Trump Revokes More Security Clearances

President Donald J. Trump stripped Joe Biden of his security clearance yesterday, but he’s not done. New York Attorney General Letitia James, former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg also lost theirs as the president aims to curb the flow of information to people who frankly cannot be trusted. Hordes of these folks intentionally spread misinformation about Hunter Biden’s laptop to influence an election. Their privileges get revoked (via NY Post):

President Trump has ordered security clearances stripped from a new hit list of antagonists.
Just days after revoking Joe Biden’s access to classified information and secure federal buildings — “because I don’t trust him” — Trump said his new top target is ex-Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who orchestrated the “Dirty 51” letter from former intelligence officials on the eve of the 2020 election.
The infamous missive falsely claimed that Hunter Biden’s laptop, the contents of which The Post revealed, was Russian disinformation.
Blinken’s security clearances will be revoked, following the same presidential directive aimed at Biden and the 51 ex-spooks last week, Trump told The Post in an exclusive interview.
“Bad guy. Take away his passes,” he said of Blinken.

New York Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg join the new group of eight Democrat foes Trump plans to punish by revoking any access to classified information and barring their entry to federal facilities.
The president said they all will be given “exactly the same” punishment as Biden and the Dirty 51 as part of his administration’s vow to hold government officials accountable for actions he regards as election interference or the mishandling of classified information.
Bragg prosecuted Trump last year in the so-called “hush money” case and James brought a civil fraud case against the president for supposedly exaggerating his wealth when applying for bank loans.
The move is regarded as more symbolic than consequential for the New York lawfare duo.

The other targets Trump disclosed to The Post include Biden’s former National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, who also was chief foreign policy adviser to Hillary Clinton during her failed 2016 presidential bid when he notoriously helped foment the Trump-Russia collusion hoax.
Also in Trump’s sights are Biden’s Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, who was involved in overseeing lawfare investigations against Trump and coordinating the DOJ response to the Jan. 6 riot.
She also helped orchestrate the Russia hoax while working as an aide to President Obama.
[…]
Next in line are anti-Trumpers Andrew Weissman, the lead prosecutor in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russiagate investigation of Trump, who frequently maligns the former president in his role as an MSNBC contributor; lawyer Mark Zaid, who represented Eric Ciaramella, the CIA analyst identified as the whistleblower in Trump’s impeachment in 2019 over a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky; and Norm Eisen, special counsel to the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee during the impeachment.

🚨 #BREAKING: President Donald Trump is taking away the security clearances from the following individuals.

Per the NYP, they also won’t be allowed to enter secure federal…

Mark Zaid — who represented the Ukraine impeachment saga’s Eric Ciaramella and a group of the bullshit Hunter Biden laptop letter signers — calls having his security clearance revoked by Trump a “Red Badge of Courage” (a bloody wound received by soldiers in war). https://t.co/NwzXg4mIA6
