidency," he added.
    ~~~

    The only thing I wish he would have said differently in that statement....

    "....so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your DISGRACEFUL SHAM OF A presidency".

    He sure as hell wasn't talking about you in that first line, was he?

    The last third of the last line sounds more like you, yet you seem to imply you know things that you don't.
