Trump's Canceling of 50 Security Clearances Is Unprecedented

Saturday, January 25, 2025

The move is meant to please Trump voters, punish perceived enemies and represents "the most politically saturated security action since the Oppenheimer case in the 1950s."

More from the article...

... President Donald Trump's decision this week to revoke the security clearances of more than four dozen former intelligence officials is an unprecedented move, underscoring his willingness to break decades-old norms to please his supporters and punish his perceived opponents, legal experts say.

"This is the most politically saturated security action since the Oppenheimer case in the 1950s," said Dan Meyer, a Washington-based lawyer who specializes in security clearance cases.

Meyer was referring to Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist who oversaw the secret program to build the atomic bomb during World War II, who had his security clearance removed at the height of the McCarthy era over his prewar associations with the Communist Party.

Previous administrations have been accused of rescinding security clearances based on prejudice or political bias. Until 1995, for example, gay people often had their security clearances removed as officials claimed they could be subject to blackmail. During the Vietnam War, officials or contractors perceived to be opponents of the war had their clearances canceled, said Meyer, a partner at the law firm Tully Rinckey.

But no president has ever waded directly into the clearance process so publicly and on such a large scale as Trump did when he rescinded security clearances for 50 people in one step, Meyer and other legal experts said. Nor has a commander in chief chosen to publicly rescind security clearances for former CIA directors, deputy directors and other former top-ranking intelligence officials, many of whom worked for administrations from both parties. ...

Biden Bars Trump From Receiving Intelligence Briefings, Citing Erratic Behavior' (2021)
www.nytimes.com

... President Biden said on Friday that he would bar his predecessor, Donald J. Trump, from receiving intelligence briefings traditionally given to former presidents, saying that Mr. Trump could not be trusted because of his "erratic behavior" even before the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

The move was the first time that a former president had been cut out of the briefings, which are provided partly as a courtesy and partly for the moments when a sitting president reaches out for advice. Currently, the briefings are offered on a regular basis to Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

Mr. Biden, speaking to Norah O'Donnell of CBS News, said Mr. Trump's behavior worried him "unrelated to the insurrection" that gave rise to the second impeachment of Mr. Trump. ...

And that looks to be quite justified to me.

My Brother in Law has made a good living with his security clearance since he left, working in the private sector on Govt contracts, however, he has been required to reapply and recertify through the company he works for to maintain his clearance, with limitations related to the beneficial work he is performing.

It was obvious deception with the intent of influencing the election. They were trying to influence the public and a compliant media to kill the story. They knowingly lied. The laptop is authentic and they lied anyway. That is what happened. They had no reason to draft their memo other than to try and influence the election.

That night, Natasha Bertrand of Politico wrote a story about the letter, with the headline, "Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former intel officials say." The rest of the story, however, was less definitive, with a subheading saying the former officials "signed a letter casting doubt on the provenance of a New York Post story," and noting in the story body that the letter said the information in the Post story "has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation." In a February 2023 analysis, Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler wrote "that headline likely shaped perceptions of the letter that continue to this day." Former director of national intelligence James Clapper, who signed the letter, told Kessler, "There was message distortion. All we were doing was raising a yellow flag that this could be Russian disinformation. Politico deliberately distorted what we said. It was clear in paragraph five" of the letter. Politico stood by their report in a statement to Kessler.

but it's another example of DT learning from his biggest error from first term..

trusting any goddamn despicable worthless democrat or just maybe even worse.....trust any f /g rino....

The FBI was already in possession of the laptop.

You sure about that?

I mean, they had a copy of the hard drive, which could've been tampered with any number of ways ... but a copy (or even a clone) of the hard drive is NOT the laptop itself.

On the other hand, we all know that Rudy Colludy and Bill Barr went spy shopping and cozied up with Russian agents. All so that Marjorie Traitor Greene could post dikc pics on the overhead in Congress, LOL.

You Nazi lovin' MAGA creeps are weird af.
