Full title.................. Trump is trying to strip Obama's intelligence chiefs of their security clearance in revenge for making 'baseless accusations' including TREASON against him...........Sarah Sanders announced at her press briefing President Trump is exploring ways to remove clearances of those former intelligence officials critical of him Sanders had no details on how they would be removed but she said the administration is 'exploring' options She charged the former intelligence officials with using their clearances for political purposes and financial gain Those officials include former CIA chief John Brennan, former FBI director James Comey, former deputy Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Andrew McCabe, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former Director of the National Security Agency Michael Hayden, and former National Security Advisor Susan Rice Clapper told CNN the move was 'a petty thing to do' Comey and McCabe no longer even have clearances

They’re all retired anyway, yes?
Then no need for them to have any kind of clearance at all.
Piss Off UK DailY Mail!!!
Turn it in the same time as the rest of your Government stuff
But how can you be a traitor if you were never a supporter?
How do these people keep clearances when they are out of government? Whose brilliant idea is that?
Those security clearances along with Hil LIAR Y’s, should have been removed the day they were escorted out of the building.
The heat is ON.
Agree they are a risk factor.$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I thought that when someone is no longer in a job requiring clearance, they immediately get their clearances revoked.
Trump was a supporter, financially at least, of the Deep State until not long before he ran for office.
IMO this is the moment he decided he was done with them.

They should turn in their security clearances along with their keys and any other government issue as they walk out the door. No need for them to have it.
I don’t think killary still has hers. 5 years after they leave office is how long they keep them and I think it has been 5 years now. But yes she should have been stripped of them and not only escorted out of the building but taken to prison.
They, and the rest of the liberal media, are just PO’d that their informants (leakers) will be shut down now.
No kidding. Seems like their clearances would be tied to their positions and would be revoked once they were no longer in that position.
By violating your oath of office! Why do they administer and oath to begin with?
McCabe was fired.
How does he still have security clearance?
Take their Citizenship and Deport them out!!
I certainly did. A last debriefing, a signature, a reminder that releasing anything covered under it before a stipulated period of years and I'd go go prison, a plaque for the wall, a handshake, and an escort to the entry. People such as Brennan occasionally get an extension to cover ongoing operations, but nobody gets one as a souvenir.
