Revoked or not is fine with me - but it shouldn’t be used in a 1-off way. Make it general policy or don’t do it at all. This is clearly vindictive.

No argument there.

there are many people who work on projects that are funded by limited time govt contracts. these people are often jobless for weeks/months between funding. should they lose their clearances during that time? I'm aware of STEM/IT type jobs, but I imagine there are many others

This gets into a larger debate on the size and scope of the national security state. But I have in mind former heads of agencies and other high-ranking people who go on to cash in on their access after retiring from government service.

Need a lot more nuance than that. I know folks that have long held security clearances for things like editing technical manuals for defense contractors. If they took a position in WH communications, they’d risk losing their clearance? Seems like a heavy price to pay for service.
