Ex-CIA head John Brennan discussed President Donald Trump removing his security clearance for his involvement in the Hunter Biden laptop letter on MSNBC.
Critics immediately tore into the former intel boss, with one calling him a “pathetic liar” about the laptop’s provenance.
Trump will take the action against the so-called “Spies Who Lie” as part of a flurry of executive orders he’s expected to sign on his first day back in the Oval Office, Fox News
A writer for The Atlantic was bewildered at how many intelligence officials sacrified their credibility to attempt to swing an election in Joe Biden's favor.
President Donald Trump says his administration will move to suspend the security clearances of the more than four dozen former intelligence officials who signed a 2020 letter saying that the Hunter Biden laptop saga bore the hallmarks of a “Russian information operation.
He misrepresented the facts in that executive order because it said that we had suggested that the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation,” Brennan said during an MSNBC interview.
Bolton did, however, publish before getting permission to do so, and anyone who has had a security clearance knows that dodging the review is a violation not just of the letter of one’s clearance conditions but also of the norms and instincts inculcated by the culture of national security.
The report of the special counsel behind the prosecutions against Hunter Biden, David Weiss, was released Monday.

The report on Hunter Biden
Hunter Biden received a “full and unconditional” pardon from his dad, President Joe Biden in December. But this gesture of love, one of President Joe Biden’s final acts while in office, came before Special Counsel Davis Weiss released the final report on his investigation into the president’s son.
Your name was also on the list, but it's not clear to me that you had a clearance, because I thought that the president, President Trump, tried to cancel your clearances back in 2018, if you want to clear that up.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday revoking the security clearance of 51 former intelligence officials who signed a 2020 letter arguing that emails from a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden carried “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation” and that of his former national security adviser John Bolton.
The officials previously wrote a letter claiming that Hunter Biden's laptop had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation."
