Rand Paul Goes After Brennan: ‘Revoke John Brennan’s Security Clearance!’
dailycaller.com ^ | 7/23/18 | Virginia Kruta

Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul went after former CIA chief John Brennan, firing off a couple of tweets on Monday morning.

Paul suggested that Brennan was making money on his continued access to sensitive information, and said that he would call for Brennan’s security clearance to be revoked.

“Is John Brennan monetizing his security clearance? Is John Brennan making millions of dollars divulging secrets to the mainstream media with his attacks on [Donald Trump]?” Paul asked on Twitter.

“Today I will meet with the President and I will ask him to revoke John Brennan’s security clearance!”

Why on earth would ANYONE keep a security clearance once they leave the government? Does that give them access to anything or what?

Exactly! Every place where I’ve left employment, I turned over my keys and had all access rights revoked. Brennan is an EX-employee. He should have NO access rights to anything whatsoever!

People previously at high levels in government retain some security clearance to deal with their own records. Supposedly for scholarly and historic reasons. All security clearances are restricted by ‘need to know’.

Brennan should be lined up against a wall and given a blindfold and a cigarette.

Rand Paul - still my favorite Senator

He’s the only one who is pointing out the obvious - unelected, unvetted, CIA deep state cretin Brennan bias and treason is even more serious than Strzok or Comey’s

Why is revoking clearance so difficult that we are still talking about it?

The difference between Rand and other pols is that when Rand speaks he will see it through to a conclusion.

Meaningless unless Brennan has to surrender his Giant Eagle Advantage Card as well.

About the time Sandy Berger got caught stuffing national secrets next to the family jewels, and experienced no consequences, I knew DC had become a joke.

Waaaay back in basic training...going through the PRC-77 radio class they taught us how to use the CEOI, and allied students weren’t allowed in...NOFORN! It was one step above Ralphie’s Ovaltine decoder ring.

Meanwhile 650,000 SecState emails wound up on HummaWeiner’s laptop as 15 year olds wound up on her husband’s laptop.

When a Democrat gets sworn into elected office, how come the nation never gets credit for time served?
