Andrew McCabes spokesperson came out with "McCabes Security Clearance was deactivated when he was terminated per the FBI, perhaps the WH should check before throwing shiny objects to the press" bahahahaha Ok, that makes me feel less crazy. I was like how many of them actually still have active clearances? It doesn't work like that. Apparently it does, it gives them clearance to talk to the new directors after they leave, so the FNGs aren't starting from zero and can ask for history/input. TIL ETA I think there is probably a difference between leaving because of Admin change/retirement (Clapper, Rice) and being fired (Comey, McCabe)

Apparently Comey was "read out" of his security clearance when he left.

Have we discussed Comey tweet about warning dems being too far left from this weekend? I saw it briefly on Shaun Kings page but kept scrolling due to the self imposed no news

James Clapper is on the follow up on CNN he just learned about the revocation... he thinks its a pretty petty way to show concerns I mean TBH what does that accomplish? Almost everyone referenced is retired from public service (or even private contracting which, obv, still req's a clearance). They aren't talking about/can't talk about anything sensitive they learned as govvies. You can't Men in Black flashlight them to make them forget what they know. This would serve absolutely no purpose outside of being petty BS.

I saw it briefly on Shaun Kings page but kept scrolling due to the self imposed no news Like I have such a complicated opinion on him. I believe he always had the best interests of the country at heart. That said I could not disagree more with some of his actions and because of that I don’t see how it is his place to even comment. Nothing good will come of pushing away progressives. Nothing. I’ve always been moderate, well, where the hell has being a moderate Democrat gotten us?

I also think trump’s Iran twitter freak out and all this talk about taking away security clearances is a diversion. I feel like something bad is about to happen for him, his camp knows about it, so they talk the crazy to distract.

Flint Water Crisis Puerto Rico Kids in Cages Treason/Russia Cohen Tapes What ever could he be trying to distract from. He is very good at creating chaos, with 24 hour news they dont focus on things for longer than a goldfish so its like we're always moving to the next thing without ever actually solving a damn thing. I think its just his thing to make everyone so exhausted they can't fight.

Bahahahahahahahaha! That was amazing. It's funny, but I do kind of worry it will hurt the Democrat running in Arizona. Even though the woman identified herself as not Kirkpatrick, Kirkpatrick's name was still on the screen on Fox.

But you know if some left wing lunatic threatened to shoot say, Sessions, the WH would be up in arms. If they even have a comment on this it will probably be something about freedom of speech.
