    Ex-CIA Director John Brennan, wasting no time, said Thursday that President Trump revoked his security clearance to try and silence him for speaking out against Trump's friendliness with Russians who influenced the 2016 election.https://usat.ly/2OGKPJY

        A #securityclearance is a PRIVILEGE, not a RIGHT and having one revoked will NOT stop an unhinged, bitter, seething, Communist hack from exercising his deranged #freespeech on cable TV news. @JohnBrennan

        Did you just call him a communist? I guess you didn’t go far in education. North Korea & Russia are the communist governments who have conspired for years to bring down the US GOVERNMENT. The fact there is smoke that POTUS is conspiring with them is troubling.

        Yes, Fester. I did call him that. Maybe it’s you that needs to be a little more educated.https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/index.html …

        An explanation which is complete bs. Brennan has not been silenced; his access to classified information has been terminated. He didn't have a need to know anymore anyway.

        Current intelligence staff need to be able to consult past directors. This hurts US security !

        🤔 STILL speaking about NOT speaking. I think it’s clear he can say whatever he wants. He’s just not privy to 🇺🇸 intel. He doesn’t need it.

        Trump has finally been told the truth about Brennan thru back channels. That's why his security clearance got yanked. What Brennan did was beyond treason but he was following orders. Developing.

        Maybe John "The Red" Brennan can explain how he's being "silenced"?
