August 17, 2018 - If ex-CIA Director John Brennan did to Andrew Jackson what he did to (Fascist Police States of Amerika President) Donald Trump, he would have lost a lot more than his security clearance.
He would have been challenged to a duel and shot.
“Trump’s performance in Helsinki,” Brennan had said, “exceeds the threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors. It was treasonous.”
Why should the president not strip from a CIA director who calls him a traitor the honor and privilege of a security clearance? Or is a top-secret clearance an entitlement like Social Security?
