    Brennan is a bitter ex-Communist.

    LOL... you were the one who posed the question with idiot as one of the options... now you are calling it a personal attack?... maybe you should turn yourself into your handlers...

    Sessions is Mr. Magoo... you need to keep your personal attacks on target...

    I'll give you the definitive definition of Donald Trump as President.... Can't believe I haven't seen this comparison on here yet (not that it hasn't been made), but it's perfect...

    Trump = Chauncey Gardner...

    LOL...Brennan is hardly some former aid or staff member. He's a former head of the CIA using his security clearance to keep himself relevant
    as a anti Trump propagandist for CNN and whoever would stick a mic in front of his scowling face.

    You've tried to play it off and failed. Too bad.

    If things work right (and I have no confidence that they do) he should have not had access to any classified information despite holding a clearance. The clearance doesn't grant you access, it only says you are eligible to see it if your job gives you a need to know. He has no job other than TV talking head, so he has no need to know. So hopefully this is a symbolic gesture. But like I said, I don't have confidence that he wasn't being given classified info even though he had no need to know.

    True, but now he can’t go to other 5 eye countries to access undetected.
    I don’t think any former clearance holder should retain it after their term of service ends.

    It may stop the quality/quantity of the info that Brennan can use for his criticisms if it's no longer ok to discuss classified info with him. Not sure how many want to risk their necks to give him something to leak.

    Trump would never be allowed around tiny objects that are swallowing hazards, so both games are probably out...

    Who is that? If I have look up your example it's not worth it. The question still stands?

    Is Trump some kind of political genius playing the American people or is he mr. Magoo who is a total idiot?

    Not bad for an idiot. And what's more the "smart people" that comprise the left are getting their butts handed to them on a daily basis.

    This is not news, it's basic WH housekeeping...members with clearence have no way to self revoke their clearence the only way is for them to have it revoked, most don't want or have any need for it. The cultists are so manipulated you can see right before our eyes how they are trying to make this into some sort of significant action....

    Incredibly ironic considering the extended temper tantrum the left has been engaged in ever since Trump was inaugurated.
    Is this satire? If so it's brilliant. If not, it's sad and shows a lack of self awareness that is absolutely mind boggling.

    Sanders' statement Wednesday cited the CIA's infiltration of Senate computers during Brennan's time at the helm of the agency as a reason for the decision, adding that Brennan has "recently leveraged his status" as a former official to "make a series of unfounded allegations" about the administration, which she called "increasingly frenzied commentary."

    Does that moron think Brennan is suddenly mute because of this partisan nonsense?

    Sometimes you just have to sit and watch what they're doing to find the nest.

    Yes this is news that's why its breaking with all news sources. Trump threatened to take Brennans Security clearance and now he makes good on that promise. Naturally the Lame Stream wouldn't forget one of Trumps promises now, would they?

    It appears Brennan and Clapper still want theirs or they wouldn't have got out there before the cameras mocking Trump for thinking about it.

    One down and a few more to go.

    Only a Cultist would try and deny breaking news.


    NBC News reporter Ken Dilanian suggested Monday that President Donald Trump would hurt the livelihoods of Obama administration alumni by taking away the “valuable commodity” of their security clearances.

    Dilanian (pictured, bottom center), who covers the intelligence community and national security issues, accused Trump of “seeking to levy a financial penalty” on former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper — both of whom are paid contributors at cable news networks.

    Brennan now works for Dilanian’s employer NBC News as an MSNBC analyst. Clapper has since joined CNN in a similar capacity.

    He further insinuated that federal employees should consider resisting the order if the president gives it, lambasting Trump for what he called an “extraordinary threat of political retribution.”....snip~

    Only a cultist, Leftist wouldn't be caught up with reality that has taken place.

    Again, if you are presenting me with that either/or, you know which way I'm going to go, although I actually don't think he's either of those..

    If Copying and pasting 2 words into google is going to cause perspiration, we certainly don't want that....

    The movie is Being There.... the only way that reference will make sense is to watch the movie, but this Ebert review sums it up pretty well... read it... don't read it... whatever... somebody will get that reference and will understand.
