    A backlog of more than 700,000 security clearances is facing the Trump administration. Neither the White House nor the FBI is taking responsibility in the high backlog. @jeffpeguescbs reports:pic.twitter.com/ahdkvRKPGl

        That backlog is years old...The White House appointees go str8 to the top of the list. FBI conducts investigations & reports result to the WH, WITHOUT any recommendations. It is the people at the WH who then make decisions about granting or not granting, NOT the FBI. #FactsFirst

        Well from judging by the “great” people that MrICantReadBriefings appoints, it’s not surprising.

        The FBI leadership has proven to be incompetent

        The WH leadership has proven incompetent. You have to start with hiring people without shady pasts then the FBI interview goes much smoother. The WH is having these problems because no one credibility wants to work for Trump. This is the cause of the problem.

        So far Trump has kept the promises he made on the campaign trail. Unlike other politicians, the WH isn't incompetent, they are just being dogged by fake news and liberals that want everything free.

        Deflection, stay focus. The WH has a hiring problem. 40 new top employee are unable to obtain full security clearances because of questionable pasts. Trump can’t get the best because anyone with an ounce of integrity wouldn’t work there.

        The " ought to get Pres Trump," instead of providing solution to do good job for all...there is nothing wrong for check & balances, but if you have hided your crimes & corruption & go out-there & victimizing others...
