    In an unprecedented show of support, more than one dozen top former intelligence officials sign letter backing former CIA Director John Brennan, after the White House revoked his security clearance. https://abcn.ws/2PgkumZ pic.twitter.com/bEfNSBycg2

        When you no longer have the job why would you need a security clearance.

        To help advise those currently holding the position. It’s been this way forever.

        Then it is time to change this policy. There is no reason why anyone needs security clearance when they no longer work there.

        BTW: All these US lawmakers who were in Moscow in July are making statements supporting Trump’s stripping of Brennan’s clearance. This doesn’t look like collusion. This looks like a hostile takeover.

        Thank you, Mr. Brennan for your service. You have the right to speak your opinions. Keep doing it, no matter what. I will STILL be listening to you and your wisdom along with others who may lose their clearances due to baby trump’s tantrum. It is a honor, Sir. A Veteran

        You have a picture of a man who lied before Congress and to ABC and is one of the many in the Democratic machine who should be indicted in the biggest political scandal in the history of our country. These are despicable felons- yet u don’t have guts to investigate & report.

        It is an unprecedented show of cowardice and cover up. There are multiple reasons Brennan should have been revoked. Not least of which is violating CIA requirement for keeping clearance: act like a currently employed agent. All signers know this. & of course our MSM is complicit

        Everyone who signed the letter should also have their Security Clearances revoked.
