Scott Jennings of CNN recently appeared on the Laura Coates show and explained why Trump was right to revoke the security clearances of the Biden family, Hillary Clinton and other Democrats.
Jennings correctly points out that these people repeatedly abused their adjacency to national security in order to use it to go after Trump politically.
As an example, Jennings mentions the ’51 intel experts’ who signed a bogus letter claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
He also suggests that there are too many people in Washington who have this type of clearance anyway.
Partial transcript via Mediaite:
I think when it comes to the Bidens, I mean, given the family’s long history of influence peddling and dealings with shady people overseas, I think cutting them off from national security information is frankly a pretty good idea.
That’s number one. Number two, some of these people and their affiliates and the people they’re associated with at the upper reaches of the Democratic Party have proven time and again that they are willing to abuse their adjacency to national security information for political purposes.
We all remember the 51 intelligence people who signed the Hunter Biden laptop letter, for instance. And so I think what Donald Trump is doing is sending a strong message. No longer are people like this who float in and out of government going to be able to abuse their national security access for political purposes, and let me just tell you, something that goes around comes around because as [David Sanger] just said, they cut off Donald Trump in 2021.
Watch the clip, this is great:

The Democrats set the precedents for all of this. They don’t get to complain now after abusing the system for years to go after Trump.
