      The president’s statement is provided to the press via the press pool, as an undated pdf, and not via a statement from the White House press office.pic.twitter.com/6akqTy6HXz

      The date on President Trump's statement about revoking John Brennan's security clearance? July 26. Three weeks ago. I guess it's just a coincidence that the White House decided to announce this as they struggle to deal with the fallout from Omarosa's book. pic.twitter.com/c6TvfmOD9e

      Note: Per pool reporter, "the original statement from the president the White House sent to the pool list was dated July 26." Pool reporter "was a sent a second, corrected statement without a date." Press has been given copies of both.

      Warner said revoking John Brennan’s clearance is an effort to “distract” the American public and called it an “eerie memory of an enemy’s list” and said that it “smacks of Nixonian types of practices.” He said he believed Mueller’s team’s clearances could be next

      This action is part of a broader effort by Mr. Trump to suppress freedom of speech & punish critics. It should gravely worry all Americans, including intelligence professionals, about the cost of speaking out. My principles are worth far more than clearances. I will not relent. https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1029803310444892162 …

      Brennan: "I am very worried about the message that Mr Trump is sending to others. ... Is this an effort to try to cow individuals [in and out of government] to make sure that they don't say anything critical of Mr. Trump?"

      NOTE —> Despite the July 26 date on the one version of the president's statement, Brennan tells MSNBC that he just found out today, when he heard @PressSec on TV. He said he got no call from the White House before or since.
