    Trump revokes security clearances for slew of high-profile Democrats

    President Donald Trump decided Saturday to remove security clearances for several Democrats, including former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and New York Attorney General Letitia James, both of whom are vocal Trump critics, Fox News has learned.

    "Bad guy. Take away his passes," Trump told the New York Post of Blinken, Biden's Secretary of State.

    James and Bragg were involved in prosecuting Trump in New York last year and James' office filed a lawsuit on Friday on behalf of 18 other Democratic state attorneys general over the Department of Government Efficiency's access to the Treasury Department's payment system.

    What were James and Bragg doing with security clearances, anyway?

    Why is somebody who said he went to Johns Hopkins asking this? The reasons are very obviously connected to their offices working on cases involving classified materials. National security-related financial crimes, espionage, or certain federal law enforcement partnerships etc.

    Everyone on the left is being paid by CIA-State Dept.
    The congress rubber stamped it all because they're paid off.
    2026 is the next chance to flush out the old crooks, Trump needs to get rid of the election machines.

    this is not as important as one might thought, even for the top officials, it is on the need to know. if you don’t know, you don’t know.

    Yawn, Blinken won't be in a position to require sec-clearance until another Dem Administration and then (whoever) they would nominate a new SoS.
