Exactly. And any future need to have a clearance should require a re-investigation. Of course, the little people are investigated/re-investigated on a regular basis. In some case, subjected to the occasional, random polygraph (:raises hand:).
The Deep State can discuss and disseminate classified information as they see fit, especially if they can profit from it.
I was a contractor to a 3 letter agency for over 30 years with access up to secret compartmented information, and was detailed to be a fed for a time. The day I retired I was read out of ALL my clearances and compartments. Also during that time I was polygraphed 8 times, several random most were due to the information I was working with. Few things in life are more physically and mentally/emotionally draining. I didn’t care for it. It always amazed me that my bosses at the agency were under the same rules as I was but somehow polys never seemed to happen to them, and NEVER to congress or their aids.
