        How is it unlawful to revoke clearance for someone not working there anymore? Anytime you leave a job in the real world your clearance is revoked before you leave the building

        He nor any former Govt employee should still have it. They become VULNERABLE TARGETS of Foreign Actors... THINK ABOUT IT - Especially when they choose to want to be in a high profile public job - Brennan can be bought period

        Stripping Brennan of his security clearance was authoritarian, vindictive, and unlawful, but no one is going to do anything about it. Everyone will complain, the GOP, will walk faster, the dems will cry on TV, yet nothing will be done until he fires off a few missiles.

        I guess I don't understand why he still had security clearance in the first place. Same with Clapper, Comey, McCabe, Rice, et al. Once you're out of the government, your security clearance should automatically be revoke once the tradition period is over.

        The critics use their right under 1st amendment. John Brennan is a liar in my book. I say the President did the right thing.

        I think if you are no longer in a position there, it should be revoked. You have no business being involved anymore, less you're asked to come in, then they can escort you in. Big cry babies!

        "Critics"? All Americans should be shocked by this authoritarian and unprecedented act. The President oversteps American boundaries and definitely does not have the interests of America first.
