Trump revokes security clearances – Blinken, Sullivan, and Biden shut out!

In a bombshell move, President Donald Trump has revoked security clearances for several high-profile Democrats. The list includes former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. New York Attorney General Letitia James also lost her access. Trump made the decision just a day after stripping former President Joe Biden of his clearances.

Trump’s tough words

Bad guy. Take away his passes,” Trump told the New York Post about Blinken, who served as Biden’s Secretary of State. Blinken, a key player in Biden’s administration, is now locked out of classified information.

Bragg and James: No more access!

Bragg and James have been fierce Trump opponents. They led legal battles against him in New York last year. James, in particular, went after Trump’s business empire. Just one day before losing her clearance, she joined 18 other Democratic attorneys general in a lawsuit targeting federal government financial access.

More names on the list

Biden’s Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, as well as attorneys Andrew Weissmann, Mark Zaid, and Norm Eisen, also lost security access. Eisen has a long history of clashing with Trump. He played a major role in the first impeachment case and currently represents FBI agents fighting to remain anonymous after investigating the January 6 Capitol riot.

Biden blocked!

This latest move follows Trump’s shocking decision to revoke Biden’s access to classified intelligence. On Truth Social, Trump declared: “There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information.

Trump argued that Biden set the precedent himself. “In 2021, he stopped the 45th President of the United States (ME!) from getting intelligence briefings,” Trump reminded his followers. At the time, Biden claimed Trump was acting “erratically.”

Hur Report bombshell

Trump also pointed to the recent Hur Report, which painted Biden as forgetful and unreliable with classified information. “The Hur Report revealed that Biden suffers from ‘poor memory’ and, even in his ‘prime,’ could not be trusted,” Trump wrote.

Trump ended his message with a fiery conclusion: “I will always protect our National Security — JOE, YOU’RE FIRED. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

With these drastic security clearance revocations, Trump is making it clear: his administration is taking no chances. The shake-up is sure to send shockwaves through Washington.
