is not an argument for targeting political enemies


Why is trump the one “targeting” here?

Brennan is a political correspondent for a leftist news network in the age of leakers, is openly adversarial to the administration, called for a military coup, and may be the subject of an investigation into campaign spying — ie, “targeting political enemies”.

Your TDS is showing

Why should former federal workers/employees/agents/appointees/politicians have security clearances anyway after they’re gone? It should be revoked the day you leave or retire.

The fact that lots of people not currently working for intelligence agencies still have active security clearances for a set amount of time from when the clearance was granted, as opposed to when the job requiring it ends, may be another decent argument why this practice should end.

But they're not imposing a policy that would fix this, and not even talking about doing that. They're going after political enemies, and not even close to everyone guilty of whatever their actual excuse will be. And to loud cheers here, I'll add.

This doesn't rise to the level of "going after." This is much more passive. They're simply cutting off access. The active part of what's happening is on the side of the people crying about their clearance being pulled.

Having a clearance is a requirement for pretty much job anywhere closely related to their past experience. There's an entire industry of people in the DC area who get jobs largely because they still have an active clearance when they separate or retire from service, and because they are very expensive for employers to get done.

My best friend is retired secret service, his clearance was immediately revoked no entry to SS offices anywhere and no communication. They all need to be revoked, period

i don't care about that or them, and i'm certainly not saying you should either. i'm just saying that this selective application of this thing that will harm them is in fact targeting

Don’t choose to become a political operative trying to undermine the current administration if you don’t want your shite revoked. Pretty simple.

Every single one of these ex-intel peeps is obsessed with taking down Trump. They shouldn’t have access to shite.

I'm not really sure why I'm supposed to care about it being targeting either. They're publicly trying to take down a sitting president. It would be idiotic to continue to allow them official access while they do it.

Not much of a difference between Dems and GOPe. They seem to play along just fine.
